Probabilistic considerations and use of WIM data for assessing structural safety effects of permitting 74 ton heavy trucks on Norwegian bridges
ICASP14; Köhler, Jochen; Liljefors, Frida (2023)The Norwegian Public Roads Administration has been asked to provide scientific background on the effect of increasing the maximum allowed traffic load to 74 ton on the structural safety of existing road bridges. This is a ... -
Reliability level of the second generation of the Eurocodes -- status and potential
Sørensen, John; Hingorani, Ramon; ICASP14; Köhler, Jochen (2023)The EN Eurocodes are a collection of 10 European Standards, EN 1990 - EN 1999 , providing a common basis for the design of load bearing structures. The next generation of the Eurocodes, the second generation, will be ... -
Sustainability potential of risk-informed decisions in structural design
Köhler, Jochen; Hingorani, Ramon; ICASP14 (2023)Structural design codes feature safety concepts that are highly generalized to make them simple and applicable to a large variety of structures at the same time. This leads to structures that are sufficiently safe but where ... -
Volume effects in glued laminated timber beams
ICASP14; Köhler, Jochen; Palma, Pedro; Brandner, Reinhard; Fink, Gerhard (2023)This paper discusses several aspects related to volume effects on glued laminated timber (GLT) beams, with focus on the combined effects of height and length on the bending strength. Challenges related to the prediction ...
