Reinforced concrete shell structures have been widely used in a variety of modern
engineering applications. It is found from earthquake reconnaissance that reinforced …

In this paper, Part 1, five full-scale prestressed concrete I-beams were tested to study the
effect of three variables: the shear spandepth ratio (a/d), the transverse steel ratio (ρ< sub> …

Six full-scale prestressed concrete (PC) I-beams with steel fibers were tested to failure in this
work. Beams were cast without any traditional transverse steel reinforcement. The main …

The seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) bridge columns is a significant issue
because the interaction of flexural ductility and shear capacity of such columns with varied …

In the previous Part 1 paper, an accurate, yet simple, equation for the shear strengths of
prestressed concrete beams was developed. This new equation is a function of the shear …

This paper developed an analytical software, called Simulation of Concrete Structures
(SCS), which is used for numerical analysis of shear-critical prestressed steel fiber concrete …

Reinforced and prestressed concrete (RC and PC) bridge girders are crucial to the safety
and serviceability of structures subjected to shear. The past three decades have seen a …

Eight full-scale Prestressed Concrete I-beams were tested to study the effects of steel fibers
on shear strength and ductility of beams. Two beams were cast with regular transverse steel …

In traditional prestressed concrete beams, longitudinal prestressed tendons serve to resist
bending moment and transverse mild steel bars (or stirrups) are used to carry shear forces …

Abstract Steel Plate Concrete (SC) composite members have been widely adopted because
of its cost-efficiency and enhanced structural behavior. While researchers have attempted to …
