21. Industrial Bridge Engineering -Structural developments for more efficient bridge construction
Abstract : In recent years, growing concern about the deficiencies and lack of efficiency in the construction industry has highlighted the need of research in order to make substantial improvements, rectify incongruities and succeed in progressive development. For bridges, the advantages that can be expected from an industrial construction process are especially interesting. READ MORE

22. Strengthening of concrete structures by the use of mineral based composites : system and design models for flexure and shear
Abstract : A great number of society's resources are invested in existing concrete structures, such as bridges, tunnels, different kind of buildings etc. All of these structures have both an expected function and an expected life span. However, both the function and the life span can be influenced by external factors, e.g. READ MORE

23. Prestressed hybrids of AAC and HPC : The BCE (Block Composed Element) building system. A conceptual study
Abstract : There is an important potential for a development of a building system, if the present AACblock plants are completed with high performance concrete and pre-stressing technique. This can be done as a continuation of a present AAC production or in a site factory. Hybrid cooperation between AAC and concrete is not a new technology. READ MORE

24. Tensile behaviour of mineral-based composites
Abstract : Externally bonded fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) systems have shown to be a robust and durable way to repair, or strengthen concrete structures. Epoxy, as the most common bonding agent, provides excellent force transfer, and bonds well to the base substrate to the as well as to the strengthening material. READ MORE

25. Development of connections for fibre reinforced bridge elements and an analysis of sustainability
Abstract : The deterioration of existing bridge structures due to a number of causes has led researchersto pursue new construction materials with high performance, such as fibre reinforced polymer(FRP) composite materials. The inherent properties of FRP materials are their light weight,high strength and high resistance to aggressive environments. READ MORE
