Bond between reinforcing bars and concrete plays an important role in controlling the
structural performance of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. The main objective of this …

Textile reinforced concrete (TRC) is a novel composite building material, its structural
behavior is substantially influenced by the bond interface between the reinforcing textile …

Modeling of reinforced concrete (RC) and concrete filled steel tube (CFST) sections is
complex, because the model must be capable of capturing degradation of the concrete …

Structural deterioration during fire leads to significant economic losses, severe injuries, and
deaths. Research to accurately estimate the impact of fire on structural security and …

A nonlinear finite element analysis of steel fibre-reinforced concrete beams subjected to
static loading was explored using ADINA software. A predefined 3D model of concrete beam …

Finite-element (FE) modeling of RC structures under combined loading has received
considerable attention in recent years. However, the combination of torsion and axial …

In modular construction, the optimization of joint design has always been a major challenge.
The joint size is primarily governed by rebar-concrete bond strength, as tensile stress is …

Externally bonded (EB) reinforcement and near surface–mounted (NSM) reinforcement were
extensively studied to strengthen reinforced concrete beams in the last decades. However …

The development of modular construction is surging in recent years. It has been popularized
worldwide due to better quality control, environmental-friendliness and potential construction …

Bar diameter is one of the basic factors affecting bond behavior, which is still of interest due
to opposing opinions regarding its effect on bond behavior in the pull-out test. This paper …
