Assessment of shear reinforcement enhancement on the punching shear capacity of flat concrete slabs with openings

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Reinforced concrete flat slabs are widely employed in contemporary architecture due to their structural efficiency and construction simplicity; however, their susceptibility to punching shear failure remains a critical design concern, particularly at slab–column connections where concentrated loads occur.

CLASS, PROPERTY RIGHTS AND CITIZENSHIP: Affluent Informal Settlements and the Cultural Production of Property in Delhi

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent scholarship has examined the informal activities of elites. While existing theories suggest that informality is a realm where the state guarantees unhindered access to land and property rights and, subsequently, citizenship entitlements for elites, they have yet to explain how affluent residents of informal colonies obtain citizenship ...

Experimental Study for Shear Behavior of Hybrid Self-Compacting Concrete Beams

Journal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2013
This paper discusses shear behavior of hybrid reinforced concrete beams that consist of two different concrete layers: the tension layer is made of normal strength concrete with compressive strength of 25 MPa and the compression layer is made of self ...

AUGURAL TERRITORIES: On the Prophetic Organizing of the Mid‐range

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article I introduce the concept of augural territories to theorize the urbanism that emerged during pandemic lockdowns. I draw on ethnographic research in Madrid to examine how community‐based responses—including mutual aid networks, food pantries and neighbourhood associations—disrupted the spatial and temporal logics of territorial ...

Between Sustainable Development, Financialisation and Sovereign Debt Crisis: The Case of Blue Finance as Yet Another Iteration of the Washington Consensus

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As far as international economic law (IEL) is concerned, the ‘Washington Consensus’ generally refers to the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF)'s development finance policies and tools. It covers their application to their clients and borrowers with the support of Western governments. This acceptation is of particular interest

Global State of Play for Extended Sustainability Disclosures, Performance, and Assurance—Insights From Cross‐Country Benchmarking

Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We compile a novel set of country benchmark sub‐samples representing advanced, emerging, large, and APAC countries to understand the impact of country‐ and company‐specific governance factors on ESG scores worldwide. We find that companies in advanced and large countries demonstrate the highest mean performance and the lowest greenwashing ...
