Influence of shear reinforcement detailing on the shear capacity of reinforced concrete beams
Abstract Alternative shear reinforcement layouts that do not fully enclose the longitudinal tensile reinforcement can significantly improve the constructability of reinforced concrete (RC) members. However, their influence on shear transfer mechanisms is not yet fully understood. To address this gap, an experimental program comprising 10 shear tests on

Abstract The concrete industry is responsible for a significant portion of global waste production and multi‐generation recycled aggregate concrete (MGRAC) is a means to allow the sector to transition to a circular economy framework. To predict the behavior of MGRAC at the member level there is a need to understand the underlying mechanics of bond ...

Abstract This paper presents a regression‐based methodology to estimate the Torsional Stiffness Reduction Factor (TSRF) of reinforced concrete beams under combined torsion and shear. A numerical database of 6816 samples was generated using the Combined Action Softened Truss Model (CA‐STM) implemented in Python, considering design guidelines prescribed ...

Evaluating structural resistance and updating modeling uncertainties through testing
Abstract The aging of infrastructure necessitates a robust and rational methodology for the assessment of existing structures. Design codes provide general models which cover different design scenarios and are thus overly conservative. Also, such design approaches lack field data and, if applied directly to existing works, often lead to unnecessarily ...

Abstract Experimental campaigns on reinforced concrete members, being the basis for database evaluations used for validation of many shear design approaches, mostly include simply supported single‐span beams with concentrated loads. Other support and loading conditions representative for actual slab systems are highly underrepresented.
