Experimental and Numerical Study on Grouting Reinforcement of a Broken Rock Mass
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Grouting technology can be selected to strengthen broken rock mass in order to improve its antiseepage and bearing capacity. Based on the working principle of infiltration grouting and grouting pipe technology, experimental ... -
Experimental and Numerical Study of Seismic Response in CFRP-Strengthened and Damaged Rectangular Hollow Bridge Piers
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)This study aims to investigate the seismic performance and response of moderately damaged, rectangular hollow bridge pier specimens strengthened with carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP). For this purpose, two 1:8 ... -
Experimental and Numerical Study of Concrete Columns Reinforced with BFRP and Steel Bars under Eccentric Loading
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)There is a limited understanding of the behavior of hybrid reinforced concrete (hybrid-RC) columns, incorporating both fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) and steel bars, when subjected to eccentric compression loads. In this ... -
Experimental and Numerical Analyses of Shear Failure Mechanisms of Rock Bolt Surrounded by Bedded Rock
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2024)The effect of bedding cohesion and loading conditions on the bolting behavioral characteristics of a bedded rock mass was investigated using a self-developed artificial material and loading system. First, physical samples ... -
Experimental and Coupled Eulerian–Lagrangian Numerical Analyses of the Pullout Behavior of a Bearing Bar Reinforcement System
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)In recent years, there has been a re-emerging interest in using inextensible reinforcement systems in reinforced earth structures. Regarding the pullout mechanism, optimum arrangements of inextensible reinforcement systems ... -
Experimental and Analytical Investigation of Shear Behavior and Strength of Haunched Beams Reinforced with Basalt Fiber–Reinforced Polymer Rebars
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2024)Tapered beams are characterized by varying moments of inertia along their span, commonly the pier cap configuration used in bridge construction. This study presents the shear behavior of tapered beams reinforced with basalt ... -
Experimental and Analytical Investigation into the Mechanical Performance of a Novel Multitendon CFRP Anchorage
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2024)Aiming to address anchoring challenges associated with carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP) tendons used as cables, this study introduces a three-segment structure CFRP-bonded anchorage and conducts tests. Building upon ... -
A Tripartite Governance Strategy for Infrastructure REITs Considering Tax Incentives and Antiavoidance Regulations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2024)Tax incentives are a powerful driver for the development of infrastructure real estate investment trusts (REITs). Complementary antiavoidance regulations are essential to ensure the sustainable and healthy development of ... -
A Combined Damage and Mesomechanics Model for Recycled Aggregate Concrete Reinforced with Steel–Polypropylene Fibers
