An investigational behaviour of RCC Core Steel Composite Column

Flexural Behaviour of RCC Beams

Concrete is the material which is rapidly used in various conditions to sustain the compression loads and the corresponding bending and shear stress due to the applied compressive loads. The major drawback in concrete is that it is poor in tension though it is very efficient in compression. Hence to overcome this major drawback the concrete must be reinforced such that to make a homogeneous sub...

Structural Behaviour of Partially Filled Steel Grid Composite Deck

Failure of an Impulsively-loaded Composite Steel/polymer Plate

The concept of spraying thick layer of polymer material onto metal plate has recently received considerable interest in many civilian and military applications. There are numerous analytical and numerical solutions for single thin plates (membrane) made of either a steel or an elastomer. However, solutions for composite plate made of both of the above constituents are lacking. The objective of ...

Influence of Shear Connection Distributions on the Behaviour of Continuous Steel-concrete Composite Beams

For this purpose a finite element model specifically developed for the nonlinear analysis of steel-concrete composite beams is adopted. This finite element model includes material nonlinearity of slab concrete, reinforcement steel, beam steel as well as slabbeam nonlinear partial interaction due to the deformable shear connection. The inclusion of the partial interaction in the composite beam m...

Strength and behaviour of Fly Ash based Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete Composite

This experimental investigation is to study the effects of replacement of cement (by weight) with five percentage of fly ash and the effects of addition of steel fiber composite. A control mixture of proportions 1:1:49:1.79 with w/c of 0.45 was designed. Cement was replaced with five percentages (10%, 15%, 20%, 25% & 30%) of Class C fly ash. Four percentages of steel fibers (0.15%, 0.30%, 0.45%...
