Practical Analysis for Partially Restrained Frame Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In conventional frame analysis, the behavior of beam-to-column connections is treated as either pinned or rigid joints. In recent years, extensive theoretical and experimental work has produced accurate connection models ...
Performance Evaluation of Reinforced Concrete Bridge Columns Wrapped with Fiber Reinforced Polymers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study investigates the performance of new bridge columns wrapped with fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) when exposed to aggressive environmental conditions. This has been accomplished through field monitoring and ...
Practical Advanced Analysis for Unbraced Steel Frame Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents practical advanced analysis methods for two-dimensional unbraced steel frame design. Three methods for practical design are developed and refined: (1) an explicit imperfection modeling method; (2) an ...
Practical Advanced Analysis for Braced Steel Frame Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents three practical advanced analysis procedures for a two-dimensional braced steel frame design. These procedures can be used to assess realistically both strength and behavior of a structural system and ...
Fracture Strength of Welded Flange-Bolted Web Connections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In 1994, California's steel building frames withstood the 6.8 magnitude Northridge earthquake without collapse or casualties. Severe damage, however, was sustained by the welded flange-bolted web connections: at the ...
