Evaluation of Softened Truss Model for Strength Prediction of Reinforced Concrete Squat Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper evaluates the softened truss model and the softened strut-and-tie model for predicting shear strength of reinforced concrete squat walls. The prediction accuracy of analytical solutions is examined using the ...
Theory of Interface Shear Capacity of Reinforced Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A softened strut-and-tie model for determining interface shear capacity is proposed in this paper. Contrary to the shear-friction concept, the proposed theory predicts that ultimate failure is caused by the crushing of ...
Discussion of “Design of Sediment Traps with Open Check Dams. I: Hydraulic and Deposition Processes” by Guillaume Piton and Alain Recking
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Experimental Study on Virtual Value Management Workshop in Hong Kong
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Stakeholders engaged in value management (VM) practices often encounter the problem that the participants are too dispersed geographically from the workshop venue. Therefore, the introduction of a virtual collaboration ...
Analytical Model for Predicting Shear Strengthof Squat Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A softened strut-and-tie model for determining the shear strength of squat walls is proposed in this paper. The proposed model originates from the strut-and-tie concept and satisfies equilibrium, compatibility, and ...
Evaluation of Through-Thickness Residual Stresses by Neutron Diffraction and Finite-Element Method in Thick Weld Plates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Through-thickness distributions of the welding residual stresses were studied in the range of 50–100 mm thick plates by using finite-element modeling (FEM) and neutron diffraction measurements. In order to simulate the ...
Experimental and Numerical Study on the Reduction of Residual Stress in the Fillet Weld by Overlay Welding and Cutting Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fillet weld joint is widely used in engineering structures, but a lot of failures have been generated in the fillet joint affected greatly by weld residual stress, and it is very important to decrease the residual stress. ...

Evaluation Model for Influences of Driving Forces for Electronic Procurement Systems Application in Ghanaian Construction Projects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Recent recognition for increased digitization of construction processes presents an important need to accelerate electronic procurement systems (EPS) application on projects. The EPS uptake rate in construction is relatively ...
