Key words: cold-formed joints, experimental investigations, hollo-bolts, diaphragm connection, finite element models.

The cold joint defect is an initial issue arising from the discontinuous pouring process commonly encountered in large-volume concrete structures, particularly in tunnel lining. However, as

Drawing upon existing literature, including numerical simulations and experimental testing, this study presents a robust simplified numerical simulation modeling framework for

This paper considers the effect of semi-rigid joints and finite connection length on the design of cold-formed steel portal frames sized using a

Press-Joints Press joining is a relatively new technique for joining cold-formed steel sections. The joint is formed using the parent metal of the sections to be connected. The tools used to form a press-joint

In this work, the mechanisms mobilizing the shear resistance of interfaces, both under monotonic and cyclic actions, are described. Constitutive relationships based on previous research

Cold-joint interface behaviour analysis was performed by predicting the shear stress and slippage values using the proposed analytical method, by

Utilizing these parameters, we developed a detailed model to simulate the pouring process of lining structures. By intentionally interrupting the on-site pouring process and controlling

What is a Cold Joint in Concrete? Cold joints occur when a fresh concrete batch is poured against a partially hardened existing layer. As you know, concrete

The study utilizes a database of 217 cold joints, categorized by surface type (smooth or roughened), and employs a range of input parameters, including concrete strength, reinforcement

In view of the existing cold joint detection methods, which have low detection efficiency and difficulty in data analysis, a tunnel secondary lining cold

Moreover, examined specimens with cold joints to study the effect of delay time at 0,60,120,180 min that impacts cold joints on the strength and

Cold joints can reduce concrete strength by over 30%, depending on joint orientation and formation time. Horizontal cold joints maintain compressive strength, while diagonal and vertical joints exhibit

This study introduces a mechanics-based numerical model to characterize the behavior of cold joints in reinforced concrete members subjected to monotonic loading. The model

Interface strength and thickness are the main factors affecting the possibility of fatigue damage occurrence and the variability of fatigue life. The

The distance between the batching plant and the construction location is also an obstacle to cold joints. This study would test the compressive and flexural strength due to the effect of cold joint in concrete.

Cold joints that occur in concrete significantly affect the performance and durability, so that further analysis and research needs to be done on the strength of concrete due to the cold joint.

A cold solder joint is a defect caused by improper melting of solder to bond PCB electronic components. This defect can impact the functionality of a

13% for ∆W = 0.1 m. The presented model allows the user to verify and compare the time for cold joint formation for any wall-like structural geometry and provides a relative time to cold joint

The model provides a time estimate for cold joint formation as a result. It allows us to assess the drying severity for a given geometry of the structure, its interaction with the environment,

Cold joints in reinforced concrete (RC) beams can significantly impact shear behavior, influencing stress distribution and failure patterns. This study examines how delay times,

Therefore, when developing or evaluating precast and retrofitted structures, it is crucial to comprehend the shear force transfer capability of cold joints. This research explores the application

After validating the numerical models, two structural designs have been proposed to mitigate the negative effects of CJs in reinforced concrete structures. These designs are intended to improve

In this paper, the problem of the generation of cold joints is approached from two complementary perspectives.

Cold Shrink Cold Shrink Joints for Single & 3 Core Low Voltage Polymeric Cables Up To 3.3kV 3M Cold Shrink Cable Joints form part of the LC Series of low

The study aims to measure the reduction in compressive and flexural strength of concrete specimens containing cold joints, evaluate the effect of cold joint orientation (vertical, horizontal, or
