Abstract: A hysteretic model is proposed for shear response of reinforced concrete members subjected to shear force and bending moment reversals. The model consists of a primary shear force‐shear displacement curve and unloading and ...

Abstract: Large‐scale reinforced concrete columns were tested to investigate hysteretic behavior of anchorage slip in reinforced concrete structures. The columns were subjected to constant axial compression and unidirectional and ...

Abstract: The behavior of high strength concrete tied columns was investigated. A total of 11 columns were tested under monotonic loading having two different eccentricities. The main variables investigated were: (1) the mechanical ...

Abstract: Buildings with masonry infill walls (MIWs) in reinforced concrete (RC) frames are commonly used all around the world. It is well known that infill walls may affect the strength, stiffness, and displacement ductility of the ...

Abstract: In the last decade, a new strengthening methodology has been developed for reinforced concrete (RC) frames with hollow clay tile (HCT) infill walls by means of diagonally applied carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP) ...

Abstract: Pseudodynamic testing was employed to observe the seismic performance of two retrofit methods on two-story, three-bay frame structures. The test frames had hollow clay tile (HCT) infill in the central bay and incorporated ...
