Improving the Strength of Steel Perforated Plate Girders Loaded in Shear Using CFRP laminates [PDF]

Engineering and Technology Journal, 2015
The structural behavior of perforated composite web plate girders under shear loading is studied. Five steel plate girders have been tested. Two of them are reference girders, not perforated and perforated.

MACHINE LEARNING APPLICATIONS FOR EVALUATING FIRE PERFORMANCE OF STEEL‐FRAMED BUILDINGS: A REVIEW

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 412-423, April 2026.
Abstract Machine Learning (ML) is increasingly applied to evaluate the fire performance of steel‐framed buildings, from predicting material behaviour at elevated temperatures to estimating member resistance and system‐level collapse. Recent advances include interpretable models, physics‐informed methods, and emerging surrogate strategies that embed ...

BEHAVIOUR OF COMPOSITE PLATE GIRDERS WITH PARTIAL INTERACTION

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2013
This paper is concerned with the behaviour and strength of composite plate girders in which, the interaction between the steel plate girder and concrete slab is partial. Based on curvature compatibility principle, an approximate method is proposed from which, the shear capacity and deflection at any given load may be determined.

Characteristics of Deformation and Damage of Multi‐Thin Composite Oil Shale Top Plate Under the Influence of Different Factors

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 2118-2136, April 2026.
In this study, the key control mechanism of surrounding rock stability is revealed by theoretical analysis and UDEC‐Trigon numerical simulation method, aiming at the problem that oil shale roof is prone to separation and slip deformation under complex stress.

Modeling the response of UHPC shear‐critical beams: Integrating nonlinear finite element analysis and artificial neural network

Structural Concrete, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 1364-1382, April 2026.
Abstract An analytical framework suited for the analysis of shear‐critical ultra‐high performance concrete (UHPC) members is presented. The numerical methodology utilizes a nonlinear finite element analysis formulation integrated with an artificial neural network (ANN) that characterizes the UHPC tension response based on its mix design. In addition, a

Dual potential capacity model for short and deep reinforced concrete members containing steel fibers

Structural Concrete, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 2675-2703, April 2026.
Abstract This study presents an analytical model for estimating the shear strength of short and deep steel fiber‐reinforced concrete (SFRC) members with a shear span‐to‐depth ratio less than 2.5. To this end, a dual potential capacity model (DPCM) is developed based on the demand‐capacity approach for evaluating the shear strength of SFRC beams that ...

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

Structural Concrete, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 1723-1746, April 2026.
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 ...
