Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFlexural Behaviors of Damaged Full-Scale Highway Bridge Girder Strengthened by External Post TensionSayan Sirimontree, Jaruek TeerawongProblem statement: Prestressed Concrete (PC) I section girder with Reinforced Concrete (RC) topping slab has been widely applied to long span bridge girders for several years. A bridge girder is subjected to severe conditions caused by an aggressive environment and overloading. A crack can be initiated and propagate when the tensile stress exceeds the tensile strength of concrete due to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2010 · 8,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUncertainty Assessment for the Buckling Analysis of Glass Columns with Random ParametersMohammad Momeni, Chiara BedonLoad-bearing elements composed of glass, as known, are often susceptible to buckling collapse mechanisms. This intrinsic characteristic (and thus potential limitation for design) typically derives from the use of relatively small thicknesses to cover large spans and surfaces, thus resulting in a multitude of columns, beams, or plates that are characterized by high slenderness. In the literature, accordingly, several and … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 22 Dec 2020 · 6,295 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating Seismic Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Columns with SFRP Using Finite Element MethodJalil Khani, Mohsen Bozorg, Seyed Mehdi ZahraiCurrently, various methods have been used for repairing and retrofitting reinforced concrete columns including Steel Fiber Reinforced Polymer (SFRP) jackets in order to improve load bearing capacity. However, the enclosure mechanism is less known by consideration of the effects of slender columns which needs much more studies. Avoiding the buckling of a slender Reinforced Concrete (RC) column against the compressive … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2018 · 8,669 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating the Parameters Influencing the Behavior of Knee Braced Steel StructuresEdris Farokhi, Mehrdad GordiniIn Knee-Braced Frames (KBF), the brace is connected to the knee element rather than the beam-column joint. For reasons such as having sufficient lateral stiffness despite its adequate ductile behavior, the concentration of damage in the Double Knee-Braced structural elements and also ease of repair and replacement of these elements after an earthquake, this bracing system is preferred over conventional … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 21 Sep 2015 · 7,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractShear Strength of Reinforced Concrete Beam Strengthened by Transverse External Post-tensionSayan Sirimontree, Boonsap Witchayangkoon, Nathavudh Khaosri, Jaruek TeerawongProblem statement: Shear failure of concrete beam is brittle manner without warning so inadequate design for shear of beam and/or material deterioration lead to the possibility of sudden failure of beam. The change of functional use and future increased load of structure lead to the need for strengthening of concrete structure. Approach: This research focuses on behaviors under static loading … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,863 accessesView PDFCite
