Abstract: Occurrence of negative shear lag in framed‐tube buildings under lateral loading is reported in the literature, but explanation of its origin and comprehensive studies of it are lacking. The present paper separates column ...

Abstract: A recently developed accurate procedure termed as the consistent procedure (CP) for evaluation of creep and shrinkage behavior in reinforced concrete (RC) frames is elaborate and requires large computational effort. An ...

Abstract: A hybrid analytical-numerical procedure has been presented to take into account the effect of concrete cracking and time-dependent effects of creep and shrinkage in composite beams of the composite frames subjected to ...

Abstract: This paper describes a consistent procedure for determining creep and shrinkage effects in RC building frames. The procedure takes into account the sequential nature of application of dead load and the simultaneous nature ...

Abstract: The most widely used procedure available in literature for determining creep and shrinkage effects in RC building frames, designated herein as approximate procedure (AP), has been recommended for buildings having flexible ...

Abstract: This paper describes a simplified procedure for evaluation of creep and shrinkage effects in reinforced concrete frames having low shear beam stiffness. In this procedure the inelastic axial forces, which get generated ...

Abstract: The codes of practice do not provide a methodology for estimation of deflection in two-way reinforced concrete (RC) slabs. Hence, a methodology has been proposed for immediate estimation of central deflections in two-way ...
