Shear cracking in concrete box-girder bridges, which could cause excessive deflection
during the serviceability limit state, cannot be effectively avoided by code-guided design …

This paper focuses on a structural reliability-based assessment of clay brick unreinforced
masonry (URM) walls subjected to uniformly distributed out-of-plane loads in one-way …

Sustainably sourced engineered wood products (EWP) such as cross-laminated timber
(CLT) floor panels are viable alternatives to conventional concrete and steel, however their …

Size effects are known to be relevant in the shear transfer mechanisms of quasi-brittle
materials like concrete. Bažant proposed an asymptotic approximation between plasticity …

Rail traffic loads in Australia are based on AS5100 Part 2, which stipulates a number of
simulated axle groups, including a simulated locomotive, called the 300LA load model. The …
