The durability under dynamic loading is crucial for diverse concrete structures, including
buildings subjected to seismic forces as well as hydraulic and floating concrete structures in …

Fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) has gained increasing interest in recent years due to its
superior mechanical properties compared to plain concrete. The failure of it is a process in …

The use of fibers as mass reinforcement to delay cracking and to improve the strength and
the post-cracking performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams has been well …

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of using ultra-ductile Engineered Cementitous
Composites (ECC) as a means to enhance the performance of beam–column connections …

This paper investigates the effects of engineered cementitious composite (ECC) on the
behavior of RC exterior beam–column joint under reversed cyclic loading. The main …

Reinforced concrete (RC) beams under cyclic loading usually suffer from reduced aggregate
interlock and eventually weakened concrete compression zone due to severe cracking and …

Brittle shear failure of beam-column joints, especially during seismic events poses a
significant threat to structural integrity. This study investigates the potential of steel fiber …

In the rigid-famed railway bridges, due to extensive amount of transverse reinforcements in
the joint connections, the over congestion at the connection brings the difficulties in …

The behavior of reinforced concrete external beam-column joint is highly stochastic and
nonlinear due to the incorporation of several dimensional and concrete properties. Hence …

High performance concrete (HPC) is a quite novel material which has been rapidly
developed in the last few decades. It exhibits superior mechanical properties and durability …
