Bolt loosening is a critical factor that triggers collapse of wind turbine tower structures, and a
fast and accurate bolt loosening detection is of significant importance. This paper proposes …

We investigated the block shear performance of 16 steel angle specimens connected by
double-line bolts. Among these specimens, 10 were made of S690 high-strength steel and 6 …

Block shear is a common failure mode for bolted-steel shear connections. However, limited
research has been conducted on the block shear failure of bolted high-strength steel (HSS) …

A full-scale test programme for reinforced single-coped beams with slender web (RSCBSW)
connections is reported in this paper. The test matrix included reinforcement types and …

Coped steel beams have been commonly adopted in steel frame structure construction, but
the existence of coped regions severely limits the ultimate load carrying capacity and will …

This research investigates the flexural behavior of aluminum alloy coral sea-sand seawater
concrete (AA-CSSC) composite beams for marine engineering applications, addressing the …

In this work, a comprehensive parametric study, based on a robust finite element analysis
validated by existing experimental results, was conducted to investigate the effects of plate …

This research study presents an investigation of the structural behaviour and local web
buckling resistance of single-coped beam connections with slender web. Single-coped …

This paper reports a numerical study on the local web buckling strength and behaviour of
single-coped beam with slender web (SCBSW). First, finite element (FE) models of SCBSW …

Available test data on block shear behaviour of coped beams with double bolt-line
connections are quite limited, and earlier investigations found that the test block shear …
