The observation of cracks in normally functioning reinforced concrete (RC) structures is expected as the tensile strength of concrete is relatively low. However, one or more of those cracks can start to propagate with increasing crack openings, localizing ...

Resistance and ductility of FRP composite hybrid joints

Thomas Keller, Lulu Liu, Xin Wang

An experimental investigation of the load-bearing behavior and ductility of FRP hybrid double-lap joints composed of both adhesively-bonded and bolted connection parts was conducted. Amongst other things, the effects of the adherends’ fiber architecture (u ...

FRP (fiber reinforced polymer) strips are used to flexurally strengthen reinforced concrete (RC) beams. The global bond strength namely the maximum transferable bond stress due to the increase of FRP tensile stress in a cracked concrete element (subsequent ...

Development of a consistent approach for design and assessment of structural concrete members using stress fields and strut-and-tie models

Filip Niketic

Designing new concrete members and assessing the strength of existing elements subjected to in-plane stress state conditions is often conducted by means of Stress Fields (SF) and Strut-and-Tie Models (STM). These methods are usually accounting for identica ...

Post-tensioned glass beams

Jagoda Cupac

Over the last few decades, the application of glass in building construction has extended from small four-side supported windowpanes to areas traditionally reserved for other materials, such as roofs, floors, staircases and full building envelopes. Glass i ...

The response of reinforced concrete (RC) elements subjected to in-plane shear and axial stresses is governed by various potential failure mechanisms. For structural panels subjected to uniform stress states, their ultimate strength can be governed by yield ...

Multiaxial and variable amplitude fatigue in steel bridges

Cláudio Alexandre Pereira Baptista

Modern bridge construction all over Europe in the last decades, has highlighted the importance of steel solutions for the design of bridges. Steel bridges have become slender and lighter with the generalisation of welded connections. These features increas ...

Structural performance of complex core systems for FRP-balsa composite sandwich bridge decks

Michael Osei-Antwi

Based on current fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite construction principles, FRP decks fall into two categories: pultruded decks and sandwich decks. Sandwich decks comprise face sheets and either honeycombs or foams reinforced with internal FRP webs ...

Experimental investigation and modelling of the structural behaviour of confined grouted interfaces for a new steel–concrete connection

Jean-Paul Lebet, Dimitrios Papastergiou

Confined interfaces between cement grout and other materials such as embossed steel or rough concrete are formed in an innovative new steel-concrete connection for composite bridges. This article presents the experimental study of such interfaces and inves ...
