Abstract Built-up CFS column is a type of structure that can be classified as an industrialized building system. This column has been widely used in the construction industry. It has relatively lightweight, easy to fabricate and provide efficient installation, thus suitable for the construction with difficulty inaccessibility. However, the main issue that arises from the built-up CFS column is its bearing capacity. The ultimate strength and displacement of the built-up CFS column are prominently governed by its section properties such as size and thickness. Therefore, this study intends to investigate the effects of section properties on the structural behaviour and failure mode of built-up CFS columns. The built-up CFS column was modelled in the three-dimensional using WELSIM, taking into account the nonlinearities of geometry, material criterion and contact surface. It was found that the built-up CFS column attains ultimate strength of 53.33 kN to 210.6 kN and displacement around 1.33 mm to 2.98 mm. When the size and thickness of square hollow sections are increased, the ultimate strength increases simultaneously but the displacement shows a decrement trend. Under compression force, it was observed that the built-up CFS column suffers distortional and flexural buckling as well as connector and stiffener failures.

. Abstract. Tests on TCFT-WB, including 11 specimens with binding bars and 5 without binding bars under axial compression were carried out. The effects of parameters on the behavior of specimens such as failure mode, bearing capacity and ductility are analyzed to provide experimental data for the following research. The formula to calculate ultimate strength of TCFT-WB columns under axial compression are deduced from the constitutive relationship of TCFT-WB. The calculated results are compared with those calculated by FEM analyses, showing the proposed formula can give reasonable predictions on the ultimate strength of TCFT-WB stub columns under axial compression.

The inheritance and innovation of ancient architecture decoration art is an important way for the development of the construction industry. The data process of traditional ancient architecture decoration art is relatively backward, which leads to the obvious distortion of the digitalization of ancient architecture decoration art. In order to improve the digital effect of ancient architecture decoration art, based on neural network, this paper combines the image features to construct a neural network-based ancient architecture decoration art data system model, and graphically expresses the static construction mode and dynamic construction process of the architecture group. Based on this, three-dimensional model reconstruction and scene simulation experiments of architecture groups are realized. In order to verify the performance effect of the system proposed in this paper, it is verified through simulation and performance testing, and data visualization is performed through statistical methods. The result of the study shows that the digitalization effect of the ancient architecture decoration art proposed in this paper is good.

Concrete splitting failure due to tension load can occur when fastening systems are located close to an edge or corner of a concrete member, especially in thin members. This failure mode has not been extensively investigated for anchor channels. Given the current trend in the construction industry towards more slender concrete members, this failure mode will become more and more relevant. In addition, significantly different design rules in the United States and Europe indicate the need for harmonization between codes. Therefore, an extensive numerical parametric study was carried out to evaluate the influence of member thickness, edge distance, and anchor spacing on the capacity of anchor channels in uncracked and unreinforced concrete members. One of the main findings was that the characteristic edge distance depends on the member thickness and can be larger than 3hef (hef = embedment depth) for thin members. Based on the numerical and experimental test results, modifications of the design recommendations for the splitting failure mode are proposed. Overall, the authors recommend performing the splitting verification separately from the concrete breakout to design anchor channels in thin members more accurately.

The complex three-dimensional traffic construction often occur when the lower structure cannot bear the construction load and other special cases, indicating the need for temporary reinforcement of the lower structure. In this paper, combined with a project construction example, various temporary reinforcement technologies are adopted to solve the insufficient bearing capacity during understructure construction, which poses a serious danger, to ensure synchronous construction of the understructure and viaduct. Compared with the traditional construction technology, the temporary reinforcement technology proposed in this paper features the advantages of saving project cost and time and has achieved better economic and social benefits.

The aim of this study was to evaluate through analytical calculation, two-dimensional elastic modeling, and three-dimensional plastic modeling, the bearing capacity and failure modes of composite hollow trusses bi-supported with a 15 meter span, varying the number of central Vierendeel panels. The study found the proportion span/3 - span/3 - span/3, as the ideal relationship for the truss - Vierendeel - truss lengths, because by increasing the proportion of the length occupied by the central Vierendeel panels, the new system loses stiffness and no longer supports the load stipulated in the project. Furthermore, they can start presenting excessive vertical displacements and insufficient resistance to external shear forces acting on the panels.

From the 921 earthquake to the major typhoons, including the Morakot typhoon, they damaged original landscape of rivers in Taiwan. In recent years, it alleged that abutment bridge exposed to the most serious security problems. Because of bridge piers in addition to the face of long-term river erosion, the flood on the pier will produce localized erosion near the bridge. The pier will be due to inadequate bearing capacity, resulting in subsidence, displacement, bridge version accompanied by tilting and even caving. The river erosion of soil around the piers deposits and production of contraction will often reduce the bearing capacity. Therefore, how to accurately estimate the scour depth, calculate piers to withstand water impact and analyses its stability for preventing injuries in the first place is the current pressing issues. In this study, three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) analysis program Plaxis 3D foundation is used. Polaris second bridge is selected for analysis. Based on local scouring of the model and various numerical variable conditions, the parameter of bridge pier is studied.

Through the experiments of four concrete composite slabs under static loading to compare their flexural properties (deflection, bearing capacity, failure mode), this paper discusses the influence of composite slabs flexural behavior on different length of additional bars and sectional effective height. The results showed that they will improve the bearing capacity effectively by reasonably increasing the sectional effective height and controlling the length of additional bars.

The churches of the Broumov region are renowned for their unique baroque architecture, their distinct shapes, and sizes. They are an integral part of the Czech cultural heritage. If you analyze the churches, it becomes evident that both the local geological conditions and the municipal economic situation have played an important role in their current condition. Moreover, the local construction industry has been significantly affected by historical events. In this article we would like to present the effects of those factors on the current state of selected churches, namely on the bearing capacity of their walls. Besides being very interesting, it also plays a key role in the maintenance and the potential reconstruction of the churches.
