Fabricación De Morteros Reforzados Para Recubrimiento Con Fibras Extraídas Del Pseudotallo De La Planta De Plátano (Musa Paradisiaca) Mezclados Con Cenizas De Procesos Agroindustriales, Laura Natalia Galeano Sarmiento
Fabricación De Morteros Reforzados Para Recubrimiento Con Fibras Extraídas Del Pseudotallo De La Planta De Plátano (Musa Paradisiaca) Mezclados Con Cenizas De Procesos Agroindustriales, Laura Natalia Galeano Sarmiento
Ingeniería Civil
Debido a la alta demanda de materiales en la industria de la construcción, en este proyecto de investigación se planteó el uso de fibras vegetales como alternativa de materia prima para el reforzamiento de morteros. En este caso, se evaluó la viabilidad de añadir fibras extraídas del pseudotallo de la planta de plátano Musa Paradisiaca, y cenizas volantes. Se describieron diferentes aplicaciones de otros proyectos similares para el uso de reforzamientos con fibras vegetales en la construcción, además de referir el proceso de cultivo, extracción de la fibra y tratamiento.
Se fabricaron morteros fibroreforzados a los cuales se les realizaron …
Seismic Loading Effects Within Orthogonally Connected Steel Lateral Force Resisting Systems, Alhussin Faraj Aliwan
Seismic Loading Effects Within Orthogonally Connected Steel Lateral Force Resisting Systems, Alhussin Faraj Aliwan
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Steel buildings located within seismically active regions require special design considerations to ensure public safety and prevent collapse during an extreme seismic event. Two commonly used steel systems are special moment frames (SMFs) and buckling-restrained braced frames (BRBFs). When two seismic systems share a common column in an orthogonal configuration (such as at a building corner), design specifications currently consider a 100+30 rule wherein the shared column is designed for 100% fuse demand in one direction, plus 30% fuse demand from the other direction. While this rule has been shown to be reasonable for elastic building response, a few studies …

On The Seismic Performance Of Skewed Special Moment Frame Reduced Beam Section Connections, Damaso Daniel Dominguez
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Special Moment Frames (SMFs) are frequently used in high seismic areas for architecturally constrained designs, as they provide lateral system stiffness without the use of braces which often obstruct views and architectural features. Reduced beam section (RBS) connections are popular SMF connection details developed following the Northridge earthquake to limit brittle fractures within connection welds. Current American Institute of Steel Construction (ASIC) provisions (i.e. AISC 341-16) provide prequalified SMF RBS connection details (including welding requirements); however, all prequalified details only consider orthogonal connections between the beam and column. This dissertation investigates the effect of adding skew within SMF RBS connections …

The Delaware Basin of West Texas and southeastern New Mexico is the major western subdivision of the Permian Basin and a northern extension of the Chihuahuan Desert. The major evaporite unit within the Delaware Basin is the Castile Formation, which consists of gypsum/anhydrite and is highly susceptible to dissolution and karsting. Manifestations of karst within the Castile outcrop are abundant and include sinkholes, subsidence features and caves, both epigene and hypogene in origin.
Land reconnaissance surveys conducted during the summer of 2015 documented abundant karst landforms in close proximity to a major thoroughfare, RM 652, in Culberson County, Texas. 2D …
