Fire performance of a novel concealed mass timber moment-resisting connection utilizing mechanically-fastened steel rods
(2020)
A major hindrance to more application of engineered-wood products in the Canadian building
construction market is the lack of technical documentations and guidelines for the design of timber
beam-to-column connections, ...
Performance-based fragility and resilience assessment of coastal bridges subjected to extreme wave loads
(2022)
Bridges are vulnerable to severe damage due to extreme wave-induced loads from natural
disasters, including storm surges, tsunamis, and hurricanes. The frequency of these hazards has
been increasing recently as a direct ...
Concrete structure damage classification and detection using convolutional neural network
(2022)
A resilient infrastructure system remains a top priority for Canada as it is hinged to strong
economies. Corrosion, ageing, aggressive environments, material defects, and unforeseen
mechanical loads can compromise the ...
Fracture behavior of fiber-reinforced cemented paste backfill under curing pressure
(2022)
Due to the rapid strength acquisition rate, relatively high solid content, and sustainable reuse of
waste tailings, cement paste backfill (CPB) technology has gradually become a standard practice
in underground mining ...
Geomechanical behaviour of fibre-reinforced cemented paste backfill under cyclic loading conditions
(2022)
Cemented paste backfill (CPB) is considering a promising mine backfilling technology with
several technical, environmental, and economic benefits for the underground mining operation.
After placed into underground voids ...
Effect of sulfate content on the evolutive fracture behavior and properties of fiber-reinforced cemented paste backfill
(2022)
Backfilling technology is utilized globally to improve ore recovery, reduce mine-generated waste,
and provide stability to underground voids. Cemented paste backfill (CPB), a mixture of mine
tailings, cement binder, and ...
Experimental fire testing of damaged glulam beam connections retrofitted using self-tapping screws
(2022)
During the lifespan of timber buildings, structural members may exhibit different defects and/or
failures. This may include splits that develop due to shrinkage because of changes in the moisture
content of wood and/or ...
