Rotation capacity of continuous reinforced concrete slab strips revisited
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Rotation capacity is a key characteristic of statically indeterminate reinforced concrete structures, as it (i) enables bending moment redistributions, whether intentionally introduced through optimized reinforcement layouts or arising from unforeseen self‐equilibrated stress states, and (ii) promotes large rotations at failure load, thereby ...

Rational Estimation of Initial State of Post-tensioned Concrete Beams Using Field Measurement Data
International Journal of Concrete Structures and MaterialsAccurate estimation of initial prestress is essential for ensuring the structural integrity, durability, and quality management of prestressed concrete (PSC) girders. However, conventional estimation methods that rely on design provisions or experimental

The challenges of GFRP RC beam design for limit states
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars are used ever more frequently in concrete construction due to their non‐corrosive and anti‐magnetic properties. Their research over the past decades focused on fundamental questions, such as the design aspects of beams under flexural loads.

BuildingsPrestressed concrete (PSC) beams are widely used in bridges and large structures due to their high load-bearing capacity and crack resistance. However, owing to their complex construction process, they are highly sensitive to temperature variations ...

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The acoustic emission (AE) technique has proven to be an effective method for detecting individual wire breaks in prestressed concrete structures affected by stress corrosion cracking (SCC). However, despite its widespread application, the quantitative assessment of AE monitoring reliability and optimal sensor placement remains unresolved ...

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract During their life cycle, prestressed concrete bridges are prone to wire breaks of their tendons due to fatigue or stress corrosion cracking. However, not all structures show visible cracking on the surface, which would provide timely warning of otherwise invisible damage. Brittle failure may occur.

Durability performance of a high‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete for bridge applications
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This paper investigates the durability performance of a coarse‐aggregate high‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (HPFRC) developed as a cost‐efficient material solution for precast bridge applications. A comprehensive experimental program was conducted to assess the resistance of the material to the principal deterioration mechanisms ...
