The Expected Condition of Spent LWR Fuel on Delivery to a Repository
The condition of spent fuel on delivery to a repository is affected by its service in the reactor and by the postirradiation activities including wet and dry storage; fuel examination,...
Building Joint Movement
Moisture leakage in masonry claddings occurs not only through copings and facial separation cracks, but also through failed sealant joints in the veneer. The factors affecting joint movement...
Local Wind Pressures on Roofs
The paper reviews the results of the most recent research studies in the evaluation of wind pressure coefficients for the design of roof cladding elements. The effect of roof geometry...
Wind Effects on Loose-Laid Cladding Systems
Modern roofing systems for flat roofs frequently make use of rigid insulation boards, gravel and concrete pavers that are loose-laid on top of the waterproof membrane. The authors have...
