Abstract: In order to study the flexural behavior of composite beams with different concrete flange construction, experiments of four steel-concrete composite beams under bisymmetric mid-span loading were conducted, and mechanical ...

Abstract: Elastic buckling and second-order analyses are conducted using the matrix structural analysis approach for the in-plane and out-of-plane stability and adequate bracing design of a new type of Ferris wheel support system ...

Abstract: The conventional restraining ratio approach is not suitable for a straightforward design of the pre-tensioned cable-stayed buckling-restrained brace (PCS-BRB) because of its complicated buckling-restrained system. This ...

Abstract: The steel–concrete–steel (SCS) sandwich composite structures with orthogonal longitudinal and transverse (bidirectional) steel webs exhibit superiorities in strength, ductility, impact resistance, blast resistance, and ...

Abstract: This study presents a modified macromodel for calculating the anchorage slip of rebar under monotonic loading and its application to the fiber beam–column element model. The proposed macromodel reflects bond stress ...
