Wind analysis of four legged transmission towers with different bracing systems for angle section & tube section
Abstract: Due to the increasing demand of electrical energy, a significant importance should be given to the analysis & design of transmission line towers. Since the transmission towers are the tall structures, they are mainly affected by wind forces. Therefore before the design & construction of these structures, they must be analysed for wind forces. This research paper presents a study on wind analysis of four legged towers with different bracing …

Applicability of a Balcony Function for Bridge Deck Analysis under HA and HB Loading
Abstract: A bridge is one of the major infrastructures in the society used to connect roads separated by rivers or any other obstructions. This work is all about the applicability of a balcony function for bridge deck analysis under HA loading and HB loading. The HA loading comprises of uniformly distributed load and knife edge load while HB comprises of abnormal load which is as a result of abnormal vehicles. Different …

Analysis of Steel Beam Column Joint by Using Cantilever Weight by using ANSYS
Abstract: The steel beam column joint is ideally pinned, semi rigid or fully rigid. As per previous study the semi rigid connections are subjected to moment rotation relationship joint of structure and the behavior of beam column joints in steel frames can be represented by its cantilever weight behavior which is primarily shown by the moment rotation relationship. During the past decade, extensive research has been conducted on the analysis and …

Strength and Deformation of Rectangular Simply Supported GPC Slab
Abstract: Geo polymer concrete is one of the emerging construction material as a substitute for conventional cement concrete as it eliminate the usage of OPC. It is said that production of 1 tonne of cement emits approximately 1 tonne of carbon dioxide into atmosphere. In order to minimize the liberation of carbon dioxide to air, alternative materials have to be used to replace the cement. Geopolymer concrete in one such material …

Seismic Analysis of Prestressed Concrete Bridge Subjected To Ground Motion Using Time History Method
Abstract: The use of continuous concrete box girder bridges has increased recently. In construction of this type bridges having constant or variable section height, the cantilever method can be applied. Box girder section forms consist of single or more box girder based on bridge wide. The cantilever method is considered as the natural and logical solution in construction of box girder bridges. There are two basic alternatives in the cantilever method: …
