Experimental and theoretical investigation of longitudinal tunnel lining joints with confining reinforcement

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Precast reinforced concrete segmental linings are frequently used in modern tunneling. In these linings, the longitudinal joints typically have a reduced contact cross‐section and thus often govern the design, particularly in tunnels under high hydrostatic pressure or crossing squeezing or swelling ground with correspondingly high ...

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.

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 ...

Performance enhancement of reinforced concrete columns using stainless steel and galvanized steel plates: Experimental and numerical investigation

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study introduces an innovative approach to strengthening defected reinforced concrete (RC) columns using externally bonded stainless steel and galvanized steel plates. Unlike conventional strengthening methods, this technique replaces traditional transverse stirrups with steel sheets, providing enhanced confinement and ductility.

Flexural performance of concrete‐filled steel tubular beams with wood chip aggregate

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the flexural performance of concrete‐filled steel tubular (CFST) beams with partial replacement of aggregates by wood chips (0%–25%) through experimental and numerical analysis. This study is novel in that it experimentally and numerically investigates the flexural behavior of CFST beams with partial replacement of ...
