Strengthening of brick infilled rc frames with cfrp reinforcement-general principles
Akın, Emre; Özcebe, Güney; Department of Civil Engineering (2011)
There is an excessive demand for the rehabilitation of frame type reinforced concrete (RC) buildings which do not satisfy current earthquake code provisions. Therefore, it is imperative to develop user-friendly seismic strengthening methodologies which do not necessitate the evacuation of building during rehabilitation period. In this study, it was aimed to strengthen the brick infill walls by means of diagonal Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) fabrics and to integrate them with the existing structural...
Modelling effects of insufficient lap splices on a deficient reinforced concrete frame
Lin, Wesley Wei -Chih; Sucuoğlu, Haluk; Binici, Barış; Department of Earthquake Engineering and Engineering Seismology (2013)
In order to reduce seismic risk in vulnerable buildings, buildings identified to be at risk should be assessed and strengthened. Performance evaluation of deficient buildings has become a major concern due to devastating earthquakes in the past. In order to justify new provisions in design and assessment codes, experiments and analyses are inherently necessary. In this thesis study, investigations into the behaviour of two deficient reinforced concrete frames built at Middle East Technical University’s Str...

Implementation of coupled thermal and structural analysis methods for reinforced concrete structures
Albostan, Utku; Kurç, Özgür; Department of Civil Engineering (2013)
Temperature gradient causes volume change (elongation/shortening) in concrete structures. If the movement of the structure is restrained, significant stresses may occur on the structure. These stresses may be so significant that they can cause considerable cracking at structural components of large concrete structures. Thus, during the design of a concrete structure, the actual temperature gradient in the structure should be obtained in order to compute the stress distribution on the structure due to therma...
Nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete frame structures
Çiftçi, Güçlü Koray; Polat, Mustafa Uğur; Department of Civil Engineering (2013)
Reinforced concrete frames display nonlinear behavior both due to its composite nature and the material properties of concrete itself. The yielding of the reinforcement, the non-uniform distribution of aggregates and the development of cracks under loading are the main reasons of nonlinearity. The stiffness of a frame element depends on the combination of the modulus of elasticity and the geometric properties of its section - area and the moment of inertia. In practice, the elastic modulus is assumed to be ...
