The test results compared with those determined based on the state of the member without axial force according to ACI 318-14, the comparative scope are revealed the reasonable conservative of ACI 318 when dealing with shear strength. Finite element analysis is considered to highlight stress ...
Now with 318-14, start out with Chapter 5 and 6 for analysis, then go to chapter 9 for beams. Chapter 9 in turn points you Chapter 21 to get phi, Chapter 22 to get the particulars of the stress block and the shear strength of the concrete, and the shear strength of reinforcing. Th...
Reinforced concrete shear walls represent a structurally efficient solution to stiffen a building structural system under lateral loads. The main function of a shear wall is to increase the rigidity and strength of the building for lateral resistance. Shear walls have very high in-plane stiffness and...
equations for shear strength of RC elements included in different codes are empirical, they were initially derived on the basis of a number of experimental data with which they showed a good correlation, for example, EC- 2 [2] is based on Zsutty [3], and ACI 318-14 [4] is based on...
Test variables were different levels of GGBFS and FA as cement substitute in the SCC mixture and shear reinforcement ratio. Lastly, the experimental shear strength of test specimens was compared with those predicted from five different international design codes, such as, ECP-203, ACI 318-2014, ...
Even though the spacing of shear reinforcement exceeds the spacing limit recommended by current design codes (ACI 318-14), shear strength of UHPFRC beam was noticeably greater than current design codes. Therefore, the spacing limit of 0.75d can be allowed for UHPFRC beams....
2 opening array showed the highest shear strength. From the test results, the shear strength increased as the strip-width-to-strip-spacing ratio increased. Also, we used the experimental results to evaluate whether the shear strength equations of ACI 318-14 and ACI 440.1R can be applied to ...
strength and serviceability; flexural and axial loads; shear and torsion; development and splices of reinforcement; slab systems; walls; footings; precast concrete; composite flexural members; prestressed concrete; shells and folded plate members; strength evaluation of existing structures; provisions for...
Ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) has been typically used as grout material in the bridge connections or as a repairing material in the bridge deck applications due to outstanding mechanical properties, especially, superior bond strength with precast concrete. However, shear stresses due to mechan...
As the most commonly applied specification for concrete engineering design in Taiwan, ACI 318-14 (ACI 2014) sets an upper bound of 420 MPa on the yield strength of reinforcing steel bars. Owing to the high strength of concrete and reinforcing steel, the mechanical behavior of HSRC structural ...
