TUM bond database with full‐scale beam tests on anchorages and laps in tension
Civil Engineering Design, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 3-10, March 2026.Abstract Reliable experimental data is essential for the development and validation of structural design models. However, existing bond databases often lack consistency, traceability, and overall data quality. To address this, the Technical University of Munich (TUM) developed the TUM Bond Database (TUMBD), a curated collection of experimental test ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 603-623, March 2026.ABSTRACT A significant portion of existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures in seismically active regions was constructed prior to the adoption of modern seismic design standards, leaving them highly susceptible to earthquake‐induced damage. The vulnerabilities of these structures, often exacerbated by material degradation, have been starkly ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 781-803, March 2026.ABSTRACT Over recent decades, the collection of seismic data has improved the understanding of near‐fault ground motion effects, which involve both horizontal and vertical components. Among the most significant effects are fault‐normal directivity, which concentrates seismic energy into an intense, long‐period pulse, and fault‐parallel fling step ...
