Seismic performance and damage evaluation of a reinforced concrete frame with hysteretic dampers through shake-table tests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Passive energy dissipation devices are increasingly implemented in frame structures to improve their performance under seismic loading. Most guidelines for designing this type of system retain the requirements applicable to frames without dampers, and ...

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 ...

Advanced Composite Retrofit of RC Columns and Frames with Prior Damages—Pseudodynamic Finite Element Analyses and Design Approaches

open access: yesFibers, 2021
This study develops three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) models of composite retrofits in deficient reinforced concrete (RC) columns and frames. The aim is to investigate critical cases of RC columns with inadequate lap splices of bars or corroded ...

Experimental and Numerical Research on Seismic Performance of Earthquake-Damaged RC Frame Strengthened with CFRP Sheets

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2016
In order to assess the seismic performance of damaged reinforced concrete (RC) frame strengthened with carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) sheets, two experimental specimens with identical reinforcement ratio and geometric dimensions were designed ...

Modelling shear-flexure interaction in equivalent frame models of slender RC walls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Quasi-static cyclic tests on reinforced concrete (RC) walls have shown that shear deformations can constitute a significant ratio of the total deformations when the wall is loaded beyond the elastic regime.

Earthquake induced interaction between RC frame and steel frame structures [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on The Built Environment, 2013
Dynamic step by step analyses are performed for the study of the structural pounding between a reinforced concrete (RC) frame structure and a steel (ST) frame structure. The examined RC frame is designed to Eurocodes EC2 and EC8 and the ST frame to EC3 and EC8. Both structural systems have ten (10) floor levels.

Experimental Study on Seismic Behaviour of RC Frames with Different Infilled Masonry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Six 1/2 scaled, single-storey, one-bay frame specimens were tested in this study to investigate the seismic behavior of masonry infilled reinforced concrete (RC) frames subjected to lateral loading. The variables investigated include types of masonry and
