An efficient non-linear model is developed to estimate the shear strength of the reinforced
concrete (RC) beam-column knee joint subjected to reverse cyclic loading, which produces …

In this study, an analytical model for predicting nonlinear behavior of exterior reinforced
concrete (RC) beam-column joints under varying axial load was developed. The main focus …

In the present day, non-ductile reinforced concrete (RC) members have still appeared in
certain parts of the existing old buildings and bridges. These structures always exhibit shear …

The shear strength of cyclically loaded RC corner joints, resulting in opening and closing
moments, has not been extensively studied. In addition, experimental studies of the joint …

Vertically irregular buildings are vulnerable to earthquake resistance because the lateral
load such as earthquake load is concentrated on a specific floor and a specific member. The …

ABSTRACT Shear failure in Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams is a critical failure mode that
can cause sudden and catastrophic collapse without any prior warning, making it essential …

Reverse cyclic loading is applied to the RC knee joint, which causes the knee joint to
experience either opening or closing moments. To calculate the joint's shear strength, an …

The ductility is an important parameter in the seismic design process of reinforced concrete
structures. Under seismic loadings, ductility is required to allow a significant deformation and …

Sous chargement sismique, certains éléments structurels subissent des sollicitations
combinées (flexion et cisaillement). La ductilité flexionnelle d'un élément en béton armé …

Under seismic loading, some structural elements are subjected to combined solicitations
(bending-shear for isntance). The flexural ductility of a reinforced concrete element reduces …
