Most of the experimental studies available in literature on the seismic assessment and
retrofit of existing, poorly detailed, reinforced concrete (RC) beam-column joints typical of …

Postearthquake reconnaissance studies show that the beam-column joints of substandard
reinforced concrete buildings (particularly the corner joints) may fail to resist the demanded …

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

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 …

Lack of joint confinement for the majority of pre-1970 reinforced concrete (RC) frame
construction has resulted in weakening the link between the column and the beam and …

Beam–column joints in existing concrete buildings might not satisfy the design requirements
for seismic reinforcement details specified in current seismic design codes. Thus, in this …

Shear failure of exterior beam-column joints is identified as the principal cause of collapse of
many moment-resisting frame buildings during recent earthquakes. Effective and …

The objective of this study was to investigate the seismic behavior of deficient reinforced
concrete exterior beam–column joints constructed with low-strength concrete and plain …

In this paper, efficiency and effectiveness of carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRP) in
upgrading the shear strength and ductility of seismically deficient beam-column joints have …
