Calculation of reinforced concrete structures under conditions of flat stressed state

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

Simplified reliability analysis of punching in reinforced concrete flat slab buildings under accidental actions

Flat slab concrete buildings are widely found in infrastructure such as office and residential buildings or industrial facilities. The susceptibility of progressive collapse of such structures due to accidental loads is highly dependent on the structural performance of the slab-column connections. This paper presents a framework for a simplified reliability analysis and derivation of safety fac...

Damage Detection of Carbon Fiber-reinforced Concrete Under Bending Test

A Review on Self-healing in Reinforced Concrete Structures in View of Serving Conditions

In this paper, different mechanisms of self-healing, i.e. self-healing based on adhesive agents, self-healing based on bacteria, self-healing based on autogenous self-healing were described. Their required conditions were summarized. The previous investigations showed that all mechanisms of self-healing are effective to some extend under particular conditions. In this paper, concrete structures...

Shake Table Tests of Reinforced Concrete Flat Plate Frames and Post-tensioned Flat Plate Frames

A research study was undertaken to assess performance of flat plate systems constructed with slab shear reinforcement under dynamic loads. The research program consisted of shake table tests and accompanying analytical studies of two, approximately one-third scale, two-story, two-bay, slab-column frames. One specimen was constructed with reinforced concrete (RC) slab, whereas the other specimen...
