High-strength concrete (HSC) is increasingly used for the construction of tall buildings and
long span bridges. However, most engineers just focus on how to better utilize the strength …

The efficiency of shear walls to sustain the earthquake loads mainly depends on the aspect
ratio, the vertical load, and the ratios of longitudinal and transverse reinforcement. In this …

Experimental results show that concrete shear walls reinforced with a hybrid scheme of steel
and fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars are able to achieve similar strength, stiffness and …

In this paper, a discussion is presented about the impact‐induced damage suffered by
bridge pier columns during rockfall events through model tests and impact force, column top …

Four circular hollow reinforced concrete columns were tested under quasi‐static reversed
lateral loading to investigate their seismic performance. The effects of the wall thickness ratio …

Experimental observations on three reinforced concrete shear walls with small shear span-
to-depth ratio (SDR) under combined high vertical axial load and horizontal cyclic loads are …

During the 2010/2011 Canterbury earthquakes in New Zealand, several lightly reinforced
concrete (RC) walls in multi-storey buildings formed only a limited number of cracks at the …

This paper proposed a method to enhance the energy dissipation capacity of recycled
aggregate concrete (RAC) shear walls reinforced with ultra-high strength bars (UHSB). The …

Shear wall systems are one of the most commonly used lateral‐load resisting systems in
high‐rise buildings. The height–thickness ratio of traditional RC shear wall is more than 8. In …
