Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Linear elastic finite element analyses (LEFEAs) have become more frequent in the design and assessment of reinforced concrete slabs under concentrated loads, as they enable low‐cost evaluation of the distribution of shear forces over critical sections.

Split‐disk testing of precast ultra‐high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete tubes
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Ultra‐high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) has great potential for structural applications involving precast cylindrical shapes, including pipes, silos and stay‐in‐place forms for concrete columns. This study examines the performance of UHPFRC rings under internal pressure simulated using the split‐disk loading method, along ...

Multi‐level fatigue reliability assessment of reinforced concrete railway bridges
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This paper presents a multi‐level reliability framework for assessing the fatigue life of reinforced concrete (RC) railway trough bridges subjected to cyclic loading. The framework incorporates increasing levels of analytical complexity and real‐world data in four steps. First, an analytical model applies S–N curves and the Palmgren–Miner rule

Simple and detailed modeling of corrosion‐affected slender shear critical RC beams
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The corrosion of steel bars compromises both the safety and the serviceability of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Consequently, reliable tools are required to estimate the detrimental effects of corrosion on the structural response of RC members subjected to transverse loads.
