Performance Of Reinforced Concrete Beam With Embedded Galvanized Steel As Lightning Down Conductor Cable
Due to current problem with existing lightning protection systems such corrosion and stolen cable, a new system that can be installed within concrete structures has been introduced by the International of Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). However, detailed installation guidelines were not provided...

Concrete beams of 200 x 300 x 1200 mm sizes were used and several tests were conducted in order to investigate the performance of concrete beams.

From the frequency test, reduction of natural frequency before and after the lightning simulation can be assume as negligible. 2019-03 Thesis http://eprints.usm.my/48378/ http://eprints.usm.my/48378/1/MUSTAQQIM%20BIN%20ABDUL%20RAHIM%20PERFORMANCE%20OF%20REINFORCED%20CONCRETE%20BEAM%20WITH%20EMBEDDED%20GALVANIZED%20STEEL%20AS%20LIGHTNING%20DOWN%20CONDUC~1.pdf%20cut.pdf application/pdf en public phd doctoral Universiti Sains Malaysia Pusat Pengajian Perumahan, Bangunan & Perancangan (School of Housing, Building & Planning) |
