Abnormal events, that are unforeseeable low-probability and high-impact events, cause
local failure (s) to structures that can lead to the collapse of other members and, eventually …

In this paper, the effects of steam curing conditions on concrete properties and
microstructural characteristics are reviewed, and technical approaches such as appropriate …

To meet the growing need for resilient structures in seismic and high-impact zones, accurate
prediction of the response of reinforced concrete (RC) beams under impact loads is …

This study presents the experimental and numerical investigations on the impact resistance
of precast reinforced concrete (RC) barriers with grouted sleeve and steel angle-to-plate …

There is a growing public interest in exploring materials that can enhance the sustainability
and durability of conventional steel reinforced concrete (RC) structures, such as geopolymer …

In order to enhance on-site assembly efficiency and construction organization flexibility, a
new type of local post-tensioned dry-wet mixed precast concrete beam-column connection …

Impact loads often act on columns end during accidents such as vehicle impacts and
terrorist attacks. The resulting deformations lead to a redistribution of internal forces in the …

This study investigated dynamic performances of concrete beam-column joints under
various impact loading scenarios including impact contact condition (ie, impact directly or via …

A progressive collapse of structures is usually triggered by extreme incidents, especially
explosions and impacts, resulting in a dynamic response that differs from the conventional …

Precast pile technology is gaining popularity in the construction industry, particularly for
deep foundation pits (DFPs). However, challenges persist in achieving optimal force …
