Abstract: The flexural behavior of hybrid timber–steel encased beams comprising coniferous radiata pine (Pinus radiata) (MGP10) and Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) (F8) timber lamellae with bonded-in steel bars is studied. The ...

Abstract: This paper presents the formulation for a novel flexibility-based one-dimensional (1D) finite element that captures material and structural softening within a reinforced concrete framed structure. Separating the total ...

Abstract: This paper develops both a three-parameter power model and a Ramberg-Osgood model for quantifying the moment—rotation characteristics of a blind-bolted flush end-plate system that connects a composite beam to a concrete-filled ...
