Shows the building of an office and a warehouse in steel. The elements are prefabricated in order to accelerate the construction time. Looks specifically at various technical details, giving an idea of the...
Shows examples of beam and plate buckling. Discusses and demonstrates the reduction of stiffness due to buckling, the effective width concept, the effect of imperfections, tension field theory, buckling due...
Shows the preparation and execution of fire tests in car parks. Test cars, filled with several types of fuel, are set on fire and the consequences followed step-by-step. Discusses the behaviour of the steel...
Shows fire tests in an American car park, designed to show the effects of fire on exposed steel. With the aid of thermocouples on the girders, the temperature is measured and the resulting elongation is shown.
Discusses the mechanical properties of a cross-section. In laboratory tests the differences between stocky and slender columns, between their plastic and elastic behaviour, as well as the effect of...
Follows the steel fabrication process: transport, the stockyard, shot and grit blasting, painting, numerical control operations, punching, shearing by guillotine, flame cutting, milling, forming by pressing,...
Shows the testing of the fire resistance of a composite building: the erection of the building, the installation of a complex set of thermocouples, setting fire to the building, assessment of the damage.
Highlights important aspects of bolted connections. Demonstrates bolted connections in tension and shear, including the effect of eccentricity, prying force, displacements and the connection stiffness.
Considers the interaction of web buckling, flange stiffness and vertical stiffeners. The explanation of each problem is followed by laboratory tests giving experimental support.
The new Willems bridge is a cable stayed bridge across the River Meuse in Rotterdam. It is, in fact, a bascule bridge which cannot be opened. Shows all phases in the building from the foundations to the...
