PARTIAL FACTORS IN MODELLING OF STEEL STRUCTURES RELIABILITY ACCORDING TO EUROCODES
Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 16
Abstract
Problems associated with the estimation of partial factors for structural systems, subsystems and buckling of individual elements are dealt with in this paper. Aspects related to resistance factors for the section resistance and member resistance are in particular referred to. The Eurocode’s approach of resistance partial factor calibration assisted by experimental data for subframe systems is also summarized.

HYBRID BRIDGE STRUCTURES MADE OF FRP COMPOSITE AND CONCRETE
Despite many advantages over the conventional construction materials, the contemporary development of FRP composites in bridge engineering is limited due to high initial cost, low stiffness (in case of glass fibers) and...
NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF DEFLECTIONS OF MULTI-LAYERED BEAMS
The paper concerns the rheological bending problem of wooden beams reinforced with embedded composite bars. A theoretical model of the behaviour of a multi-layered beam is presented. The component materials of this beam...
Ten principles for the treatment of post mining landscapes
From 2000 to 2010, the Internationale Bauausstellung (IBA) Fürst-PücklerLand has been active in shaping the post-mining landscape in Lusatia (Brandenburg, East Germany). Based on IBA’s experiences, we have formulated ten...
THE PROBLEM OF FORM IN OBJECTS UNDER REDEVELOPMENT (ON THE BASIS OF BYTOM MARKET SQUARE REDEVELOPMENT DESIGN)
The author believes that if a designer has performed many design or research works entailing solutions to various problems, it is recommendable to consider and become aware of previously used methods whose application mi...
Activity of soil enzymes in rhizosphere of scots pine as a marker of the quality of wooded, formerly arable, soils
The purpose of this paper is the assessment of the influence of rhizosphere on the enzymatic activity of formerly arable soils afforested with Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris L.). A comparison was made between the enzyme ac...
