I recently presented in a technical session of the International Bridge Conference in Pittsburgh - a great venue for practitioners and researchers that work on practical applications for the bridge engineering field. The proceedings will be published over the summer,…
I recently presented a paper at the 1st International Conference on Concrete Sustainability in Tokyo, Japan. The next edition will be in Madrid, in 2016. The abstract of my paper is: A large number of existing reinforced concrete slab bridges…
For those ACI members out there, I recently discovered that my lecture in the session on "Recent Developments in Reinforced Concrete Slab Analysis, Design and Serviceability" is available online.If you're a student in structural engineering, you should consider becoming an…
At the IABSE spring conference in Rotterdam, I've presented a paper on slabs subjected to a combination of loads. The abstract is as follows: Previous experimental research at Delft University of Technology indicated an increased shear capacity of slabs under…
At the IABSE spring conference in Rotterdam, I've presented a paper on the shear assessment of solid slab bridges. The abstract is as follows: The capacity of reinforced concrete solid slab bridges in shear is assessed by comparing the design…
Last April, I gave a presentation at the fib Symposium in Tel Aviv. The abstract of the paper and presentation is the following: Existing solid slab bridges under a combination of wheel loads and distributed traffic loads sometimes do not…
At the 92nd Annual Meeting of the Transportation Research Board, I've presented in the session of "Topics in Concrete Bridges". You can find the slides of my presentation here: Assessment of the Shear Capacity of Existing Reinforced Concrete Solid Slab…
I'm not someone who naturally loves to go up on a stage and speak in public - and that's an understatement. One of my main challenges in 2012 was to deliver a talk for TEDx Delft Salon - and to…
On Monday October 8th, I gave a short PhD pitch at the kick-off meeting for 3TU.Bouw Center for the Built Environment, which combines the four academic Built Environment faculties of the Netherlands. My PhD pitch (5 minutes presentation) represented the…
