a parametrik investigation was conducted to study the non-linear behavior of precast and cast-in-place reinforced concrete beam-column connections subjected to tabas seismic forces (1979). the behavior of these types of connections in a four stories structure with respect to strength, ductility , stiffness, and bond deterioration at the joint core are presented and discussed. calculation result...

This research deals with the study and modification of the initial process used by the General Electric Silicones plant to produce a useful material from the hazardous waste it generates. The generation and treatment of the waste is given in a brief overview. Samples taken at various stages in the industrial process were characterized by chemical and physical analyses. Results showed that amorp...

Steel-concrete-steel (SCS) sandwich panels are composed of two steel plates with low thicknesses and high densities and strengths and one thick layer between both plates with low strength and density known as core that is composed of concrete. Cohesive material-epoxy resin or shear connectors are usually used to connect the plates to the concrete core. SCS sandwich composites are being develope...
