In this work, 14 reinforced concrete solid and hollow beams were tested under four-point
bending test to evaluate the flexural behavior of hollow concrete beams. The experimental …

This paper presents experimental results on the torsional behavior of ultra-high performance
concrete (UHPC) beams. Thirteen beam specimens with 300× 300-mm cross section were …

Steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) has obtained attention from researchers and
engineers to be employed in various structural applications to improve concrete structures' …

Corrosion of reinforcement in structural members is the primary cause of deterioration in
reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Due to the irreversible nature of the corrosion process …

Featured Application This study aims to propose an analytical model which can be used by
structural engineers to check and design reinforced concrete flanged beams. Abstract …

According to the current ACI318-19 building code, torsional strength is calculated by
reflecting the effective area of concrete and the properties of torsional reinforcement …

This study studies the torsional capacity of rectangular ultra-high-performance-concrete
(UHPC) beams. Nine UHPC beams were tested under pure torsion load. The failure modes …

The torsional strength of reinforced concrete (RC) members is typically calculated through
the thin-walled tube, space truss analogy. The governing equations are simple equilibrium …

The softened membrane model for torsion (SMMT) was the first rational theory to incorporate
the precracking and postcracking torsional behavior of solid RC members. A series of …

This study presents an experimental investigation of the loading capacity and failure
mechanism of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) beams under pure torsion. Twelve …
