Experimental study of the size effect on punching shear of steel fiber reinforced concrete slabs

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract As the behavior and design of steel fiber reinforced concrete slabs subjected to punching still remain an area of concern, the present work aims to provide a further contribution to the knowledge on punching behavior of slabs without transverse reinforcement.

Numerical analysis of the effects of corrosion on the punching shear capacity of reinforced concrete flat slabs with openings

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The reinforcement corrosion is one of the main degradation mechanisms in reinforced concrete structures. Its effects can harm structural elements by reducing mechanical capacity, mainly due to diminished reinforcement properties and expansive reactions within the concrete.

Evaluation of prestress losses in concrete beams using destructive and non‐destructive methods

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past few decades, prestressing techniques have become essential in the construction of key structures, infrastructure, and bridges. The serviceability and safety of prestressed concrete (PC) elements are closely tied to the effectiveness of the prestressing process.

An enhanced analytical model for predicting shear strength in reinforced concrete beams with corroded reinforcement

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents an analytical model to predict the shear strength of RC beams affected by corrosion within the Level IIb framework of fib Model Code 2020. Corrosion is accounted for by (i) reducing the area of longitudinal reinforcement, (ii) degrading the yield strength of stirrups according to Imperatore's law, and (iii) reducing the ...

Concrete breakout strength prediction of anchors in Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete based on material test datasets

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of steel fiber‐reinforced concrete (SFRC) has seen a significant rise in the construction industry due to advancements in material science, improved quality, and cost efficiency. Similarly, the importance of fastening systems in construction has grown, necessitating robust research on the performance of fasteners in SFRC to ensure safe

Experimental investigation on post‐installed anchorages with cast‐in anchor reinforcement under tension loading

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Anchors are used to connect different structural and non‐structural components to reinforced concrete structures. Anchorages when subjected to tension loading might fail in different failure modes, with concrete cone breakout (CCB) being one of the most common.

Large‐scale tests of 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete bridge girders

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract An experimental investigation has been carried out as part of the BRIDGE|50 research project, focusing on large‐scale loading tests performed on five 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete (PC) girders. The study aimed at evaluating the structural response of five girders retrieved from a viaduct in the urban area of Turin, Italy, subjected to 4 ...

Moment‐curvature behavior of continuous reinforced concrete slab strips—Experimental determination and modeling

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract With the market introduction of new reinforcing materials, such as corrosion‐resistant steel, the effect of their stress–strain relationship on the ductility of reinforced concrete structures needs to be evaluated. Their moment‐curvature behavior significantly influences bending moment redistributions, rotation capacity, and deformation at ...

Evaluations of the effectiveness of the near‐surface mounted steel materials in strengthening short RC wall‐like columns with openings

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract In practice, reinforced concrete (RC) wall‐like columns often have openings to facilitate building services, which creates stress concentrations around the opening, resulting in the weakening of their load‐carrying capacity. This study proposes innovative strengthening methods using near‐surface mounted (NSM) incorporating steel materials to ...
