Eighteen beams were tested to failure, showing the increase in the shear resistance of nine previously cracked beams and strengthened with the web bars. Repair procedures are easier and cheaper than conventional methods, which leads to obtain fast repairs, commonly needed in structural rehabilitation ...
Another shortcoming of the presence of the web openings in the beams is the increase in the susceptibility of RC beams to reinforcement corrosion due to the increase in the exposed surfaces of the beams to outside environment. An effective solution for the reinforcement corrosion is the adoption ...
Also on the left bars, above the turn signals, is the headlight switch. Pedego equipped the Moto with a huge LED headlight that is very suitable for dawn, dusk, or night riding. It also has low/high beams, which isn’t a first for me on an ebike but is uncommon. And it’s plent...
individuals from across the country. Well, it looks like Fat Weekend will be scaled down a bit this year due to an inability to align schedules. A quorum of chubby friends will be traveling to New York, but we’ll be spending most of our time at bars or restaurants, so no brew ...
NEW YORK, Oct. 17, 2023 — There wasn’t a soul in town who didn’t know what Bobby Blessing’s father had done, and would have kept on doing if he weren’t behind bars. He had murdered 27 innocent people. But Bobby knew that number was higher. Much higher, most likely. Bobby’...
I reinforced the deck over the summer with three more posts and beams; overkill for the weight of a hot tub. We purchased sixty feet of six guage wire, a fifty amp single pole breaker switch for the panel and a GFCI cutoff switch box to place five feet from the tub. So, Saturday mo...
On the top of each beam 21 is a roller coaster unit 27 which consists of side bars 29, cross pins 31 and rollers 33 rotary on the pins. The coasters 27 constitute anti-friction devices which roll along the flat top surfaces of the beams 21. They support a movable roll assembly indexed...
1. A nonwoven web, formed of spunlaid fibers comprising a first polyolefin, a second polyolefin, and a softness enhancer additive; wherein the second polyolefin is a propylene copolymer and is a different polyolefin than the first polyolefin, wherein the nonwoven web is impressed with a first...
STEEL barsCONCRETE beamsFAILURE mode & effects analysisSHEARING forceEnsuring the shear capacity of concrete structures is crucial. The vertical prestressed steel bar (VPSB) strengthening method is effective for improving the shear behaviour of concrete structures. Four concrete beams are investigated to ...
