The built environment is becoming increasingly complex, and we face ever growing expectations by society that our infrastructure and buildings must provide exceptional performance over a long service life. The 39th IABSE Symposium provides a platform to the world’s structural engineers to share their experiences with contemporary structures and their vision for the future. The conference theme “Engineering the Future” is highly relevant today when the solutions have to be engineered using innovative technologies and past experience in a way that is economical, robust and enhances the sustainability of the built environment. The Symposium enables the participants to actively discuss practical topics related to the structural engineering of buildings, bridges and other civil infrastructure. The Symposium was organized by the Canadian Group of IABSE in collaboration with the Structural Engineers Association of British Columbia. These proceedings contain over 450 papers presented at the Symposium, which were written by an impressive roster of keynote presenters, panellists, and industry stakeholders representing design, research, construction, and socio-economic and political aspects of structural engineering. In addition, several unique workshops, tours and social events provided the participants with an enriching and engaging experience. Located on Canada’s spectacular West Coast, the host city Vancouver is one of the most beautiful and vibrant cities in the world. Its prominent location combines nature with urban life, making it an exciting conference and travel location. The Vancouver region has seen remarkable growth in recent years, with an explosion of new residential and commercial construction in the walkable Downtown core while preserving the city’s varied past. Considerable rehabilitation and expansion to Vancouver’s landmark bridges, transit structures and other civil infrastructure has also occurred in recent years. This Symposium would not have been possible without the sustained effort and the hard work of many people. Obviously, the authors, the committee members, and the reviewers are essential to the success of the Symposium. In particular, we thank the dedication of the core group of the Scientific Committee for their efforts in handling of the papers and preparing an engaging technical program, and the members of the Local Organizing Committee for making the Symposium a memorable event. We hope that you enjoyed the Symposium and find the technical program and the proceedings interesting and stimulating.

Plastics voided slabs are capable of reducing the amount of concrete necessary to construct a building by30 percent or more. This reduction can be beneficial in terms of financial saving as well as building performance. Long span flat slab systems with internal void formers have been used in Europe for decade the main advantages is the possibility of long spans due to the significant reduction in self weight as well as the construction sequence Keyword : - of , chunks, framework, and concrete 1.

Their undersides follow a smooth wave-like profile in elevation to provide the greatest structural depth at the support where the bending moment is largest. The structural depth then tapers to only 600 millimetres at the cantilever tip at midspan, where the two girders meet and interlock The middle spans on the Inner Harbour Bridge in Copenhagen slide apart to allow large boats to pass through the harbour.

    © 2019 JETIR June 2019, Volume 6, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) SEISMIC ANALYSIS OF KINEMATIC BEARINGS USING VOIDED BIAXIAL SLAB Mirajj Ketan Thaker , Dilesh Solanki, Dhruval Suriya ,Venkatesh Rajput Student, Student , Student , Assistant Professor Civil engineering Department, Universal College of Engineering, Mumbai, India. Shreya Gaikwad, Student, St. Francis Institute of Technology, Mumbai , India. Abstract The basic intention of seismic protection systems is to decouple the building structure from the damaging components of the earthquake input motion, that is, to prevent the superstructure of the building from absorbing the earthquake energy. This paper reviews the experimental study and model simulation of kinematic bearings with use of voided biaxial slab system (uboot technology). Shaking table test was done. from moderate to severe vibrations and effects like gyro, acceleration, drift, maximum displacement was derived. The aim is to build such type of structure which provides maximum stability and minimum damage to building components during seismic action, also to make structure economical and environmentally sustainable in seismic zones Keywords- seismic waves, polypropylene, rubber Bearings, voided slab. 1. INTRODUCTION Earthquake is amongst the catastrophic natural calamities where an abrupt movement or tremor is initiated under earth’s causing major damage to mankind. Although a great deal of research has been carried out regarding seismic isolation, there is a lack of proper research on its behavior and implementing technique in low to medium seismic region. From past earthquakes, it is demonstrated that a significant number of structure are absolutely/somewhat harmed because of earthquake and now-a-days it has turned out to be important to decide seismic reactions over such structures.
