Abstract: The paper presents a technique for strengthening of reinforced concrete infilled frames with textile-reinforced mortar (TRM) jacketing. The key objective of the study is to examine different methods of masonry infill-concrete ...

Abstract: This paper presents a technique for retrofitting nonseismically reinforced concrete (RC) masonry-infilled frames with textile-reinforced mortar (TRM) jacketing. In the present study the application of TRM is examined on ...

Abstract: This paper proposes an analytical approach for modeling the behavior of textile-reinforced mortar (TRM)-strengthened masonry-infilled reinforced-concrete (RC) frames under seismic loading. The model falls into the discrete ...

Abstract: Tests were carried out on two continuous one-way slab specimens, representing, at a scale of 1:1.5, the floor slabs of a multistory building most affected by a postulated instant loss of a perimeter column owing to accidental ...

Abstract: The impact of the loss of an intermediate column on the most adversely affected subassembly of a multistory, multibay reinforced concrete (RC) frame was studied experimentally and analytically. Two subassemblies were ...
