The structural pre-dimensioning presents simple formulations for the determination of the initial dimensions of the structural elements of a building, with the intention of minimizing major subsequent changes. The study ...

Bamboo's performance as longitudinal reinforcement in reinforced concrete structures can be successful if safety boundary conditions are considered. The objective of this work is to evaluate the feasibility of replacing ...

Reinforced concrete structures are widely used in the construction world. In the past, due to lack of knowledge of the materials used and the difficulty of laboratory tests, many buildings were oversized. Not only is this ...

Usually, the structural analysis of buildings in reinforced concrete is carried out considering the connections between beams and columns as rigid. However, experimental studies demonstrate the occurrence of relative ...

This work presents a technical and cost comparison for the results of a structural calculation obtained by the Eberick software and in manual form. The technical analyses took into account the final computation efforts at ...

The primordiality of structural rehabilitation has become increasingly frequent. The usage of concrete did not foresee the appearance of premature degradation in improvements and works of art. Change of usage of the building, ...

The present study aims at the structural analysis of existing slabs where the information about the structure is not known, and it is necessary to determine the load capacity of the structural element. In these cases, a ...

Reinforced concrete buildings are increasingly occupying the vertical planes of cities, with the recession of the Brazil's economy the market had to reinvent itself to maintain profitable enterprises, responsible for a ...

This course conclusion paper aims to analyze two different structural projects by applying the Load Standards for the calculation of building structures (ABNT NBR 6120), which was recently updated from its version from ...
