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.

Split‐disk testing of precast ultra‐high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete tubes
Abstract Ultra‐high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) has great potential for structural applications involving precast cylindrical shapes, including pipes, silos and stay‐in‐place forms for concrete columns. This study examines the performance of UHPFRC rings under internal pressure simulated using the split‐disk loading method, along ...

Abstract This article examines the behavior of reinforced‐concrete pile caps on two piles under concentric and eccentric loading, with emphasis on the influence of horizontal and vertical supplementary reinforcement on load‐carrying capacity. Although the Strut‐and‐Tie method does not include this reinforcement in the internal equilibrium, it was found
