The behavior of simply supported reinforced concrete slabs in fire conditions and the influence ofcertain parameters on their fire resistance is analysed in this paper. The influence of the slab span,concrete cover thickness and the type of reinforcement scheme are analysed. All slabs are exposedto standard fire ISO 834. The analyses are conducted ...

Progress and demands of all types of constructions imposed the need for the development of modernstructures that are lightweight, but at the same time have high damping capacity and stiffness. Theconsequences of these requirements are increased dynamic problems related to vibrations anddissipative processes in structure connection joints. Structura...

Experiences from previous earthquakes have shown that level of structural damages depends onground features where the structure is placed. Also, it is noted that reinforced concrete framestructures collapse due to the appearance of “weak floor”, especially when are founded on groundswith lower characteristics. In this paper, the seismic...

This research was conducted in order to evaluate the influence of different curing conditions on rheological and mechanical properties of high volume fly ash concrete (HVFAC) in comparison with the ordinary Portland cement concrete (OPC). Four types of concrete were made: two HVFAC and two OPC designed to have the same consistency and 28-day compre...

Problems involving contact are of great importance in industry related to mechanical and civilengineering, but also in biomechanics and other applications. The contact interaction betweensurfaces and different bodies like in a bolted splice connection joint or area in which a tire interactswith the soil is not known a priori, leading to a nonlinear...

This paper offers preliminary insights into the phenomenality of Orientalizing styles of architecturein Bosnia-Herzegovina in the period of Austro-Hungarian rule. It examines in some detail threebuildings in Banja Luka and Gradiška, with brief detours to Brčko, Dubica, and Šamac, focusing onthe problem of decision-making in the planni...
