Edge Punching Shear of Waffle Slab with Moment Transfer Perpendicular to Slab’s Free Edge
Abstract This paper presents test results of six one-tenth-scale micro-concrete waffle slabs subjected to edge punching shear in the presence of moment transfer perpendicular to the slab’s free edge. Although the observed punching failure mechanism of a waffle slab...
Continuous Reinforceoncrete d CBeams with Various Carbon FRP under Soil Settlement
Abstract This paper presents the behavior of two-span continuous reinforced concrete beams strengthened with carbon-fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites subjected to differential settlement. Two types of strengthening schemes are employed (externally bonded [EB]...
Cyclic Crack-Slip Model for Smeared Rotating Crack Formulations
Abstract An analytical model describing crack-slip behavior, compatible with smeared crack models and suited for the finite element analysis of reinforced concrete specimens subjected to reversed cyclic loading conditions, is presented. The procedure, largely based on...
