Fatigue Assessment of Steel Frames under Aerodynamic Loads
In Application to Steel Hollow Section Portal Frames Supporting Traffic Signs
Although modern technologies such as smartphones with GPS functionality make navigation substantially easier, automobilists still rely on traffic signs to inform them which exit to take or which lane to follow. These traffic signs on highways are of substantial size rendering the

Component Characterization of T-plug Bending Around Weak Axis
Experiment design and numerical study of a new type plug-and-play joint
Explicit rules for safety verification of open cold-formed lightweight beam-to-tubular column joints are missing in the current EC3-1-8. By developing economical detailing, with design guidance based on Eurocodes, the market share for new buildings, renovation and for additional
