Fragility analysis of the self-centering prestressed concrete frame with web friction devices

Autogenous Shrinkage of Prestressed Self-Consolidating Concrete

Shrinkage can be critical factor for the design of structural members due to the length changes by the timedependent deformation. Given the high fluidity and different mixture proportions of SCC, the shrinkage of such concrete can differ from those of conventional concrete or HPC of normal consistency. Proper estimate of autogenous shrinkage of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) can provide engi...

Prestressed Concrete Piles

A state of the art presentation on prestressed piling as used throughout the world is discussed in this General Report to the FIP Symposium on Mass-Produced Prestressed Precast Elements in Madrid, Spain, May 1968. Historical information, design data and notes along with manufacturing techniques, installation practices, discussion of problems and failures and a complete bibliography are all cove...

Performance of Self-consolidating Concrete in Prestressed Girders

Ductility of Prestressed and Partially Prestressed Concrete Beam Sections

D analyses of structures responding elastically to ground motions recorded during severe earthquakes have shown that the theoretical response inertia loads are generally significantly greater than the static design lateral loads recommended by codes. Hence, structures designed for the lateral earthquake loads recommended by codes can only survive severe earthquakes if they have sufficient ducti...
