Abstract: The reinforcing steel bars embedded in the concrete of a reinforced concrete (RC) structure in a region with high airborne chloride concentrations may corrode. To avoid overestimating the seismic capacity assessment, it ...

Abstract: The use of masonry infills in reinforced concrete (RC)-framed structures implicates the strength of the frame and the seismic resistance of the building. The present study (1) experimentally investigated the behavior ...
