Macro-mechanical strut and tie model for analysis of fibrous high-strength concrete corbels

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2012
Reinforced concrete (RC) corbels becoming a frequent attribute in the building construction with the increasing use of pre-cast high-strength concrete (HSC).

The influence of secondary reinforcement on a strut‐and‐tie model for the design of reinforced concrete corbels

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract In precast concrete structures, optimizing the design of corbels by considering the contributions of secondary reinforcement elements can significantly improve construction economy, especially when corbels are repeated multiple times. This paper proposes a strut‐and‐tie model for reinforced concrete corbels subjected to vertical and/or ...

Punching shear behavior of thick reinforced concrete slabs according to Strut-and-Tie model

open access: yesBudownictwo i Architektura, 2014
The punching shear behavior of thick reinforced concrete slabs was analyzed in this paper by using strut-and-tie model (S-T). Calculating procedures were compared to our own experimental test results.

Evaluating structural resistance and updating modeling uncertainties through testing

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The aging of infrastructure necessitates a robust and rational methodology for the assessment of existing structures. Design codes provide general models which cover different design scenarios and are thus overly conservative. Also, such design approaches lack field data and, if applied directly to existing works, often lead to unnecessarily ...

Reinforced concrete corbels strengthened with external prestressing

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2019
Reinforced concrete structures may demand, throughout their lifetime, the increase of the capacity load due to eventual changes in the load configuration. In this context, corbels could be considered structural elements which present great challenges for

Localized tension characterization of reinforced concrete flexural members using surface bonded distributed fiber optic sensors

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Structural monitoring and assessment can be used to ensure the long‐term performance of structures and inform when maintenance is required by accounting for the degradation of material properties. A key force‐resisting mechanism in reinforced concrete that must be considered as part of an assessment and that can degrade over time is tension ...

Equal before time: on the sensory suspension of accumulated time in Sichuan, China Égaux devant le temps : suspension sensorielle du temps accumulé au Sichuan (Chine)

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Food and alcohol indulgence, along with tea‐drinking, gambling, and gossip, are integral to a characteristically Sichuanese ethos of ‘life enjoyment’ (xiangshou shenghuo). Beyond mere pleasure, sensory, ludic, and comic experiences temporarily strip participants of both their formal and subjective qualities.

Behavior of self-compact reinforced concrete deep beams with small shear span to depth ratio

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
This research is devoted to investigate the experimental and theoretical behavior of deep beams under monotonic two points loading. An experimental program examining six RC deep beams is carried out.

Staging friendship: towards an anthropology of everyday geopolitics in South Asia L'amitié mise en scène : vers une anthropologie de la géopolitique du quotidien en Asie du Sud

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article studies Indian‐Bangladeshi friendship ethnographically, as a contested political imaginary, claim, and relation, from the vantage of its shared borderlands. Staging friendship, I show, is a geopolitical project that engages equally the highest echelons of the Indian and Bangladeshi states and ordinary residents of its marginalized ...

Strut-and-Tie Modeling of Reinforced Concrete Deep Beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Strut-and-tie models (STMs) are often used for the design of shear critical deep members because they can rationalize the shear transfer within discontinuous or disturbed regions in reinforced concrete structural elements.
