This study introduces a novel methodology based on the Global Resistance Format (GRF)
for evaluating the design value of the global structural resistance of reinforced concrete (RC) …

The study was devoted to the numerical modelling of concrete-to-concrete interfaces. Such
an interface can be found in many modern composite structures, so proper characterisation …

This research discusses the performance of engineered cementitious composite (ECC)
beams with and without transverse reinforcements using thorough analytical and finite …

The study is focused on the comparison and discussion of different approaches within the
use of the global resistance method (GRM) for safety assessment of reinforced concrete …

In this paper, an investigation on the behaviour of RC beams with circular openings in the
flexural zone and shear zone strengthened using steel plates is presented. Totally seven …

This paper investigates the behaviour of a reinforced concrete beam under a support
removal. A detailed parametric analysis is carried out, covering the effect of support removal …

In the mechanics of concrete constructions, one distinguishes between residual and elastic
strains. Cyclic loadings evoke changes mainly in the elastic strains; however, the total …

In professional practice, the design and verification of Reinforced Concrete (RC) and
Prestressed Reinforced Concrete (PRC) structures are performed using a simplified …

Structural members' durability and strength depend on the member's fire resistance. This
study simulates the structural response of a reinforced concrete beam with a construction …

In this paper, an investigation on the behaviour of RC beams with circular openings in the
flexural zone and shear zone strengthened using steel plates is presented. Totally seven …
