Experimental Study on Seismic Behavior of Novel Prefabricated RC Joints with Welded Cover-Plate Steel Sleeve and Bolted Splice

open access: yesBuildings
In order to ensure the structural safety and serviceability of existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures, there is a compelling need to develop efficient techniques for the rapid replacement of damaged RC beams within strong-column–weak-beam ...

Development of hybrid composite plate (HCP) for the repair and strengthening of RC elements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Hybrid Composite Plates (HCPs) made of a Strain Hardening Cementitious Composite (SHCC) and reinforced with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) materials are developed by taking the synergetic advantages of SHCC and CFRP for the retrofitting of ...

Cyclic behaviour analysis of RC elements with plain reinforcing bars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The seismic performance of RC elements with plain reinforcing bars is particularly sensitive to the bond-slip mechanism. In this paper are described the cyclic tests performed on a two-spans beam with plain reinforcing bars and two beam-column joints ...

Strengthening of RC Beams with Prefabricated RC Rectangular Cross-Sectional Plates

open access: yesMathematical and Computational Applications, 2011
The topic of this study is to strengthen cracked beams with prefabricated RC rectangular cross-sectional plates. The damaged beams were repaired by epoxy based glue. The repaired beams were strengthened using prefabricated RC rectangular crosssectional plates.

Experimental Study on Flexural Performance of lap-spliced and mechanical-spliced (clamp type) rebars in RC Beams

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Structural Engineering
Various methods can be employed to splice reinforcement bars, including lap splicing, welding, and mechanical splicing. Lap splicing is the most used method among these techniques.

Effects of Prestressing Magnitude and Position on Seismic Performance of Unbonded Prestressed Concrete Beams

open access: yesBuildings
To study the effects of the jacking stress level, height and strength ratio of the prestress tendons (λ) on the seismic performance of unbonded prestressed concrete (UPC) beams, six UPC beams and one reinforced concrete (RC) beam were tested under cyclic

Detection on debondings in FRP-strengthened reinforced concrete beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Advanced composite materials are increasingly used in the strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. This strengthening method is often associated with a brittle and sudden failure caused by some form of FRP bond failure which may be ...

Composite using ECC-steel wire to strengthen RC beams: Flexural performance and FEM analysis

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
Strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) beams often face challenges, such as the brittleness of adopted materials and adhesive degradation over time. This study investigates a new strengthening method using engineered cementitious composite (ECC) and ...
