Abstract: The paper proposes strut and tie models for the flexure, shear, and bond strength of corroded reinforced concrete (RC) beams. The deterioration of the material properties including bond and the cross section losses are ...

Abstract: The condition of substructures in high-speed railway (HSR) bridges is crucial to the safety of the railway operation. However, research on the condition evaluation of substructures in HSR bridges is very limited. In this ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the influence of corrosion on the postyielding performance of steel reinforcement. Artificial corrosion was induced to the steel reinforcement based on mechanical methods. Different corrosion ...
