Effect of tightening zone length of reinforced concrete beams on beam capacity

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...

Development of Shear Capacity Equations for Rectangular Reinforced Concrete Beams

The problem of shear is not yet fully understood due to involvement of number of parameters. Designers are extra careful about shear, especially in beams and consequently higher safety factors are used in shear design. Several equations are available in literature to determine the shear capacity of beams, i.e. ACI equation, Zsutty equation and KIM & White equation. To verify the application of ...

plastic hinge rotation capacity of reinforced concrete beams

a parametric study is performed to assess the influence of the tension reinforcement index, ( ω = ρ fy /f bc), and the bending moment distribution (loading type) on the ultimate deformation characteristics of reinforced concrete (rc) beams. the analytical results for 15 simply supported beams with different amounts of tension reinforcement ratio under three different loading conditions are pres...
