Nonlinear analysis of steel scaffolds for shoring of concrete structures

Abstract Shoring systems are temporary structures that should resist external loads during the construction of concrete structures. Therefore, the shoring system should have sufficient strength and stiffness to ensure the safety of the concrete structure until it becomes self-supporting. Unfortunately, a large number of accidents occur during the construction of concrete structures due to the failure of the shoring system, showing the importance of improving the knowledge about these structures. This work aims to study the behavior of steel scaffolds used in the construction of high-clearance ...
