Effects of Internal Force Redistribution on the Limit States of Continuous Beams with GFRP Reinforcement

Applied Sciences, 2020
Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) are commonly used as internal reinforcement in RC structures in aggressive environments. The design of concrete elements reinforced with FRP bars is usually ruled by serviceability criteria rather than the ultimate limit ...

Tensile reliability analysis for gravity dam foundation surface based on FEM and response surface method

Water Science and Engineering, 2010
In this study, the limit state equation for tensile reliability analysis of the foundation surface of a gravity dam was established. The possible crack length was set as the action effect and allowable crack length was set as the resistance in the limit ...
