ULTIMATE STRENGTH OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAM-COLUMN JOINT AT SOFT-FIRST-STORY IN OPENING DIRECTION

Effect Of Web Reinforcement On Ultimate Strength Of Reinforced Concrete Deep Beam

It is observed that, reinforced concrete beams failed due to flexure but in case of deep beam failure occur due to shear. Deep beams may be defined as the beam where shear span to depth ratio less than 2. A number of researchers already proposed various approach to predict the ultimate strength of deep beams. In this study a newer approach is developed to calculate the ultimate shear strength o...

Full Scale Reinforced Concrete Beam-Column Joints Strengthened with Steel Reinforced Polymer Systems

This paper presents the results of an experimental campaign performed at the Laboratory of Materials and Structural Testing of the University of Salerno (Italy) in order to investigate the seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beam-column joints strengthened with steel reinforced polymer (SRP) systems. With the aim to represent typical façade frames’ beam-column subassemblies found in...

Forecasting of Shear Strength of Concrete Beam Reinforced with FRP Bar

This study develops a new approach for forecasting shear Strength of concrete beam without stirrups based on the artificial neural networks (ANN). Proposed ANN considers geometric and mechanical properties of cross section and FRP bars, and shear span-depth ratio. The ANN model is constructed from a set of experimental database available in the past literature. Efficiency of the ANN model was c...
