Salt crystallization is a major cause of weathering of mortars, including plasters and renders. In the last decade, the use of mixed-in salt crystallization inhibitors in mortars has been proposed as a solution to improve the durability of this material with respect to salt decay. Laboratory characterization and accelerated weathering tests have...

The new cable-stayed arch bridge Tegenbosch (Eindhoven, the Netherlands) needed an assessment of its dynamic behaviour under wind loading due to its slender design. Because of wind-induced vibration issues on a number of bridges in the Netherlands with similar designs, it was decided to examine if vortex excitation, wind-rain induced vibration,...

This paper describes the application of the Frequency Domain Decomposition (FDD) technique on measured acceleration data on the residential tower New Orleans in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The goal of this study is to determine and analyse multiple natural frequencies and mode shapes of this tower. A measurement campaign was setup on the 158 m...

Future energy infrastructures are expected to be smart, with the application of energy storage and demand-side management strategies. To size the energy storage and assess the flexibility of the heat demand in a district, insight into its heat demand profile is a prerequisite. A tool was developed to generate the hourly space heating demand of a...

Analyzing energy consumption is currently of great interest to define efficient energy management strategies. In particular, studying the evolution of the behavior of the consumption pattern can allow energy policies to be defined according to the time of the year. In this sense, this work proposes to study the evolution of energy behavior...

Train axle load measurements performed between 2012 and 2019 at 87 locations in the Dutch railway network are used to evaluate fatigue of railway bridges. The theoretical fatigue damage using realistic influence lines is determined for the measured loads and for the load model from Eurocode EN 1991-2 Annex D. It appears that this load model is ...

The fatigue life of orthotropic steel bridge decks in road bridges depends on the load effects exerted by heavy lorries. The contact surface of tyres is one of the important variables. Measurements described in the literature demonstrate that the actual tyre contact surfaces of today's traffic representative for Europe are shorter and slightly...

Bitumen rejuvenators are used to improve or restore the physical and mechanical 12 performance of aged bitumen. Traditional bitumen rejuvenators have been a product of 13 crude‐oil. As crude‐oil production declines and the environmental and financial costs of 14 crude‐oil increase, there is an urgent need to identify more environmentally...

For the assessment of concrete structures in the new fib Model Code 2020 (fib MC 2020), three categories are distinguished: (1) the residual capacity of existing structures without damage, (2) the residual capacity of structures suffering deterioration, and (3) the residual capacity of structures with noncompliant details. In the accompanying...

: Self-tapping screw is a new generation of fasteners which is often inserted into the face of timber members at an angle to develop stiff and strong connections. The withdrawal stiffness of self-tapping screws is an important property that influences the performance of the connection. The designs of composite timber hybrids incorporating...

Accurate information from monitoring of structures plays a critical role in making informed decisions regarding structural safety control and maintenance needs. Unfortunately, there are several gaps in the existing standards and the monitoring practices at local, national, and transnational (e.g., European) levels. The wide diversity of assets...
