The age of currently operated concrete airfield pavements in Poland exceeds 30 years opera-tion period many times. Such a long working life of airfield pavements forced to search for the efficient and fast technologies of their reconstruction. The article described in detail the technologies of fast reconstruction of airfield concrete slabs using prefabricated slabs. The addressed technology guarantees the reconstruction and even the improvement of the condi-tion of load-bearing capacity of mentioned airfield slabs which was confirmed during labora-tory tests, field tests and practically verified in the real operation in the International Airport Kraków-Balice.

Abstract This paper presents an analysis of timber-concrete composite beams. Said composite beams consist of rectangular timber beams and concrete slabs poured into the steel sheeting. The concrete slab is connected with the timber beam using special shear connectors. The authors of this article are trying to patent these connectors. The article contains results from a numerical analysis. It is demonstrated that the type of steel sheeting used as a lost formwork has an influence on the load-bearing capacity and stiffness of the timber-concrete composite beams.

In the course of the exploitation of building structures frequently situations turn up, in which the structure is not adequately used (it may, for instance, be exposed to considerably greater loads than previously been intended). In the state of an unforeseen overload of the structure, essential reserves of their load-bearing capacity may be disclosed in the case of the self-acting work as a flexible strand. The paper presents the results of investigations concerning the influence of the parameters of reinforcing steel on the mechanism of the destruction of six single-span models of narrow reinforced concrete slabs, in which a horizontal shift of the supports was not possible. The tests were carried out on narrow slabs with the dimensions 3860×480×100 mm. The results of the tests were compared with analytical calculations.

Three methods for determining the load-bearing capacity of bored conical piles are presented, considering the additional forces of the ground rebound along their inclined side surface under vertical load. It is proposed to determine the bearing capacity according to the results of field tests using the coefficient of transition from the maximum permissible settlement of the building foundation to the settlement of the pile obtained during static tests. Its value varies from 0.1 to 0.3 depending on the angle of the pile taper. To determine the bearing capacity of the empirical method, tabular data of the ground rebound forces on the side surface of the piles are developed. It depends on the strength properties of the base soil, the angle of the pile taper and the depth of the location of the changing cross-section of the pile along the length. The process of compressing the soil in a drilled well with an elastic cylindrical pressiometer is close to the occurrence of a ground rebound when it is pushed apart by the side surface of a conical pile during sediment under load. It is proposed to determine the ground resistance on the side surface of conical piles according to the same dependence as when processing the results of pressiometric tests of soils, taking into account the introduction of a correction factor depending on the parameters of the pile. The calculated load-bearing capacity of the piles, determined by the proposed methods, differs from the actual load-bearing capacity, determined by the results of static tests of full-scale piles, within 10 %. However, these methods need to be improved with the accumulation of statistical data for testing full-scale piles in different ground conditions.

The calculation of the strength of concrete slabs load bearing capacity does not take into account synthetic sheets impact while calculating concrete-fi lled textile fl oor-mats. Further studies are proposed to assess the impact of sheets in laboratory environments. The authors base their study on the properties of concrete-fi lled textile fl oor-mats as fl exible beams and on synthetic sheets impact on strength indicators. The paper presents a laboratory study results obtained under diff erent conditions of textile synthetic sheets impact on concrete-fi lled textile fl oor-mats load bearing capacity. It provides a function to determine a mat thickness from the condition of its strength.
