The research efforts reported here are aimed at experimentally investigating the effects of incorporating steel fibres, with various dosages, on shear capacity and behaviour characteristics reinforced concrete deep beams. primary experimental results obtained during this research, as well an extensive secondary dataset, were used to examine verify a proposed new model by authors for calculating...

Push-out tests of steel reinforced lightweight concrete(SRLC) were carried out for nine specimens which designed according to the orthogonal test method considering four influence factors including strength aggregate concrete, stirrup ratio, thickness protective layer and anchorage length. The curves average bond stress loading-end slip drawn, characteristics split failure push-out analyzed, ch...

Inorganic polymer concrete (IPC) reinforced with basalt fibre (BFRP) was proposed as a promising substitute of conventional for structures to enhance their sustainability and durability. This paper, the first time, presents systematic study, experimental, theoretical numerical, shear behaviour IPC beams BFRP bars stirrups considering effects stirrup spacing (S = 80, 100 150 mm) span-to-depth ra...

In order to understand the seismic damage assessment of reinforced concrete column members, coupling relationship between capacity degradation and accumulated hysteretic energy displacement history was considered. The energy-based index under random variable amplitude loading proposed. On basis preliminary research, corresponding construction member parameters established, mechanism analyzed ac...

Building fire is one of the most frequent disasters. The mechanical properties concrete and steel will deteriorate to different degrees under exposure, thus weakening bearing capacity reinforced (RC) members. Therefore, it great theoretical practical significance carry out research on RC members subjected fire. To study residual shear post-fire beams indirect loading, static load tests were car...

Ankle sprains are a common problem seen by primary care physicians, especially among teenagers and young adults. Most ankle sprains are inversion injuries to the lateral ankle ligaments, although high sprains representing damage to the tibiofibular syndesmosis are becoming increasingly recognized. Physicians should apply the Ottawa ankle rules to determine whether radiography is needed. Accordi...

Most of the techniques that have been described for large-scale, preparative paper c hromatograp hy depe nd on an i.ncrease in bulk through the use of many closely pressed layers of a thin paper [IJ.' So me of these methods require the tedious loading of each s hee t , and others tend to suffer from a lack of uniformity in the movement of compounds thro ughout the bulk. Th e latter disadvantage...
