Decarbonization potential of steel fibre-reinforced limestone calcined clay cement concrete one-way slabs
This study deals with a comparison of the environmental performance of one-way slabs utilizing steel fibrereinforced limestone calcined clay cement (LC3) concrete with the control case of Ordinary Portland cement concrete. The experimental program constitu ...
Elsevier Sci Ltd2024Exploring the potential of the critical shear crack theory for reinforced and post-tensioned glass beams: Initial analysis and experiments
Alain Nussbaumer, Pieter Christian Louter, Jagoda Cupac
In the evolution of structural glass beam elements, the requirements for post-fracture load bearing capacity and safe failure behaviour have led to the development of reinforced and post-tensioned beams. Maximum bending capacity in the post-fracture state ...
2023Considerations on the partial safety factor format for reinforced concrete structures accounting for multiple failure modes
Aurelio Muttoni, Qianhui Yu, Miguel Fernández Ruiz
The increasing usage of nonlinear analyses for the design of reinforced concrete structures and the necessity of codes of practice to provide a consistent safety format for them is one of the challenges that new generations of codes of practice are facing. ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2022Characterization of shear deformations in reinforced concrete members without shear reinforcement
Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Raffaele Cantone, Andri Setiawan
The load-carrying capacity of many reinforced concrete structures is governed by shear failures, occurring before reaching the flexural capacity of the member. For redundant systems, such as slabs subjected to concentrated loads, local shear failures (typi ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2022Influence of sustained loading on resistance and deformation capacity of reinforced concrete members in compression
Aurelio Muttoni, Xhemsi Malja, Miguel Fernández Ruiz
As acknowledged explicitly or implicitly in most of current design codes, a high level of sustained loading has a detrimental effect on the concrete compressive strength. However, its beneficial effect in terms of deformation capacity is neglected in most ...
ERNST & SOHN2022Influence of amount of shear reinforcement and its post-yield response on the shear resistance of reinforced concrete members
Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Frédéric Monney
The minimum amount of shear reinforcement to be provided in reinforced concrete members has been a topic of debate and research for decades without reaching a consensus. Defining such values is however instrumental to build in an economic manner and to saf ...
ERNST & SOHN2022Anchorage of shear reinforcement in beams and slabs
Aurelio Muttoni, Qianhui Yu, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Frédéric Monney
Anchorage of shear reinforcement, such as links or stirrups, can be performed by providing hooks, bends or heads at their ends, by welding transverse reinforcement or by closing open stirrups with pins. Hooks and bends, also used to enhance the anchorage o ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2022The influence of transverse reinforcement and yielding of flexural reinforcement on the shear-transfer actions of RC members
The assessment of the shear strength of reinforced concrete beams with and without shear reinforcement is investigated in this paper on the basis of the contribution of the various potential shear-transfer actions. To that aim, a comprehensive experimental ...
2021Casting position effects on bond performance of reinforcement bars
Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Francesco Rafael Alberto Moccia
The phenomena associated with the consolidation of fresh concrete (bleeding and plastic settlement) are commonly considered significant for the bond performance of reinforcement. However, rules to take care of such influence for design are not consistent a ...
ERNST & SOHN2021Combined Shear-Flexural Verification Of In Plane Loaded Reinforced And Unreinforced Masonry Walls
The safety verification of in-plane loaded masonry panels requires the evaluation of at least three different collapse conditions connected with overturning, shear sliding, and shear - compression failure at the panels' toe. In reinforced panels, the resis ...
