The tensile strength (TS) of concrete is a factor in the design of civil engineering structures.
Traditional methods for assessing concrete TS have notable limitations, leading to the …

An experimental study was performed to examine the effects of polyester geo-grid as a
shear reinforcement bar for corroded and uncorroded reinforced concrete beams. The main …

In aggressive environmental conditions, corrosion of rebars affects the life of RC structures.
Pathways for quick ingress of chloride and water are the pores, voids and cracks in concrete …

Ultimate limit state (ULS) criteria are used to design reinforced concrete beams which give a
ductile behaviour at failure. This means the resisting moment, M t, is less than the resisting …

Structures, especially the ones in the coastal environments are subjected to high
concentrations of chlorides, which would eventually lead to reinforcement corrosion. Due to …

In this research focus with different types of profiled main reinforcement in RCC Beam. In this
research work undertake two different types of reinforced profiles tested, one is parabolic …

The results of an experiment on the corrosion damage of M30 grade RC beams with
manufactured sand (M-sand) are presented in this study. For this experiment, National …

Purpose Performance of the structure depends on design, construction, environment,
utilization and reliability aspects. Other factors can be controlled by adopting proper design …

Concrete and steel are predominantly used materials in construction industry. Rapid
advancements in concrete technology in the past three decades are outmoded every day …

Reinforced concrete beams are ordinarily designed as under reinforced to give ductile
actions alike as the tensile moment of resistance. In coastal climate, reinforcement corrosion …
