Shape Effects on the Behavior of Hybrid FRP–Strengthened Rectangular RC Columns under Axial Compression
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Confinement with external bonding (EB) of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites is effective for improving the performance of reinforced concrete (RC) columns under axial compression. However, EB confinement is less ...
Experimental and Analytical Studies on Fracture Behavior of Fiber-Reinforced Structural Lightweight Aggregate Concrete
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study presents the fracture behavior of synthetic fiber-reinforced structural lightweight aggregate concrete (SynFR-SLWAC) by experimental and analytical studies. Experimental studies include testing of 15 specimens ...
Interface Shear Behavior of Ultrahigh-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Using Digital Image Correlation Technique
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Ensuring good interface shear resistance is essential in structural applications. Hence, understanding the interface shear behavior of ultrahigh-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) is essential. The interface ...
Role of Fiber Addition in GFRP-Reinforced Slender RC Columns under Eccentric Compression: An Experimental and Analytical Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Steel reinforcement is widely used in reinforced concrete (RC) constructions. However, the durability of the steel RC elements is often compromised due to corrosion under adverse environmental conditions. Glass fiber‒reinforced ...
Improved Softened Membrane Model for Reinforced Concrete Circular Bridge Columns under Torsional Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Improved Fixed Strut-Angle Model for Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Panel Elements under Monotonic Shear Loads
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Reinforced concrete (RC) structures are subjected to combinations of axial, shear, flexure, and torsional loading during an earthquake event. Comprehensive understanding of the behavior of shear panels is essential to ...
Behavior of Short Reinforced Concrete Column Elements with Buckling-Resistant Antispring-Clad Reinforcing Bars (BRASR) under Axial Compression
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, the buckling-resistant antispring-clad reinforcing bar (BRASR) for improving the performance of the longitudinal reinforcing bars embedded in concrete columns is presented. BRASR is formed using a set of ...
Optimization-Based Improved Softened-Membrane Model for Rectangular RC Members under Combined Shear and Torsion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: RC elements are often subjected to combined actions including torsion under seismic events. Understanding the behavior of RC members under combined actions including torsion is essential for safe design. Behavioral predictions ...
