Performance of two‐to‐one non‐contact post‐installed lap splices

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
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 ...

On the behavior of flat slabs with asymmetric openings near columns: A hypothesis based on numerical simulations and design code‐based analytical models

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several design codes prescribe punching shear verification in flat slabs, especially for common scenarios such as concentric punching and punching under bending moments. Although openings are generally addressed in design codes, asymmetric openings are often neglected.

Influence of steel reinforced grout configuration, and reinforcement ratio on the flexural performance of strengthened continuous RC beams

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
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 ...

Experimental investigation of reinforced concrete members subjected to reversed cyclic axial loading

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents an experimental campaign of five reinforced concrete members subjected to cyclic axial loading alternating between tension and compression. Fiber optical sensors and digital image correlation, in combination with automated crack detection and measurement, were used to investigate, among other aspects, the development of ...

Nonlinear analysis of flat post‐tensioned concrete slab–edge column connections

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents nonlinear finite element analyses to investigate the punching shear behavior of unbonded post‐tensioned concrete flat slabs at slab‐edge column connections. A parametric analysis was conducted to evaluate the influence of four critical parameters on the punching shear resistance: the distribution of prestressing tendons ...
