Evaluation of Reinforced Concrete Columns under Biaxial Bending

PREDICTION OF BIAXIAL BENDING BEHAVIOR OF STEEL-CONCRETE COMPOSITE BEAM-COLUMNS BY ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK

In this study, the complex behavior of steel encased reinforced concrete (SRC) composite beam–columns in biaxial bending is predicted by multilayer perceptron neural network. For this purpose, the previously proposed nonlinear analysis model, mixed beam-column formulation, is verified with biaxial bending test results. Then a large set of benchmark frames is provided and P-Mx-My triaxial ...

Damage Detection of Carbon Fiber-reinforced Concrete Under Bending Test

Rehabilitation of Reinforced Concrete Columns

In recent years, rehabilitation has been the subject of extensive research due to increased spending on building work and repair of built works. In all cases, it is absolutely essential to carry out methods of strengthening or repair of structural elements, and that following an inspection analysis and methodology of a correct diagnosis. The reinforced concrete columns are important elements in...

Seismic Response of Reinforced Concrete Columns

There are a large number of reinforced concrete buildings in seismically active areas of the world that are not built in accordance with modern seismic design provisions such as those published by American Concrete Institution ([ACI] Committee 318, 2008). In the United States and other parts of the developed world, these buildings were constructed between 1930s to mid 1970s according to the bui...

Reinforced Concrete Columns in Torsion (RESEARCH NOTE).

ACT does not suggest any regulations for columns under torsion. However, by all means, the number of such columns used in steel and concrete structures is abundant. In this paper, using the results of laboratory tests on 35 square and rectangular columns with intermediate slender ratios, relations for determination of torsional strengths of reinforced concrete under axial compression have been ...
