  2. 6. Planning the healthy construction workplace through risk assessment and design methods

    Author : Romuald Rwamamara; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Construction Engineering and Management; Byggproduktion;

    Abstract : The construction industry is still one of the highest risk industries as far as work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are concerned. These disorders are the most frequently cited injury to workers, affecting many construction workers in Sweden. READ MORE

  4. 7. I-girder Composite Bridges with Lateral Bracing : Improved load distribution

    Author : Victor Vestman; Peter Collin; Robert Hällmark; Hans Petursson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; assessment; bridge; composite bridge; steel-concrete composite; I-girder; case study; horizontal trusses; lateral bracing; rehabilitation; strengthening; torsional stiffness; upgrading; Byggkonstruktion; Structural Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the subject of lateral bracing between the bottom flanges of I-girder composite bridges. The focus is on the impact of adding lateral bracing on existing bridges, as well as on new bridges. READ MORE

  5. 8. Industrial Bridge Engineering -Structural developments for more efficient bridge construction

    Author : Peter Harryson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; product and productivity developments; materials developments; Keywords: Bridges; fibre-reinforced polymers.; industrial construction process; steel-fibre-reinforced ultra-high-performance concrete; design; structural joints; structural developments;

    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

  6. 9. Structural Control and Identification of Civil Engineering Structures

    Author : Tarek Edrees; Francesc Pozo; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Construction Engineering and Management; Byggproduktion; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : In general, the main purpose of a structural control system is to apply powerful control techniques that improve the behaviour of civil structures under various kinds of dynamic loading. The first part of this thesis presents novel applications of posicast and input shaping control schemes that have never previously been applied in the field of structural control. READ MORE

  7. 10. Prefabricated composite bridges : a study of dry deck joints

    Author : Robert Hällmark; Ian May; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
