Reinforced concrete (RC) beam-column connections especially those without transverse
reinforcement in joint region can exhibit brittle behavior when intensive damage is …

The paper presents a comprehensive review on shear strength provisions of RC beam–
column joint in various national codes viz. ACI 318-2014, NZS 3101-1: 2006, EN 1998-1 …

Premature brittle failures because of seismic actions strongly affect the behavior of existing
reinforced concrete (RC) structural systems. They commonly involve exterior beam-column …

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures that were built prior to the 1970s generally do not meet
current seismic design requirements, especially in terms of reinforcement details. An …

In the performance assessment of typical existing buildings, seismic collapse safety might be
significantly affected by non-linear behavior of joints that are involved in the failure …

Exterior beam-column joints are the most vulnerable part of substandard reinforced concrete
(RC) buildings and are often the first to be damaged during earthquakes. This article …

The seismic performance of existing Reinforced Concrete (RC) frames is significantly
influenced by the behaviour of beam-column intersections, especially in non-conforming …

Beam-column joint is a key part for reinforced concrete (RC) frame building structures under
the impact of severe lateral actions of seismic or wind loading. Prior works indicate that there …

This article investigates the seismic behavior of three full-scale exterior reinforced concrete
(RC) beam-column joints rehabilitated and strengthened with externally bonded carbon fiber …

The introduction of polymers in ordinary cement concrete in order to reduce the Portland
cement consumption is gaining more attraction in the field of civil engineering. However, in …
