Strut and tie model for predicting shear behavior of interior RC beam column joints under seismic loading [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Beam–column joint with complex mechanical behavior is an important part of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. The present study aims to assess the joint shear stress–strain relationship by adopting strut–and–tie approach of the interior beam-column ...

Numerical Analysis of Retrofitted RC Column under Lateral Load [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Engineering and Physical Modeling, 2022
One of the most common retrofitting processes for columns is reinforced concrete (RC) jacketing. This process enhances the ductility, stiffness, flexural capacity, and shear capacity of columns, and increases the axial load-carrying capacity of the RC ...
