In this paper, a free analysis program is presented for the verification of ultimate and serviceability limit states of reinforced or prestressed concrete sections with polygonal shape submitted to axial forces and biaxial ...

This work presents design and executive procedures for pre-cast slabs with unidirectional ribs, which are one of the most used construction elements for small buildings in the country, discussing aspects related to ...

Even the small buildinging column may have a buckled. It s denoted the difficulty to design and detail this type of element. So this work intends make a description and application of a several simplified process of presizing ...

Structural analysis of framed structures using discrete method, wherein, splitting them into elements with simplified considerations, can bring not satisfactory results or end up using very high safety coefficient to the ...

This work shows the methodology for standardization of quality programs like NBR ISO 9001:2000 employed in construction of reinforced concrete structure for multi floor building, and relationship of this standard to the ...

This research deals with the experimental investigation of time dependent deformations in partially precast floors with composite beam-and-block floor systems made with reinforced concrete lattice joist through the measurement ...

The demand for simple and efficient solutions is increasing in civil construction, wherein the reduction of costs and the increase of speed and versatility within the applications are required. Due to its advantages, ...

This work presents the main recommendations for the design of precast slabs strips, comprising precast lattices and infill elements, strengthened by cast-in-situ concrete overlay. Based on Brazilian codes of practice for ...

The execution of reinforced concrete structures is a construction stage that has significant importance in the overall context of a work and involves materials, suppliers, work fronts in the workplace and a large number ...

The civil construction more than ever is challenged by the circumstances faced by the country, the economic crisis experienced in these last few years puts into perspective the necessity of more rational choices avoiding ...
