The cold formed steel section are increasingly used as a structural elements in low rise buildings recent times, due to the advantages like economic production, easy transportation, labor cost and high strength weight ratio. In current work G+3 storied building frame is studied for seismic wind load using Staad-pro software. Light gauge taken beam slab elements. analysis carried out by Equivale...

Efficient maintenance and upgrading of a building during its lifecycle are difficult because a cementitious finish uses materials and parts with low disassembly properties. Additionally, the reuse and recycling processes during building demolition also present numerous problems from the perspective of environmental technology. In this study, an induction heating (IH) method was used to disassem...

This paper summarize the principles main methods for structural dynamic identification and presents the experiences in using operational modal analysis techniques in Civil Engineering field. Shown black-box modelling of system for describes the input-output relation of the system and given its application to 11 storey reinforced concrete building. The monitoring, experimental details and data-p...

-S 237 WELDING JOURNAL We depend in our everyday life on the performance of vast quantities of steel, which we use without giving it a second thought. This is possible because the material is reliable and cheap (weight for weight, some 1000 times cheaper than potato chips). Yet, there are remarkable technologies and sciences working behind the scenes to create ever better steels that can be ass...

This paper covers one of the building blocks required to complete a mechanistic CO2 / H2S corrosion model: electrochemistry of carbon steel CO2 corrosion in the presence of traces of H2S (3-250 ppm in the gas phase). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and linear polarisation resistance were used to investigate the mechanism of CO2/H2S corrosion in a glass cell at room temperature, at atmosp...

The proposed light-frame structure comprises steel columns for vertical loads and an innovative bracing system to efficiently resist seismic actions. This seismic force resisting system consists of a light timber frame braced with an Oriented Strand Board (OSB) sheet and an external technoprene plaster-infilled slab. Steel brackets are used as foundation and floor connections. Experimental cycl...

535] A new and unique building vibration isolation pad has been developed utilizing alternating layers of elastomer and carbon fiber mesh. The carbon mesh reinforcement provides several distinct advantages over traditional steel plate reinforcement. Lower natural frequencies and/or smaller operating heights can be obtained for a given load. In addition, the carbon mesh forms both chemical and m...
