Residual strength of corroded reinforced concrete beams.
… is focused on the corrosion of reinforcement in concrete members. However, none addresses the problems associated with the residual strength of reinforced concrete beams exhibiting both main and shear reinforcement corrosion simultaneously. The aim of this research, therefore, was to determine …

Optimum shear strengthening of reinforced concrete beams
External prestressed carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) straps can be used to strengthen shear deficient reinforced concrete (RC) structures. The strengthening system is associated with a number of parameters including the number of straps, strap locations, strap stiffness, and strap prestress. …

Reliability of reinforced concrete beams in torsion
… Standard 318-83 design criteria for torsional reinforced concrete members is evaluated. Advanced first-order, second-moment reliability analysis is used to compute the reliability index. Reinforced concrete beams, subjected to both equilibrium and compatibility torsion, are analyzed. The …

Fatigue Behaviour of CFRP Strengthened Reinforced Concrete Beams
The performance of reinforced concrete (RC) structures, such as bridges in the heavy haul industry, may be severely impacted by fatigue when subjected to repeated cyclic loading. Fatigue not only reduces load carrying capacity and serviceability limit states (SLS), but it can cause structural …

Flexural models of reinforced concrete beams under blast load
… thesis deals with the flexural failure of Reinforced Concrete beams under blast loads. The main aim is firstly to develop dynamic and energy models capable of evaluating the response of R.C. under explosive load. Then a sensitivity analysis is obtained by means of the above mentioned models …

Flexural behaviour of continuously supported FRP reinforced concrete beams.
… reinforcement for continuously supported concrete beams. Two series of simply and continuously supported CFRP and GFRP reinforced concrete beams were tested in flexure. In addition, a continuously supported steel reinforced concrete beam was tested for comparison purposes. The FRP …

Arching action and the ultimate capacity of reinforced concrete beams
… of arching action on the ultimate capacity of reinforced concrete be is presented. In particular, the enhancement in the shear strength of which are longitudinally restrained is studied in detail.<br/><br/>Initially, a new rationally based design method is developed for the prediction of the …

Structural Behaviour of Self Consolidating Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete Beams
… to a combination of moment and shear force, a reinforced concrete (RC) beam with either little or no transverse reinforcement can fail in shear before reaching its full flexural strength. This type of failure is sudden in nature and usually disastrous because it does not give sufficient warning …

Shear Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Beams and Prestressed Concrete Beams
… the last decades, developments in high-strength concrete materials are rapid, but codes of practice still limits the concrete compressive strength in design of concrete structures due to a lack of experimental research data. As an effort to overcome the limitation to the use of high strength …

An investigation into the material behaviour of reinforced concrete beams
An investigation into the material behaviour of reinforced concrete beams is presented. This investigation is divided into two parts. First, the experimental load-deflection tests on eleven under-reinforced two-span- and four slightly over-reinforced simply-supported beams are presented. The finite …
