Alkali-Silica Reaction (ASR) is a deleterious expansion phenomenon which affects the long-term behaviour of concrete. Its origin is a chemical reaction between amorphous silica present in the aggregates and alkali ions from the concrete pore solution. The ...
The strength and deformation capacity of concrete frames is typically governed by their nodal regions behaviour. This is particularly relevant for frame corners subjected to opening bending moments, where premature brittle failures may develop depending on ...
The conversion of existing buildings, development of standards, material deterioration and detailing deficiencies have led to a need for strengthening an increasing number of concrete flat slabs against brittle punching shear failure. However, existing ana ...
An experimental study on a series of composite beams combining a 250 mm (9.84 in.) deep reinforced concrete (RC) element and a 50 mm (1.97 in.) thick reinforced ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (R-UHPFRC) element is presented. The specimens ...
The addition of a thin overlay of reinforced UHPFRC (R-UHPFRC) to a reinforced concrete (RC) element creates a composite member which can be used for the strengthening of an existing structure and in the design of new structures. With its strain hardening ...
Flat-slab column connections are susceptible to brittle failure, which lead to the necessity of improving ductility and ultimate strength. In case of edge connections, the behaviour at ultimate state is highly influenced by nonsymmetrical distribution of s ...
This paper examines the evidence for the one-way shear model developed for the fib Model Code for Concrete Structures 2010 and provides examples of its application. For the design and analysis for shear, for members with and without shear reinforcement, th ...
The spreading of deicing salt on roads during winter and the consequent migration of chloride ions within concrete exposes structures reinforcement to corrosion. Reinforcement corrosion is problematic because it reduces the structure's load carrying capaci ...
This paper presents a plastic hinge modelling approach for wall-type bridge piers with detailing deficiencies such as low transverse reinforcement ratios and lap splices in potential plastic hinge regions. Currently available plastic hinge length estimates ...
Physical punching shear models such as the Critical Shear Crack Theory (CSCT), which is the basis of Model Code 2010 (MC 2010), describe generally the punching strength as a function of the slab deformation. Thus, the prediction of an accurate load-deforma ...
