This study documents important aspects of bolt assembly performance in structural steel
connections at elevated temperatures that have not been the subject of detailed …

This paper presents a review of recent studies of the behaviour of steel–concrete composite
structures in fire, including an assessment of research investigations and their implications …

In fire events, to utilize catenary effect and accommodate large deformation in beams
demands a sufficient deformation capacity and ductility in steel bolted connections, which is …

The behaviour of steel joints is complex and requires the proper consideration of a multitude
of phenomena, ranging from material non-linearity (plasticity, strain-hardening), non-linear …

RESUMO A maioria dos materiais estruturais de Construção Civil tem suas propriedades
mecânicas reduzidas, quando submetidos a temperaturas elevadas. Por isso, a capacidade …

This study investigated the mechanical properties and impact resistance of one-part
engineered geopolymer composites (EGC), with a particular focus on the low-velocity impact …

This paper presents experimental results of temperature distribution in fire in four typical
types of steel–concrete composite joint (web cleat, fin plate, flush endplate and flexible …

A detailed finite element (FE) study is presented investigating the factors affecting the failure
modes of high strength and stainless steel bolt assemblies under tensile force at ambient …

The paper reports on an experimental programme to investigate the global structural
behaviour of a compartment in the three-storey steel frame building in a plant of the Mittal …

A risk assessment method was proposed to evaluate the evacuation safety in the collapse of
a large steel-structured gymnasium caused by localized fire. The criterion for safety …
