Structural Performance of PC Double Beam–Column Connection Under Gravity and Seismic Loading
International Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials, 2020 Recently, as a new precast concrete (PC) construction method for increasing economy and constructability, the PC double-beam system has been developed for factories or logistic centers, where construction duration is particularly important. In this study,

Low cycle fatigue tests of reinforced concrete columns and joints built with ribbed reinforcement and plain stirrups [PDF]
, 2012 The majority of existing reinforced concrete (RC) buildings were built prior to the introduction of seismic codes. As observed in various recent earthquakes, due to their lack of structural capacity and ductility such structures are very vulnerable and

Computational Modelling Strategies for Nonlinear Response Prediction of Corroded Circular RC Bridge Piers [PDF]
, 2016 A numerical model is presented that enables simulation of the nonlinear flexural response of corroded reinforced concrete (RC) components. The model employs a force-based nonlinear fibre beam-column element. A new phenomenological uniaxial material model

Seismic amelioration of existing reinforced concrete buildings. Strategy to optimize the amount of reinforcement for joints [PDF]
, 2017 Most of the existing Reinforced Concrete (RC) buildings in Italy were built according to obsolete regulations that were not enough aware of issues related to seismic design so that they need to be upgraded by pursuing either amelioration or full seismic ...

Progressive Collapse Analysis of RC Beams
IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering, 2013 This paper investigates the nonlinear static analysis for studying the behavior of Progressive failure of RC beams. Nonlinear static analysis is strongly influenced by basic inputs like stress-strain relationship of constitutive materials, P-M yield interaction and moment rotation capacity of members.
