RISExperimental Tests and Analytical Model of Double-Action Steel Angles as External Energy-Dissipating Devices
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractSteel angles are often used as external energy-dissipating devices at column bases
or beam-to-column connections. Compared with the tension-only steel angle (TSA), the
double-action steel angle (DSA) is currently ...
Experimental Investigation and Level Classification on the Postearthquake Vertical Load-Carrying Capacity of RC Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract This study aims to reveal the failure mechanism and performance law of the vertical
mechanical performance of earthquake-induced cumulative damaged RC columns and quantify
the vertical load-carrying capacity (VLCC) ...
Dynamic Multiaxial Strength Criterion for Concrete Based on Strain Rate–Dependent Strength Parameters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The majority of existing studies on the strain rate effect of concrete have concentrated on the dynamic uniaxial strength or a narrow range of strain rates. However, concrete material always works under a multiaxial stress ...
Calculating Vortex-Induced Vibration of Bridge Decks at Different Mass-Damping Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An improved method for calculating the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of bridges is proposed in this article. In this method, the nonlinear characteristics of the additional aeroelastic effects during VIV versus structural ...
Effect of Field Aging on Rheological and Chemical Properties of Asphalt Binder in a Cold and Arid Region
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractIndoor accelerated aging simulations cannot fully replicate the field aging conditions
of asphalt binders. To study the aging behaviors of asphalt binders in field environments,
samples with three film thicknesses ...
Punching Shear Behavior of Bent-Shaped Web-Embedded Perfobond Strip Connectors in Composite Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractWeb-embedded shear connectors (WESCs) in steel-concrete composite beams (SCCBs) are
gaining attention due to their potential to reduce structural weight, eliminate welding
requirements, and decrease residual welding ...
Evaluation of Modal Contributions to Transverse Seismic Responses of Diamond-Shaped Pylon: Experimental and Numerical Analyses
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract The adoption of diamond-shaped pylons has gained widespread popularity in engineering
applications, such as the Husutong Yangtze River Bridge and Tatara Bridge, owing to
their cost-effectiveness, appealing aesthetics, ...
Hierarchical Simulations and Seismic Performance Evaluation of Tall Buildings Equipped with Negative Stiffness Damped Outrigger with Damping Amplification
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractTo address the damping limitations of conventional damped outrigger (CDO) systems
in tall buildings and reduce the damping force demand of viscous damper installed
at the outrigger end, a novel negative stiffness ...
Minimum Socket Depth for Socket Joints in Accelerated Bridge Construction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract Socket connection is a commonly used connection method in accelerated bridge construction
(ABC). The socket depth directly affects the connection reliability, force transmission
mechanism, and foundation expenditure, ...
Effect of Heat, Oxygen, and UV Light Coupled Aging on Chemical Properties of Bitumen
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractThe properties of bitumen can deteriorate under environmental aging. In this study,
heat-, oxygen-, and ultraviolet (UV) light–induced aging of bitumen was carried out
using an environmental coupled aging simulator. ...
