Sustainable structural design optimization - prestressed concrete beams by Ng, Kok Hang

“…The case study revealed that for an 18 m wide bridge, a 3-beam layout generates lesser overall EC than a 4-beam layout and a beam length (thus column spacing) of 20 to 26 m is likely to produce the lowest EC for the bridge system. …”

Shear strength of reinforced and prestressed concrete deep beams by Lu, Hai Yun.

“…The studies in this thesis mainly focus on the general behaviour, analysis and design in the shear strength of large reinforced and post-tensioned concrete deep beams. The influence of main steel ratio p, concrete strength fc', shear span-to-overall-height ratio a/h (or shear span-to-effective-depth ratio a/d), overall height h and prestress force on deep beams are investigated.…”

Active chilled beam auto-selection software optimization and modification by Phyu, Aye Pwint

“…The thermal load can be satisfied by varying the flow of cold water or hot water and passing conditioned air through the chilled beams to meet the latent and sensible loads. The project is centred on the development of AAT (Active air terminal) auto selection software for a customer, to provide a guided and intuitive means of selecting the best possible combination of chilled beams and active diffusers to satisfy their thermal load. …”
