Modelling of reinforced concrete slab deflections at service loading

open access: yes, 1994
Includes bibliographical references.Deflection under service loading is an important aspect of reinforced concrete slab design. Under-design can cause large deflections which can be expensive to repair, if at all possible.

Effects of Wall‐to‐Floor Interactions on Seismic Response of Platform‐Type CLT Buildings

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Platform‐type cross‐laminated timber (CLT) buildings feature discontinuous wall segments supported by CLT floors. In practice, CLT floors are often treated as rigid diaphragm, yet the wall‐to‐floor interactions (WFIs) associated with flexibility of floors remain insufficiently investigated during seismic performance assessment.

Shear behavior of geopolymer concrete beams reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer bars

open access: yes, 2017
The shear behavior of geopolymer concrete beams reinforced with GFRP bars and stirrups was investigated. Six short beams with a shear-span-to-effective-depth ratio (a/d) of 1.8 were cast: one with no stirrups, three with different stirrup spacing, one ...

Empirical Model of Post‐Earthquake Restoration Time for Building Components Based on Data From the 2022 Fukushima‐ken Oki Earthquake in Japan

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Estimation of the time required for damaged building components to return to their pre‐earthquake conditions through repair is a critical element in assessing the seismic resilience of buildings, and it requires consideration of uncertainty.

Development of phenolic concrete mixes and structural behaviour of phenolic concrete components [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
This work relates to the development of a method of preparing a filled phenolic resin, for use particularly, but not exclusively, in building materials. The method includes mixing filler and micro-filler, a catalyst, resin and a hetrocyclic alcohol (i.e.

Repeatability and Parasitic Out‐of‐Plane Motion in Controlled Rocking Structures With Cylindrical Columns: Results From Triaxial Shake Table Tests

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Self‐centering rocking structures outperform conventional ones since they show zero post‐earthquake damage and excellent recentering; however, their applications remain limited due to concerns that rocking is extremely sensitive and nonrepeatable. This paper investigates the repeatability and parasitic out‐of‐plane motion of controlled rocking
