Numerical Analysis of Retrofitted RC Column under Lateral Load [PDF]
One of the most common retrofitting processes for columns is reinforced concrete (RC) jacketing. This process enhances the ductility, stiffness, flexural capacity, and shear capacity of columns, and increases the axial load-carrying capacity of the RC ...

Abstract The vertical structural components of RC frame buildings are the fundamental elements that ensure lateral stability of entire system under exceptional seismic loading situations. In this study, various scenarios of transverse reinforcement of RC columns for this structural system were numerically studied.

Seismic Performance Analysis of RC Frames with ECC Short Columns Based on the IDA Method
Engineered cementitious composite (ECC) is a high-performance composite material with greater shear deformation and shear strength than normal concrete, which has been proposed for use as a shear component in structures.

Structural behavior of single bay two-story basalt fiber reinforced concrete frame
This study focuses on structural design, which is a primary aspect of civil engineering. Investigating the behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) frame systems subjected to lateral loading and estimating the damage state of a structure still remain ...

Direct loss‐based seismic design of reinforced concrete frame and wall structures
This paper presents a procedure to design reinforced concrete (RC) buildings to achieve an acceptable target level of earthquake‐induced loss (e.g., deaths, dollars, downtime) under a site‐specific hazard profile.

Strain Rate Effect on the Progressive Collapse Analysis of RC Frame Structure under Earthquake
The strain rate effect can influence the seismic responses of reinforced concrete (RC) structures because the constitutive relationship of concrete and rebar is rate-dependent.
