It can be observed from the test results that both the ultimate loads sustained by the short leg connected angles and the ductility of all the angle specimens were greater when the balanced weld arrangement was used in the connections than when the specimens were connected using the unbalanced welded arrangement.
In general, all eccentrically loaded columns sustained ultimate loads lower than that sustained by the concentrically loaded column.
For instance, columns D-1-3, D-1-5, anD-3-5-5 sustained uloadste lofds of 480, 300, and 379 kN, respectively, while columns S-1-3, S-1-5 and S-3-5 sustained uloadste lofds of 395, 245, and 220 kN, respectively.
For a reduced Hpk/Eacc, a higher ultimate Eacc is sustained when Hpk finally strikes Hcrit,RF.
Needless to say that this increased importance of space as the ultimate resource for sustaining life and economic activity of mankind has major implications for spatial planning.
Based on the exploration of the teacher enactment of the mobilized 5E curriculum, implications are drawn concerning the implementation of innovative curricula implementation and the supports for teacher professional development of such innovation with the ultimate purpose of sustaining and scaling.
The repaired walls were capable of restoring the yield and ultimate lateral load capacities, but sustained lower drift capacities.
The experiments show that all the riveted lap joints sustained the estimated ultimate load and failed only after reaching or exceeding the joint failure load.
In this study, rapid prototype (RP) biomodels of human vertebral trabecular bone were mechanically tested under uni-axial compression loading and also under wedge action loading (combination of compression and flexure loading) to investigate the mode of failure and the ultimate loads that could be sustained under these different loading conditions.
He was a man who had lived through a lot of hardships, particularly with his wife's sustained illness and ultimate death.
