Abstract: One typical application of textile-reinforced mortar (TRM) is as a confining material for concrete. The compressive behavior of TRM-confined concrete is often predicted by referring to the models of fiber-reinforced polymer ...

Abstract: The reasonable spatial allocation of shelters in key urban areas and the improvement of the evacuation efficiency are critical agendas in the field of earthquake mitigation and resilient cities. Based on the conventional ...

Abstract: Many types of connections between steel reinforced concrete (SRC) columns and reinforced concrete (RC) beams have been proposed. These connections are usually difficult to design and complex to construct. This study proposes ...

Abstract: This paper first proposes a high-strength (HS) steel-moment frame structure with replaceable damage-control fuses, which utilized the very large elastic deformation capacity of HS steel and damage-control functions of ...

Abstract: This paper proposed a new type of stiffened circular ultra-high performance concrete-filled double skin steel tubular (UHPCFDST) column, in which stiffeners were applied to connect both inner and outer steel tubes. It ...
