Cable Structures
High-strength steel cables are very efficient for long-span roof construction. They resist loads solely by axial tension. While the cables are […]
Cable-Suspended Bridges for Rail Loading
Because of flexibility and susceptibility to vibration under dynamic loads, pure suspension bridges are rarely constructed for railway spans. They are
Cables
The concept of bridging long spans with cables, flexible tension members, antecedes recorded history (Art. 15.1). Known ancient uses of metal
Cable-Stayed Bridge Analysis
The static behavior of a cable-stayed girder can best be gaged from the simple, two-span example of Fig. 15.54. The girder
Calking Compounds
These sealers are used mostly with traditional materials such as masonry, with relatively small windows, and at other points where motion
Cable-Supported Structures
A cable is a linear structural member, like a bar of a truss. The cross-sectional dimensions of a cable relative to
Cantilever Retaining Walls
Under the ACI 318 Building Code, cantilever retaining walls are designed as slabs. Specific Code requirements are not given for
Calculational method of seismic microzonation
Calculational method of SMZ is used in order to analyse features of soil behavior with introduction of definite engineeringgeological structure characteristics
Calibration of the model using data of full scale test
The model shown in Fig. 5 was calibrated using records of vibrations and tilts of the bridge obtained during a full
