USE OF BIOPOLYMERS FOR SUSTAINABLE STABILIZATION OF QUALITY WINES (STABIWINE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

Wine market is very competitive. EU producers need to reduce production costs and increase their sustainability standard while improving the quality of their wine. Wine stability is one of the most important quality parameters. To avoid formation of cloudiness or precipitates in bottled wines, producers preventively treat it by mean of physical methods or additives. The present practices for tarta ...

IMPROVED FASTENING SYSTEMS OF CLADDING WALL PANELS OF PRECAST BUILDINGS IN SEISMIC ZONES (SAFECLADDING)

Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jul 31, 2015,

The current design practice of precast buildings is based on a frame model where the peripheral cladding panels enter only as masses without anystiffness. The panels are then connected to the structure with fastenings dimensioned with a local calculation on the base of their mass for anchorage forces orthogonal to the plane of the panels. This design approach does not work, as it was recently dram ...

PERFOMANCE OF INNOVATIVE MECHANICAL CONNECTIONS IN PRECAST BUILDINGS STRUCTURES UNDER SEISMIC CONDITIONS (SAFECAST)

Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Feb 29, 2012,

"The seismic behaviour of connections in precast construction systems has been largely recognized as a crucial matter to be addressed both by the industry sector and by the related research community. In spite of this situation, the complexity of the problem and the variety of inherent issues to be harmonizedly dealt with in proposing design procedures for connections and precast structures as a w ...
