The results of an experimental program on upgrading of reinforced concrete slab-column connections subjected to monotonic shear and unbalanced moment transfer are presented in this study. Externally installed carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) stirrups acting as shear reinforcement around the slab-column connection area were used with two patterns of CFRP arrangements. It was found that the proposed method resulted in punching shear capacity increases up to 60% relative to the specimen without any strengthening. In some cases punching shear failure was eliminated with the use of CFRPs as shear reinforcement. Capacities of test specimens were evaluated using punching shear strength provisions of ACI 318-02 and yield line analyses for the test specimens. On the basis of the results of this study. use of CFRPs as externally installed stirrups was found to be successful in strengthening slab-column connections.

Lifetime Performance Analysis of Existing Reinforced Concrete Bridges. I: Theory Akgül, Ferhat (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2005-06-01) In this first part of a two-part paper, a general methodology for lifetime performance analysis of existing reinforced concrete bridges is presented. The framework for the methodology is established by identifying four distinct categories: limit state equations, random variables, deterministic parameters, and constant coefficients. The limit state equations are derived by strictly adhering to the load and capacity formulas and requirements set forth in AASHTO specifications. Generality is pursued by establi...
Predicting the shear strength of reinforced concrete beams using artificial neural networks Mansour, MY; Dicleli, Murat; Lee, JY; Zhang, J (Elsevier BV, 2004-05-01) The application of artificial neural networks (ANNs) to predict the ultimate shear strengths of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with transverse reinforcements is investigated in this paper. An ANN model is built, trained and tested using the available test data of 176 RC beams collected from the technical literature. The data used in the ANN model are arranged in a format of nine input parameters that cover the cylinder concrete compressive strength, yield strength of the longitudinal and transverse reinforc...
Performance of a precast concrete beam-to-beam connection subject to reversed cyclic loading Korkmaz, HH; Tankut, T (Elsevier BV, 2005-08-01) This study was performed as one phase of an extensive research program focusing on the seismic behaviour of precast connections carried out in Middle East Technical University. The primary objective of the research program was to observe and investigate the seismic behaviour of the connection detail proposed by the collaborating company and the specimens with improved details, in order to develop a 11 moment resisting precast concrete beam-to-beam connection". In this study, six beam-beam connection subasse...
Strength and stiffness of floor trusses fabricated from cold-formed steel lipped channels Dizdar, Cagan; Baran, Eray; Topkaya, Cem (Elsevier BV, 2019-02-15) This paper reports findings of an experimental study on floor trusses fabricated from cold-formed steel lipped channel sections. In design, the members of these trusses are generally considered as pin-ended and their capacities are assessed under pure compressive and tensile loads by making use of commonly accepted design specifications. Seventeen full-scale floor trusses were experimentally investigated through four point bending tests. Thickness of lipped channels, number of connection fasteners, and type...
Live load distribution equations for integral bridge substructures Erhan, Semih; Dicleli, Murat (Elsevier BV, 2009-05-01) In this study, live load distribution equations (LLDEs) for integral bridge (IB) substructures are developed. For this purpose, numerous 3-D and corresponding 2-D structural models of typical IBs are built and analyzed under AASHTO live load. In the analyses, the effect of various superstructure and substructure properties such as span length, girder spacing, girder stiffness, abutment height, pile size, pile spacing and foundation soil stiffness are considered. The results from the 2-D and 3-D analyses are...
