In situ seismic testing of a reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete building

In situ seismic testing of a reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete building Binici, Barış; Gökmen, Furkan; Canbay, Erdem; Eryurtlu, Zafer; Ozdemir, Gulay (2018-10-01) Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) reinforced panels are used to construct easily erected, energy efficient, low-rise prefabricated buildings. This study aims to contribute to the understanding of the seismic response of reinforced-AAC-wall-panel buildings. For this purpose, a full-scale two-story building constructed on a building site by using reinforced AAC panels was tested under two-way cyclic displacement excursions up to near collapse. The test results showed that the test building had a lateral load ...
In Situ Lateral Load Testing of a Two-Story Solid Clay Brick Masonry Building ALDEMİR, ALPER; Binici, Barış; Canbay, Erdem; Yakut, Ahmet (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2018-10-01) The seismic behavior of unreinforced masonry (URM) structures has usually been investigated by conducting laboratory tests. Such efforts, although useful in order to understand the response of single walls or subassemblages, cannot fully mimic the in situ seismic response of masonry buildings. In this study, in situ lateral load testing of a two-story full-scale URM building was conducted. First, forced vibration tests were performed to determine the vibration frequencies of the building. Afterwards, the bu...
In situ 3D monitoring of corrosion on carbon steel and ferritic stainless steel embedded in cement paste Itty, PierreAdrien; Serdar, Marijana; Akgül, Çağla; Parkinson, Dula; MacDowell, Alastair A; Bjegovic, Dubravka; Monteiro, Paulo JM (Elsevier BV, 2014-06-01) In a X-ray microcomputed tomography study, active corrosion was induced by galvanostatically corroding steel embedded in cement paste. The results give insight into corrosion product build up, crack formation, leaching of products into the cracks and voids, and differences in morphology of corrosion attack in the case of carbon steel or stainless steel reinforcement. Carbon steel was homogeneously etched away with a homogeneous layer of corrosion products forming at the steel/cement paste interface. For fer...
In Situ Measurement of Heavy-ion-irradiation-induced Plastic Flow of Amorphous CuTiAg Micropillars Özerinç, Sezer; King, William (2014-02-16)
In Situ Micro-Pillar Compression to Examine Radiation-Induced Hardening Mechanisms of FeCrAl Alloys Cui, Yuchi; Aydoğan Güngör, Eda; Gigax, Jonathan G.; Wang, Yongqiang; Misra, Amit; Maloy, Stuart A.; Li, Nan (Elsevier BV, 2021-01-01) © 2020The effects of 5 MeV Fe2+ ion irradiation at 300°C on the microstructure evolution and deformation behavior of a FeCrAl C26M alloy are presented. It has been found that dislocation loop density increases an order of magnitude from 1 dpa to 16 dpa irradiations, whereas, the dislocation loop size saturates with increasing damage. Micropillars, 600 nm in diameter and 1.3 µm in height, were fabricated and compressed inside grains with , and crystallographic orientations, respectively. {112} has been id...
