In my November 2024 column, I began discussing the building block approach for crashworthiness testing of composite structures. This approach features a multistep process for designing composite ...
SEATTLE — University of Washington researchers are in San Diego conducting earthquake tests with the tallest building ever on a shake table. This project pushes for widespread use of laminated wood in ...
Non-destructive testing (NDT) investigates the material integrity of everything from machinery to industrial plant infrastructure to buildings but with the distinction of leaving no damage in doing so ...
Unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings are everywhere. Residences, stores, restaurants, schools, fire departments and other critical infrastructure are commonly housed in URM buildings. These buildings ...
In a general sense, the term “curtain wall” refers to an exterior wall that does not support loads other than its own weight. Curtain walls are therefore nonstructural, and serve solely to protect the ...
