Carrying capacity of united structures on the example of CFST elements

Tadeusz Czarniawski

Abstract: In industrial building structures steel pipes filled up with concrete have a growing popularity. In comparing to conventional steel or reinforced concrete poles, united structures steel-concrete of type CFST (Concrete Filled Steel Tube) are characterized by both a greater compressive strength and a greater stiffness. Axial-symmetrical united structures steel-concrete can be applied in many branches of industry. These structures are often applied in bridge buildings, both as sustaining poles as well as, more and more often, as curves of routes, providing the transfer operation both of static loads as well as dynamic at economic scopes of the construction.

Short- and long-term compressive strength of mortars modified with hardening accelerating admixtures

Jan Pizoń, Beata Łaźniewska-Piekarczyk

Abstract: This paper presents results of compressive strength tests for Portland cement mortars and mortars with addition of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS). Mortars were modified with usage of four different hardening accelerating admixtures. Compressive stress tests were conducted after 12 hours up to 360 days of curing. Effectiveness of those agents is higher for mortars made of cement with addition of GGBFS up to 28th day. After this term some of those admixtures have profitable influence also. It is shown that not every hardening accelerating admixture cause decline of long-term compressive strength of mortars made of some types of cement. Mortars with addition of GGBFS obtains compressive strength after 7 days of curing close to its final strength. It is similarity to CEM I 52,5R mortars without modification by admixtures (with notice to scale of phenomenon).

Transformation directions of downtown areas on the example of the city of Częstochowa

Nina Sołkiewicz-Kos

Abstract: The issue of the development of urban areas includes spatial phenomena concerning downtown areas. To preserve them in good condition requires constant action. This includes the creation of socially acceptable spaces which would stimulate development processes of central areas of cities. Czestochowa is an example of a city looking for right relations between modernity and the future. This requires delicate and precise decisions related to the introduction of center-forming functions within the historic city center. As a result, it has a chance to adapt to modern functional requirements and changing needs of the society. This multidirectional search aims at improving the value of urban environment and is a reflection of the relation between cultural, commercial and service functions. Selected stages of downtown development include both historical period and contemporary one. They are an attempt to illustrate the transformational activities that stimulate the process of the urban environment development at a given time.
