Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRational Mix Design Approach for High Strength Concrete Using Sand with very High Fineness ModulusKwan Wai Hoe, Mahyuddin RamliProblem statement: Production of concrete is always deal with inconsistency. Sources of variation like materials from different geographical basis, mix design method, fineness of aggregates and so on will attribute to different level of achievement of the concrete. Even though researcher had verified that higher fineness modulus of sand would yield better performance for the concrete, but so far there … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,217 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental and Numerical Analysis of Continuously Coupling Timber-Lightweight EPS Concrete Composite SystemNikola Perković, Vlatka Rajčić, Jure BarbalićA composite system based on concrete and timber represents a very successful engineering solution in the process of optimization of construction. Nowadays, by combining different timber products and concrete classes it is easy to achieve improved engineering features for elements in different static systems or load cases. This paper presents an overview of the research initiated by solving the problem … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2021 · 6,433 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractVolume 1: First Steps for SGAMRChiara Bedon, Mario D’Aniello, Flavio StochinoSummer 2017 is approaching when the International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research starts to walk and the “Volume 1” contains its first outcomes (Bedon et al., 2017). It is worth of interest that the attention of the contributors is on glass…. but not only,… and this represents a promising step for the journal growth and evolution. In … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 28 Aug 2020 · 6,331 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Torsion on Externally Prestressed Segmental Concrete Bridge with Shear KeyM. A. Algorafi, A. A.A. Ali, M. S. Jaafar et al.Externally Prestressed Segmental (EPS) concrete box sections are widely used in the construction of bridge structures today. EPS concept has become an attractive tool for rehabilitation and strengthening of existing bridges which have insufficient strength and/or excessive deflection and cracking. Problem statement: EPS bridges are affected by combined stresses (bending, shear, normal, and torsional) at the joint interface between the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,428 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEquivalent Torsional-Warping Stiffness of Cores with Thin-Walled Open Cross-Section Using the Vlasov Torsion TheoryTriantafyllos Konstantinos MakariosIn order to calculate the equivalent torsional-warping stiffness of the Reinforced Concrete (RC) cores that have thin-walled open cross-section, a new analytical methodology, which combines the Vlasov torsion theory with the Bernoulli bending theory, is presented herein. As the basis of the calculations, we use the principal elastic reference system of the core from this we consider that is known. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 23 May 2023 · 6,401 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordReliability of Axially Loaded Fiber-Reinforced-Polymer Confined Reinforced Concrete Circular ColumnsVenkatarman Nagaradjane, Pulipaka Narasimharao Raghunath, Kannan SugunaMonte-Carlo simulation based procedure was applied for assessing the reliability of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) confined reinforced concrete columns. Assessment of reliability provides a quantitative measure of effectiveness of repair. Problem Statement: The procedure presented in the paper could be used for assessing the reliability of reinforced concrete columns before and after the application of FRP wrap, thus helping to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,974 accessesView PDF Cite
