Diagonal Tension Testing of Interlocking Compressed Earth Block Panels
<p>This thesis examines the use of diagonal tension (shear) testing to determine factors affecting shear strength of Interlocking Compressed Earth Block (ICEB) panels. This work expands on the current information available about strength properties of ICEB assemblies, which are dry-stacked, as …

Mixed mode fracture of concrete
… static mixed mode I and II fracture aspects of diagonal tension failure in reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete members were studied using a hybrid experimental-numerical analysis.

Influencia de las solicitaciones axiles de tracción en la resistencia a cortante de las viguetas de forjado sin armadura transversal
… del modelo de la Teoría Modificada del Campo de Tensiones para estos elementos lineales sin armadura transversal sometidos previamente a solicitaciones axiles. Asimismo, se ha propuesto una nueva formulación sobre la estimación de la capacidad a esfuerzo cortante por tracción en el alma para …

Structural Behaviour of Self Consolidating Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete Beams
… Concrete is very weak and brittle in tension, SFRC transforms this behaviour and improves the diagonal tension capacity of concrete and thus can result in significant enhancements in shear capacity. However, one of the drawbacks associated with SFRC is that the addition of fibers to a …

Inelastic web crushing performance limits of high-strength-concrete structural walls
… and the webs becomes thinner. Web crushing, or diagonal compression failure, manifests itself as compression failure of concrete struts formed by diagonal tension cracking in the wall web. The failure is brittle in nature and therefore, it is mandated to be suppressed for design in seismic …

Behavior and large-scale experimental testing of Steel Plate Shear Walls with Coupling
… with Coupling (SPSW-WC) configuration is an extension of the conventional Steel Plate Shear Wall (SPSW) seismic lateral force resisting system. The SPSW system is composed of a steel frame with web plates between the beams and columns. In North America, the web plates of the SPSW are typically …

Analysis and Design of Fiber Reinforced Polymer Retrofit of Reinforced Concrete Diaphragms
… shear resistance: directly, by bridging diagonal tension cracks, and indirectly, by improving the concrete constitutive behavior through enhanced tension-stiffening of diagonal compression struts, thus delaying concrete crushing and significantly increasing overall shear capacity. The …
