Long‐term mechanical properties of hybrid fiber‐reinforced engineered cementitious composite

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Hybrid fiber‐reinforced engineered cementitious composites (hybrid ECC) employing short straight polyethylene (PE) and steel fibers have attracted growing interest in engineering applications due to their superior strength and ductility. In most studies, the mechanical properties of hybrid ECC were determined based on samples cured for 28 days,

Experimental behavior of shear deficient RC beams strengthened with CFRP strips against reversible cyclic earthquake load

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aims to prevent sudden and brittle shear failures in reinforced concrete beams, which are frequently caused by deficiencies in shear reinforcement. Following the Kahramanmaraş earthquakes in Turkey on February 6, 2023, inspections revealed that many reinforced concrete beams suffered severe damage due to design errors, high shear ...

Strip loading in reinforced concrete: Mechanical modeling and experimental validation

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Strip loading of reinforced concrete is a common problem in engineering practice. The concrete compressive strength at the load introduction can be several times higher than the uniaxial concrete compressive strength, which can be attributed to geometrical and passive confining stresses caused by load dispersion and reinforcement, respectively.

Experimental investigations and design of precast concrete‐filled steel corrugated sheet slender columns with intermediate connection

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Concrete‐filled steel corrugated sheet (CFSCS) offers confinement to the core concrete while the outer galvanized corrugated steel sheet (GCSS) offers excellent corrosion resistance. Application of precast multiple CFSCS columns connected through high‐performance concrete (HPC) in constructing a slender column offers ease of construction while
