ACI CODE-318-25: Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary is now available in print with updates.

The award encourages and rewards the communication of civil engineering ideas, research and best practice in projects and ...

Researchers have developed a novel reinforcement technique for crushed clay brick lightweight concrete (LWC) beams, employing a rubberized strain-hardening cementitious composite reinforced with glass ...

The kind, arrangement, composition, and strengthening method of the fibres in FRP composites in reinforced concrete beams regulate their total strength. Shear deficient specimens were strengthened by ...

Abstract The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of fiber reinforcement polymer (FRP) on shear behavior of reinforcement concrete (RC) beams with various guidelines. The FRP thickness, ...

The main lateral force resisting system of buildings is shear walls. Reinforced concrete coupling beams usually connect these shear walls. This research summarizes the design procedures of reinforced ...

1 INTRODUCTION The need to overcome larger spans with reinforced concrete elements, without interfering in the architecture design and resist greater loads, generates greater shear stresses in beams ...
