A Review of Previous Studies on the Reinforced Concrete Corbels

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
Corbels are short-hunched cantilevers that project from inner face of columns to support heavy concentrated loads or beam reactions. They are very important structural elements for supporting precast beams, girders and any other form of precast structure

Strut-tie method of design and possible serviceability problems: an exploration by NLFE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The strut and tie method presents a rational and consistent approach to the design of all parts in a reinforced concrete structure. With this approach, the load carrying mechanism of the structure is represented by approximating the compressive stress

Structural Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Deep Beams: Comparative Analysis of Experimental and Finite Element Methods

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams are increasingly used in structural applications such as offshore platforms, high‐rise buildings, foundations, and nuclear facilities. However, the absence of a universally accepted strut‐and‐tie method (STM) for their design remains a critical challenge.

Clamping and interlocking effects on IBS block house system in comparison with conventional house system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Industrialised Building System (IBS) is a unique construction technique that has been implemented in many construction fields all around the world. However, its implementation in Malaysia is still slow and not effective. Through the research on IBS, some

Innovation and modernization of Gabčíkovo lock chambers

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 4, Page 4015-4029, August 2025.
Abstract From 2019 to 2023, extensive innovation and modernization took place at the lock chambers of the Gabčíkovo waterworks to increase the safety and intensity of the water transport. The waterworks is located on the Danube River about 60 km southeast of Bratislava—the capital of Slovakia.

SHALLOW FLAT SOFFIT PRECAST CONCRETE FLOOR SYSTEM [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A precast concrete floor system that eliminates the need for column corbels and beam ledges while being very shallow. The main advantages of the present system include a span to-depth ratio of 30, a flat soffit, economy, consistency with prevailing ...

Dynamic Test of Negative Stiffness Damped Outrigger With Damping Amplification

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 1141-1155, 10 April 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper proposed a novel negative stiffness damped outrigger with damping amplification (NSDO‐DA) through a smart combination of an L‐shape lever, a precompressed disc spring brace (DSB), and a viscous damper. A theoretical model of the NSDO‐DA considering nonlinear adaptive negative stiffness, damping amplification of nonlinear viscous ...

Numerical simulation of mechanical behavior of reinforced concrete column - short corbel assembly repaired and strengthened by bonding composite materials

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering
The experimental investigation of reinforced concrete structures is a high time resource consuming process. One of the best solutions to reduce the consumed resource is the finite element simulation of those structures.
