RISIn-Plane Shear Performance of Masonry Walls after Strengthening by Two Different FRPs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This experimental study was aimed to investigate the in-plane shear performance of externally strengthened masonry walls using two types of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets, namely, carbon FRP (CFRP) and polyethylene ...
Mesoscale Modeling of Chloride Penetration in Unsaturated Concrete Damaged by Freeze-Thaw Cycling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: For concrete structures exposed to frost attack, cracks, or microcracks induced by freeze-thaw cycling can format interconnecting flow paths and allow more water or chloride ions to penetrate into the bulk concrete. It ...
Experimental Investigation and Numerical Modeling of Peak Shear Stress of Brick Masonry Mortar Joint under Compression
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a study on the shear load-displacement behavior of horizontal joints in unreinforced brick masonry subjected to constant compression. In general, under static shear loading masonry joints show a peak ...

Experimental Investigation of Concrete Beams Strengthened with Embedded Through-Section Steel and FRP Bars
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents an experimental investigation on reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened in shear with embedded through-section (ETS) steel and fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) bars anchored with and without a ...
Numerical Simulation of Corrosion-Induced Cracking of Concrete Considering Rust Penetration into Cracks
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Evaluation of the concrete cracking induced by rebar corrosion is necessary for accurately clarifying the durability and predicting the service life of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. The fact that rust penetration ...
Time-Varying Modeling of Microbial-Induced Calcite Precipitation in Cracked Concrete and Its Inhibitory Effect on Chloride Diffusion
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Microbial-induced calcite precipitation (MICP) techniques are promising solutions for repairing cracks in reinforced concrete (RC) structures when exposed to a harsh chloride environment. By means of the lattice network ...
Prediction of Punching Shear Strength of Two-Way Slabs Strengthened Externally with FRP Sheets
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Strengthening two-way slabs by using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) is experimentally and analytically evaluated. Results show that the punching capacity of two-way slabs can increase to up to 40% greater than that of a ...
Stress-Strain Relationship of Frost-Damaged Concrete Subjected to Fatigue Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study attempted to develop a model for the stress-strain relationship in compression of frost-damaged concrete subjected to fatigue loading. Concrete specimens were prepared and exposed to freeze-thaw cycles followed ...
