The present Experimental investigation is to study the Mechanical Properties of the Fly ash concrete reinforced with steel fibers. The concrete composite comprises of steel fibers in different percentages and partial replacement of cement in different proportions. Steel fibers varied from 0%, 0.5%, 1% and 1.5% by weight of cement and replacement of fly ash varied from 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% ...

This study aimed to investigate the precast reinforced concrete beam-to-column joints behaviors through replaceable damper under cyclic loading. The specimens have been embedded with steel reinforcement and specially shaped connectors. After application of loading, energy dissipation part has acted very well increased bearing capacity specimens. beam–to–column were designed analyzed compare (RC...

─This paper presents the retrofitting of beam-column joint using CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) and steel plate. This specimen was tested until failure up to 1.0% drift. This joint suffered severe damages and diagonal cracks at upper crack at upper column before retrofitted. CFRP were wrapped at corbel, bottom and top of the column. Steel plates with bonding were attached to the two bea...

Fibres are generally used as resistance of cracking and strengthening of concrete. In this project, I am going to carry out test on steel fibre reinforced concrete to check the influence of fibres on flexural strength of concrete. According to various research papers, it has been found that steel fibres give the maximum strength in comparison to glass and polypropylene fibres. Hence, in this pr...

Abstract: Despite having a number of advantages, reinforced concrete can suffer rebar corrosion in high–chloride media, resulting in failure of reinforced concrete structures. In this research the corrosion inhibition capability of the mixture of calcium and ammonium nitrate of steel rebar corrosion was investigated in the simulated concrete pore solution. Cyclic polarization and Electroche...

In this paper, a research study is presented focusing on the effect of substituting brittle concrete in conventional reinforced concrete column members with a ductile engineered cementitious composite (ECC). Based on the material properties of ECC, the interaction with structural reinforcement is characterized by compatible deformations of the reinforcement and ECC matrix in the elastic and ine...

Enhancement of the response of reinforced concrete (RC) beams using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement bars has become a popular structural technique over the past two decades due to the well-known advantages of FRP composites including their high strength-to-weight ratio and excellent corrosion resistance. Thisstudy presents n...

ABSTRACT: The absence of explicit guidelines for the rehabilitation of existing pole structures was the motivation to investigate the effectiveness of steel jacketing for the retrofitting of self-supporting steel and reinforced concrete telecommunication poles. The present study describes a numerical simulation of preand post-retrofitted conditions of the pole structures subjected to seismic ha...
