Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleParametric Study to Maximize the Useful Life of Reinforced Concrete ColumnsTamires L. Mezzomo, Moacir KripkaThe current scenario of structural engineering is guided by the growing ecological concern and constant search for efficient and economic structural solutions. In this sense, aspects related to the durability of structures have become a significant topic of study. Based on this context, the purpose of this work was to provide resources that allow the maximization of the useful life … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 8 Jun 2021 · 6,543 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleOptimization of Reinforced Concrete Beams and Steel Beams: A Comparative StudyJoel M. Ozimboski, Zacarias M.C. Pravia, Moacir KripkaIn order to support the structural designer with regard to the selection of structural materials, this work presents results obtained from the optimization of reinforced concrete beams and welded “I” steel beams. To achieve this objective, both problems were formulated according to Brazilian standards, considering the cost as objective function and section dimensions as design variables. For the optimization of … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 18 Jun 2020 · 6,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEvaluation of Fire Effects on Reinforced Concrete Columns Using Finite Element MethodSajjad Sayyar Roudsari, Taher M. Abu-LebdehIn this paper, four different Reinforced Concrete (RC) columns are analyzed with Finite Element (FE) ABAQUS software and validated experimentally. One of the RC columns, the control specimen, is subjected to only compressive force applied at both ends of the column, while the other three models were loaded under both compressive force and fire load. The temperature is applied to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2019 · 7,599 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleInvestigating 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
Review ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleStudies on Environmental Impact Assessment of Reinforced Concrete in Different Life Cycle PhasesJair Frederico Santoro, Moacir KripkaConcrete is one of most used materials in construction and also one of the main responsible for the emission of carbon dioxide, or CO2, in the atmosphere. Thus, in order to study ways to reduce this impact, it is important to evaluate the influence of each raw material of the reinforced concrete, as well as the phases of the life … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 2 Jan 2018 · 8,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleNumerical Simulation of Flexural-tensile Properties of Reinforced Concrete BeamShi Di, Wang Juan, Liu JianjunReinforced concrete is a kind of typical composite and reinforced concrete structure is widely used in the construction of a kind of structure, the flexural-tensile properties is very important for structure design optimization. In this study, the 2 dimensional numerical model of reinforced concrete beam is established by using ANSYS software and the effects of the thickness of the protective … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2017 · 7,249 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSeismic Design of Masonry and Reinforced Concrete Infilled Frames: A Comprehensive OverviewMarina L. MorettiDespite the extensive research on the seismic behavior of infilled frames since 1960’s, there is no general consensus towards a unified approach. Purpose of this study is to review the existing analytical and experimental research, as well as code provisions, on masonry and on reinforced concrete infilled frames. The basic characteristics of infilled frames and how these affect seismic performance … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2015 · 8,047 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSeismic Assessment of Non-Seismically Designed Reinforced Concrete Frames with Core WallsTaek-Hyun Lee, Ki-Bong Choi, Taher Abu-LebdehThis study examines the seismic performance of four non-seismically designed reinforced concrete structures with core walls and proposes proper rehabilitation methods. The structures were selected based on the height of the structures, occupancy levels and floor plans. The seismic assessment results were compared based on the performance of the structures before rehabilitation and after rehabilitation. The results indicate that most … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 13 Dec 2014 · 6,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleShear 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
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSeismic Performance Evaluation of Reinforced Concrete Moment Resisting Frames with Various Ductility in Low Seismic ZoneN. Choopool, V. BoonyapinyoProblem statement: Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, is at moderate risk for distant earthquake due to the ability of soft soil to amplify ground motion about 3-4 times although it locates in low seismic zone. In addition, before the enforcement of seismic loading for buildings in the Ministerial Law in 2007, many existing reinforced concrete buildings in Bangkok may have … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2011 · 9,493 accessesView PDFCite
