He graduates at Civil Engineering from University of São Paulo (1972), Master's at Structural Engineering from University of São Paulo (1976) and Ph.D. at Structural Engineering from University of São Paulo (1984). Currently he is professor senior at the Universityof Sâo Paulo at São Carlos. He has experience in Civil Engineering, focusing on Concrete Structures, acting on the following subjects: precast concrete, connections, structural tests, high and ultra-high performance concrete applications, (HPC and UHPC) and thin concrete elements. Author of the book "Precast concrete: fundamentals and applications" and the book "Concrete bridges with emphasis on the application of precast elements". (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The large number of shear strength models developed mostly deal with the analysis of beams or punching capacity of slabs. However, to loads distributed in small areas close to the support, which is often the case in slab bridge decks, there is a higher concentration of support reactions in the region closest to the loaded area. For this reason, an effective width is generally adopted in t…
The strategic purpose of this thematic project is to concentrate, to increase, to empower and to consolidate a research group essentially dedicated to establish scientific support and technological innovation on thematic field of precast concrete and composite structures, aiming to contribute for civil construction modernization. More specifically, on intends to develop researches on the …

Most of the shear strength models in the literature deal with the analysis of beams and the resistance to concentric punching of slabs. However, in the case of loads distributed in small areas and close to the support, a frequent situation in road bridge decks, an intermediate mode of rupture between beam shear and slab punching can occur. In this aspect, several studies were carried out …
The shear force strength has attracted, over the last decades, great discussions about the understanding of the involved mechanisms and their quantification. A large number of mechanical models developed mostly deal with the shear strength of beams or the concentric punching of slabs. However, in the case of loads distributed in small areas close to the support, a usual situation in bridg…
