Shear wall plan layout optimization considering seismic loads
Abstract Seismic force resistant structural design requires experience and time. Shear wall elements are generally used in concrete structures due to their high stiffness against horizontal forces. The aim of this study is to obtain optimum structural wall disposition by using building information modeling (BIM) technologies.

Calculation of vertical seismic hydrodinamic loads [PDF]
This paper analyzes Zangar's method for calculation of seismic hydrodynamic loads acting at the inclined contour of a concrete gravity dam. Different numerical models are compared with the procedure proposed by Zangar, and the regression formula that eliminates the observed discrepancies is proposed.

Abstract Concrete‐filled steel corrugated sheet (CFSCS) offers confinement to the core concrete while the outer galvanized corrugated steel sheet (GCSS) offers excellent corrosion resistance. Application of precast multiple CFSCS columns connected through high‐performance concrete (HPC) in constructing a slender column offers ease of construction while

Performance of two‐to‐one non‐contact post‐installed lap splices
Abstract Post‐installed lap splices ensure the continuity of steel reinforcement in concrete‐to‐concrete connections by overlapping cast‐in (CI) reinforcing bars (rebars) with post‐installed (PI) rebars. Typically, the design of such splices follows provisions originally intended for CI lap splices, despite the differences in execution and bond ...

Effect of Seismic Loading to Prefabricated Connections
Endüstriyel yapıların çoğu prefabrik yapılardır ve yüksek sismik risk altında olan bölgeler üzerine inşa edilmişlerdir. Bu yüzden prefabrik yapılar depreme dayanıklı olmak zorundadır ve bu ancak yapı elemanlarının ve bunların montaj detaylarının uygun olması ile mümkündür.

Abstract The field of reinforced concrete (RC) strengthening continues to evolve as the construction industry seeks cost‐effective and sustainable alternatives to structural replacement. This study, therefore, aimed to comprehensively investigate the pioneering application of steel‐reinforced grout (SRG) for strengthening large‐scale, 3.5‐meter‐long ...

Abstract The preservation of reinforced concrete masterpieces from the 20th century poses a complex challenge. These structures often combine architectural, historical, and technological value, which standard engineering codes and conservation practices are not fully equipped to address. The Erasmus+ REcube project responded to this gap by promoting an

Seismic performance evaluation of a century‐old RC columns for railway's structural concrete
Abstract Since the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 in Japan, reinforced concrete (RC) has been adopted for railway bridge piers, and some of these structures, now over 100 years old, continue to support transportation in the capital city of Tokyo. Evaluating the seismic performance of these few remaining RC structures has become an urgent issue. Because
