RISSeismic Response of Flexibly Supported Coupled Shear Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Results from seismic analyses performed on 20-story ductile coupled-shear-wall models designed for Montreal, Canada, are presented. A two-dimensional model was used to idealize the structure including the supporting ground. ...
Shear Strengthening of RC Beams by Externally Bonded Side CFRP Strips
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents results of an experimental investigation on the response of reinforced concrete beams strengthened in shear using externally applied epoxy-bonded unidirectional carbon-fiber plastic side strips. Three ...
Classification Methodology for Coupled Shear Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents guidelines for classification of ductile coupled shear walls (CSWs). It includes two parts: the evaluation of the degree of coupling (DC) between the walls and the coupling beams, and the classification ...
Embedded Through-Section FRP Rod Method for Shear Strengthening of RC Beams: Performance and Comparison with Existing Techniques
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Embedded through-section (ETS) technique is a recently developed method to increase the shear capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) rods. The ETS method presents many advantages over ...
Bond Behavior of the ETS FRP Bar Shear-Strengthening Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The embedded through-section (ETS) technique was recently developed to avoid the debonding failure that occurs with other fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthening techniques, such as the externally bonded (EB) and ...
