A Practical Design and Construction of Tension Rod Supported Glazing
In designing a glass skin-covered space, for the atrium, entrance hall or other core part of a building complex, the high openness and quality requirements of the space often lead to the...
A Quasicrystal for Denmark's Coast
The first true quasicrystal structure will have been built in the fall of 1993 at COAST (The Center for Art, Science, and Technology at the Danish Technical University). With 600 aluminum...
Developing Standardized Connection Analysis Techniques for Slim Hole Core Rod Designs
Non-Fuel Bearing Hardward Melting Technology
Battelle has developed a portable hardware melter concept that would allow spent fuel rod consolidation operations at commercial nuclear power plants to provide significantly more storage...
Numerically Predicting Horizontally Oriented Spent Fuel Rod Surface Temperatures
A comparison between numerical calculations with use of commercial thermal analysis software packages and experimental data simulating a horizontally oriented spent fuel rod array was...
Glass-Fiber Reinforcing Rod: Characterization and Application to Concrete Structures and Grouted Anchors
This paper presents the physical and mechanical characteristics of a new glass-fiber reinforcing rod which was developed to be used as a rebar for concrete structures or a tendon for grouted...

A New Aramid Rod for the Reinforcement of Prestressed Concrete Structures
Dissolution of Spent Fuel Under the Conditions of Wet Storage and Disposal
The release of cobalt and cesium from PWR spent fuel rods with three types of artificial defects made on their clads in demineralized water and also the dissolution of uranium from unirradiated...
Jet Grouting—Uses for Soil Improvement
The frequency of use of any engineering technique depends mainly on the technical feasibility and economics of the system. In geotechnical engineering, the more problems a construction...
Scour Measuring and Monitoring Equipment for Bridges
The National Cooperative Highway Research program (NCHRP), through the Transportation Research Board (TRB) of the National Academy of Sciences, is currently sponsoring a research effort...
In Situ Determination of Smith Soil Model Parameters for Wave Equation Analysis
A methodology for in situ determination of Smith soil model parameters for wave equation analysis is presented. The method uses a small-rod penetration test in conjunction with CAPWAPC...
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,...
Steel Girt Design
Procedures are presented for the design of light gage cold formed girts and hot rolled girts. The effects of continuity, sag rods, and wall sheeting are discussed. Design procedures are...
Dynamic Characterization of Posttensioned Rods in Stressed Timber Systems
A new approach is presented to monitor the levels of force in posttensioning rods in stressed timber systems. The dynamic response of the rod under an impact load is characterized and...
