Structural fire performance of bolted glulam beam-to-column concealed connections
(2018)Recent increased interest in the application of engineered-wood products, such as glued-laminated (glulam) timber and cross-laminated timber (CLT), in the Canadian building construction market has prompted amendments to ... -
Towards identification of progressive damage in structures under non-stationary excitation
(2018)Monitoring and retrofitting of large-scale infrastructure is of paramount importance specifically when they are subjected to natural hazards like strong wind, severe earthquakes or man-made excitation. Once the rich ... -
Towards system identification using single channel measurement in wireless sensing network
(2018)In the last few years, structural health monitoring has gained signifcant popularity to perform real-time condition assessment of civil structures. With the aid of mobile sensing network, movable wireless sensors have ... -
Ultimate tensile deformation and strength capacity of shear tab connections
(2019)Single plate or shear tab is a common simple connection to connect steel beams to columns. The connection is traditionally designed for the shear load transferred from the supported beam only, while it has long been ... -
Unpaved roads’ surface evaluation using unmanned aerial vehicle and deep learning segmentation
(2021)Unpaved roads have a significant role in Canada's transportation and service activities, accounting for close to 60% of Canada's total public road networks. Furthermore, they connect agricultural, mining, recreational ... -
Wind-induced pounding of tall buildings
(2022)Pounding of adjacent structures under lateral loads (e.g., earthquake and wind) due to proximity has been a major cause of building damage in the past. The effects of pounding can be mitigated by providing a suitable gap ...
