This study experimentally investigates the use of innovative C-FRP ropes for the strengthening of reinforced concrete columns. For the purposes of this research, two full-scale specimens (column/beam) with identical geometry and identical...

The draft edition 2026/1 of the Model Administrative Regulation for Technical Building Rules (MVV TB) [1] marks an important milestone for earthquake design in Germany. The draft proposes replacing DIN 4149 [2] with the provisions of DIN EN 1998-1...

This study focuses on the analysis of the load transfer mechanism in grouted, high rail support points of the Elastic Clip Fastener (ECF) system using finite element analysis (FEA). The ECF system was developed for use on slab tracks and, in the...

The General Method addresses stability verification for steel structures subjected to compression and bending moment, including members with irregular geometries or complex loading and support conditions. Previous research has evaluated the accuracy...

In the context of current megatrends such as digitalization, the transport revolution and changes in religiosity, there are significant challenges and opportunities for the reuse of existing building structures. In particular, obsolete building...
