This work presents a prefabrication and on site feasibility study of a modular wall panels system developed to perform a wood prototype-building closing system. The geometric performance was chosen to be accomplished in ...

This work aim to present the types and constructive details of walls of connections between walls in vertical silos using precast concrete elements. A discussion about the advantages using this type of silo are made and ...

The stick-wall silo is a kind of low cost above surface silo, purposed to small farmers. The walls are built of stakes and sticks tighted with thin wire or sisal fiber. The inner surface is revested by plastic canvas which ...

An effective way to help the animal maintain its body heat in a tropical climate is to proportionate some control over the thermal radiation. The use of natural shading as a manner to reduce the thermal radiant charger, ...

The present paper has as major objetive the determination of physical properties related to the design, and actions on silos. The properties analysed were: density (Ø); static angle of internal friction (Øi); e effective ...

The aim of this work is the study of model test of connections in timber structures withe split ring connections. With the panpose a review of international codes were made and with the study, preliminary model in compression ...

The present paper has as major objetive the determination of physical properties related to the design, and actions on silos. The properties analysed were: density (ø); static angle of internal friction (øi); e effective ...

The aim of this work is to present the stressed-laminated timber deck bridge constructive system as technical and economic alternative for secundary roads.

The aim of this work is the theorical and experimental study relating to the transverse distribution of wheel loads in wooden bridges with several stringers. A structural system that presents an efficient transverse ...

The objetive of this work was to evaluate the technical viability of using overlaid stalls for raising frogs keeping the characteristics proclaimed for amphifarm, system characteristies, monitoring the internal and external ...
