Reinforced concrete haunched or tapered beams are beams with varying depths along their
span, typically representing the pier cap of bridges. Experimental data on these beams have …

Corrosion is a major cause of deterioration and cracking in reinforced concrete (RC)
members and leads to a significant reduction in their structural capacity and service life. The …

Tapered members are considered important members in structural applications. A thorough
understanding of the shear behavior of these complicated geometrical elements is required …

Experimental and numerical studies on the behavior of composite columns with
prefabricated self-compacting mortar (SCM) stay-in-place (SIP) formwork and post-cast …

An experimental study is presented where eight reinforced concrete beams (two prismatic
and six haunched) previously designed and tested to fail in shear with substantial damage …

The objective of this study is to conduct a finite-element (FE) numerical study to assess the
effect of size on the shear resistance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened in …

The use of externally bonded fiber‐reinforced polymer (EB‐FRP) composites for shear
strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams presents many challenges given the …

The purpose of this paper is to test ten identical reinforced concrete haunched beams
(RCHBs) to determine the effectiveness of pre-cast strain-hardening cementitious composite …

This research introduces an experimental and numerical study of the axial compressive
performance of novel RC composite columns consisting of a pre-fabricated self-compacted …

External strengthening of reinforced concrete haunched beams with and without shear
reinforcement has been investigated by using carbon and basalt fiber reinforced polymer …
