Flanged RC walls are frequently utilized to provide strength and stiffness in two horizontal
directions, yet the coupling of the bidirectional horizontal components of ground motion are …

The sensitivity of shear resistance to cyclic ductility demand is not sufficient to allow inverting
the proposed models to estimate the deformation capacity of RC members as controlled by …

The research presented here developed a model for simulating the nonlinear cyclic
response of flexure-controlled concrete walls, which meets the dual objectives of accuracy …

The squat flanged reinforced concrete (RC) walls have been widely utilized in nuclear
power plant and building structures. Nevertheless, the empirical equations in current design …

This paper presents the findings of a recent reconnaissance survey of the reinforced
concrete (RC) construction industry in Australia. The survey involved the review of the …

This study describes a nonlinear truss modeling approach for reinforced concrete (RC) walls
or, in general, for plane stress RC elements subjected to cyclic reversals. Nonlinear vertical …

Abstract Machine learning (ML) has been recognized by researchers in the architecture,
engineering, and construction (AEC) industry but undermined in practice by (i) complex …

Peak shear strength estimation of RC shear walls is one of the influential parameters on the
design of RC shear walls. Considering all models and equations provided by researchers …

Reinforced concrete walls with a ratio of height to length of less than two are important
structural components in many commercial buildings and nearly all safety-related nuclear …

In this study the authors investigated experimentally the behaviour of prefabricated
reinforced concrete sandwich panels (RCSPs) under simulated seismic loading through a …
