Beam-column joints constructed in the pre-seismic building code do not provide transverse reinforcement and good detailing within region. These cause occurrence of brittle shear failure, which is one factors affecting number reinforced concrete (RC) moment resistance structures collapsing during an earthquake. Therefore, this study a beam-column joint with non-seismic was designed strengthened ...

Radiometric correction (RC) of the airborne Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) intensity data has been studied in the last few years. The physical model of the RC relies on the use of the laser range equation to convert the intensity values into the spectral reflectance of the reflected objects. A number of recent studies investigated the effects of the LiDAR system parameters (i.e. range, inc...

Reinforced concrete (RC) is the most applied material in modern construction. Research on strengthening RC members has also been widely carried out. Over time, elements might deteriorate due to several factors, such as load, creep, or any other environmental aspects, leading stiffness strength reduction. Following rapid development of studies RC, structure Polymer (FRP) case overcome deteriorat...

This paper demonstrates the size effect on the shear strength of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with stirrups and does so in two separate and independent ways: (1) by fracture mechanics, based on finite-element analysis calibrated by a large beam test; and (2) by purely statistical analysis in which a newly assembled database of 234 tests is filtered to eliminate spurious size effects caused by...
