Abstract: Design and detailing requirements for composite concrete beams are specified in clause 17.5 of building code 318 of the American Concrete Institute. These requirements rely on monolithic action of the entire cross section ...

Abstract: Concrete columns encased in fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes offer an attractive solution to enhance behavior of concrete in terms of strength as well as ductility. Analytical models for development of stress-strain ...

Abstract: In this paper, the cyclic stress amplitude controlled high-cycle fatigue properties and final fracture behavior of commercially pure titanium (Grade 2) are presented and discussed. The material characterization was developed ...
