CARRYING CAPACITY ASSESSMENT AND STRENGTHENING OF REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES OPERATING IN CHEMICALLY AGGRESSIVE ENVIRONMENT
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper presents a case of an industrial building in the chemical works, in which intensive production processes caused corrosion and weakened structural members. The results of investigations and static strength analysis are provided. They were necessary to assess the reliability of the structure operating under chemical corrosion conditions corresponding to the XA exposure class. The repair plan, already implemented, together with selected components of the building structural upgrade design are presented.

ESTIMATION, BASED ON THE MATURITY FUNCTION, OF THE STRENGTH OF EARLY AGE CONCRETE CURED AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURE
In mass production of concrete precast units, it is important to optimise technology which would ensure high early age compressive strength of concrete, and also follow the principles of sustainable manufacturing and red...
THE ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT OF MECHANICAL-BIOLOGICAL WASTE TREATMENT BY LCA METHOD
The computer program IWM-PL for the life cycle assessment (LCA) of waste was described. The environmental impact of the mechanical-biological treatment (MBT) technology was estimated. Final report shows that the analysed...
THE USE OF PASSIVE SHIELD TO REDUCE THE GAINS OF IRRADIATION
The paper presents the efficiency analysis of the passive shield which is opaque lightweight steel shell made of perforated panels arranged on the outer side of the building. The simplified calculation methodology is giv...
NON-LINEAR MASTIC CHARACTERISTICS BASED ON THE MODIFIED MSCR (MULTIPLE STRESS CREEP RECOVERY) TEST
Mastic containing asphalt in its composition is an example of a viscoelastic material. It is an effective binder in asphalt. It consists of a filler (<0.063 mm) and asphalt mixed in the right proportions. Just like in as...
THE ANALYSIS OF THERMAL COMFORT IN THE SCHOOL AND THE WEDDING HOUSE
The environment, where people are staying, should provide thermal comfort. It means that the equilibrium of the amount of heat produced in the human body and the amount of heat lost to the environment should be kept. To...
