Influence of Infill on Reinforced Concrete Frame Resting on Slopes under Lateral Loading

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
When compared to traditional reinforced concrete constructions on level surfaces, buildings situated on hills with slopes require additional consideration, particularly when seismic loading is an important factor.

Seismic design of reinforced concrete frames for minimum embodied CO2 emissions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Optimum structural design of reinforced concrete (RC) frames has been the focus of extensive research. Typically, previous studies set economic cost as the main design objective despite the fact that RC structures are major contributors of CO2 emissions.

Performance-Based Retrofitting of Aging RC Frames Using Innovative Knee-Braced Buckling-Restrained Braces for Enhanced Seismic Resilience [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
The performance of reinforced concrete (RC) structures is a critical area of research, given the increasing need for resilient infrastructure in seismically active regions. Deficient RC frames, commonly found in aging buildings, exhibit limited ductility

Seismic behavior of reinforced concrete buildings using chained masonry walls randomly located

open access: yesRevista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2022
The widespread use of masonry infill walls in the most prone zones to earthquakes, for the execution of multistoried reinforced concrete buildings, as well as the recorded damage caused by earthquakes, have forced us to study their influence on the ...

Plastic‐damage analysis of reinforced concrete frames [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering Computations, 2010
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to develop an improved analytical model for predicting the damage response of multi‐storey reinforced concrete frames modelled as an elastic beam‐column with two inelastic hinges at its ends.Design/methodology/approachThe damage is evaluated in the hinges, using the concentrated damage concepts and a new member ...

The effects of steel fibre reinforced concrete on system ductility

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2007
Steel fibre-reinforced concrete is being used extensively today in both field applications and experimental studies on concrete strength and ductility. The state of passive confinement generated by the fibre delays cracking and enhances ductility.

Robustness assessment of RC frame buildings with HPFRCC subjected to progressive collapse

open access: yesResults in Engineering, 2023
Beam-column joints are one of the most critical components of RC structures, affecting the structure's performance under different types of loads. In recent years, some researchers have considered high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites

The effect of masonry infill walls on the reinforced concrete frames behavior under lateral load [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The reinforced concrete structures with masonry infill walls are widely used to construct buildings in Algeria, as in many parts of the world. According to earthquake analysis, this type of construction can undergo serious damage under seismic load.

Conceptualising quality early childhood education: Learning from young children in Brazil and South Africa through creative and play‐based methods

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Early childhood has increasingly been acknowledged as a vital time for all children. Inclusive and quality education is part of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, with the further specification that all children have access to quality pre‐primary education.
