strengthening of slender rc shear wall with frp sheets
concrete shear walls are the most prevalent structural systems resisting lateral loads due to earthquakes in high-rise buildings. very large in-plane stiffness of shear walls provides an excellent drift control in the structure. however, structural damages and early code shortcomings threaten the efficiency of existing structural walls against earthquake. recently, fiber reinforced polymer (frp...
متن کاملStrengthening Plaster Wall Systems
A Portland cement plaster wall system has many positive features, but one of the physical properties that it does not possess is flexural strength. It is because of the inability of the Portland cement plaster membrane to bend or flex that glass fiber strands were used in Portland cementbased plaster. There are various types of synthetic fibers on the market that will provide flexural strength ...
متن کاملDetection of Bricks in a Masonry Wall
Laser scanning is being increasingly applied in the documentation of buildings and archaeological sites. The documentation process sometimes involves making an inventory of bricks in walls. This paper proposes an automatic/semi-automatic segmentation method for detecting bricks in walls, in particular masonry walls. In developing the detection method the problems with detecting bricks in a 3D p...
متن کاملConcrete Shear Wall Construction
Buildings with cast-in-situ reinforced concrete shear walls are widespread in many earthquake-prone countries and regions, such as Canada, Chile, Romania, Turkey, Colombia, the republics of the former Soviet Union, etc. This type of construction has been practiced since the 960s in urban regions for mediumto high-rise buildings (4 to 35 stories high). Shear wall buildings are usually regular in...
متن کاملAssessing the Rebound Hammer Test for Rammed Earth Material
Rammed-earth (RE) is a construction material manufactured from the soil. The soil is compacted at its optimum water content, inside a formwork to build a monolithic wall. RE material is attracting renewed interest throughout the world thanks to its sustainable characteristics: low embodied energy, substantial thermal inertia, and natural regulator of moisture; on the other hand, the existing hi...
