Abstract:
Reinforced concrete pipes are exposed to environmental influences during the entire period of their operation. As a result, defects and damage appear and reduce durability and bearing capacity. In this regard, there is a need to repair and strengthen them. In order to assess the effectiveness of strengthening reinforced concrete pipes, it is necessary to get data about deformations that appeared as a result of the loads on the reinforced concrete pipe. The method for conducting experimental studies of the deformed state of reinforced concrete pipes has been developed, and the main devices and

Abstract:
Non-destructive testing (NDT) is seeing increasingly frequent use in civil engineering thanks to the fact that the tests are repeatable and do not cause serious damage to the material. The requirements for the development and modernization of available testing devices and methodologies are ever increasing and the testing of existing structures often requires the use of NDT. Unfortunately, every measurement and methodology has its limits and the measurement devices for the evaluation of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) are no exception. In recent decades there has been an effort to modern

Abstract:
Ultra-high-performance fibre-reinforced concrete has exceptional mechanical properties including high compressive and tensile strength as well as high fracture energy. It has been proved to be much higher blast resistant than normal concrete. In this article, flexural behaviours of ultra-high-performance fibre-reinforced concrete columns were investigated through full-scale tests. Two 200 mm × 200 mm × 2500 mm columns with and without axial loading were investigated under three-point bending tests, and their load–displacement relationships were recorded and the moment curvatures were derived.

Abstract:
Displacement incompatibility between reinforced concrete moment frames and precast flooring systems has been shown experimentally, and in historical earthquakes, to be an area of concern. Plastic hinge formation necessitates beam damage and the resulting elongation of the beam reduces the seating length of the floor, exacerbates the floor damage and induces unanticipated force distributions in the system. In severe cases this can lead to collapse.
 The slotted beam is a detail that protects the integrity of the floor diaphragm, respects the hierarchy of strengths intended by the designer

Research presented in this article is aimed to investigate the ability of ultra-high-performance fibre-reinforced concrete to absorb and dissipate mechanical energy at elevated strain rate loading. Specimens made of ultra-high-performance fibre-reinforced concrete were subjected to the low-velocity impact using the new testing procedure where no fixed supports that hold the sample during the impact were applied. The fibre volume fraction of the ultra-high-performance fibre-reinforced concrete was set as the main test variable in the framework of this study and the volumetric fraction of fibres

Abstract:
Corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete structures is one of the main challenges for the construction industry. FRP reinforcement could be used as alternative to steel reinforcement providing several advantages, such as high resistance to corrosion, high tensile strength and opportunity for developing a more ductile mode of destruction. The last characteristic is extremely beneficial in the aspect of lateral load resisting systems including RC shear walls. The presented modelling results consist of preparing finite element models of reinforced concrete shear walls utilizing Ansys 19.2 - S

Structures designed with reinforced concrete beams are used extensively in construction projects because of their functional and economic features. In this research, tested concrete beams were cast and reinforced with small diameter steel pipes and /or steel bars as flexural reinforcement to study the effect of this configuration of reinforcement on the structural behavior of reinforced concrete beams. The idea of this research involves performing and testing of four reinforced concrete beams reinforced by small diameter steel pipes with different percentages of replacement with traditional st

Each specimen was subjected to two separate explosive loads at a standoff distance of 0.6m, with the aim of investigating the performances of both specimens within both their elastic and plastic response ranges. The first blast (Blast 1) and second blast (Blast 2) consisted of an equivalent TNT charge weight of 0.079kg and 2.09kg respectively. The elasti

Abstract:
The primary long and short term advantages of high strength concrete are, low creep and shrinkage, higher stiffness, higher elastic modulus, higher tensile strength, higher durability (resistance to chemical attacks) and higher shear resistance. In addition, high strength concrete reduces the size of the member, which in turn reduces the form size, concrete volume, construction time, labor costs and dead load. Reducing the dead load reduces the number and size of the beams, columns and foundations. Thus there is a positive impact on reduction of maintenance and repair costs and an increase in
