Seismic Response of GFRP-RC Interior Beam-to-Column Joints under Cyclic Static Loads
A total of nine specimens were constructed and tested under cyclic loads to investigate the differences in seismic behavior between glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP)-reinforced concrete (RC) joints and RC beam-to-column joints.

Architected Load Paths Enable Stiffening and Motion Programming in Soft Pneumatic Actuators. [PDF]
A single MARS template introduces an architected reinforcement strategy for programmable soft pneumatic actuators through internal structural organization and selective beam removal. This monolithic architecture enables deformation reconfiguration from continuous bending to joint‐like articulation and torsional motion, allowing one compliant platform ...

Seismic performance of reinforced concrete interior beam-column joints with novel reinforcement detail [PDF]
Horizontal stirrups are normally required in reinforced concrete (RC) beam-column joints (BCJs) for resisting shear forces in seismic design. For RC moment-resisting frames subjected to a high lateral load, a large number of stirrups are needed in joint ...

Bistable Networks Enable Complex Shape Changes. [PDF]
Transition‐controlled metamaterials are networks of bistable mechanical memory that store local binary states and express them as global shape change. By decoupling low‐force programming from high‐force holding, a single lattice is reconfigured into distinct 2D profiles and 3D surfaces without continuous actuation, enabling reusable morphing materials ...

Seismic behavior of non seismically designed eccentric reinforced concrete beam column joints
Non seismically designed eccentric reinforced concrete beam column joints were extensively used in existing reinforced concrete frame buildings, which were found to be vulnerable to seismic action in many incidences.

DAMAGE EVOLUTION FOR REPAIRABILITY OF SUBSTANDARD BEAM-COLUMN JOINTS [PDF]
Substandard reinforced concrete (RC) joints often exhibited poor seismic performance even under moderate intensity earthquakes, which is due to the lack of earthquake-resistant design detailing. Premature joint cracking often compromises the seismic performance of the entire building, initiating local collapses or global failure mechanisms.

Study of cold formed steel beam column joint to resist lateral load [PDF]
Cold Formed Steel (CFS) is one of the materials that recently used in building structures. There are many advantages of CFS compared with other materials, such as lightweight, high tensile strength, and fast construction. Hollow Structural Sections (HSS)

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF RC EXTERIOR BEAM-COLUMN JOINT SUBJECTED TO TORSIONAL MOMENT [PDF]
This paper presents the results of an experimental program conducted in order to investigate the behavior of Type-I beam-column Joints, where the beam was subjected to shear stresses due to combined effect of shear force and torsional moment (beam ...

A reinforced concrete frame is referred as "RIGID FRAMES". However, researches indicate that the Beam-Column joint (BCJ) is definitely not rigid. In addition, extensive research shows that failure may occur at the joint instead of in the beam or the ...
