Reinforced concrete beam-column joints play a key role in transferring gravity and lateral
loads from beam to column. One of the main failures of the RC joints is shear failure due to a …

The use of box columns has been increased due to the rigidity of rigid orthogonal moment
resisting frames. On the other hand, the installation and welding of necessary horizontal …

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has provided an opportunity to assess the reliability and
integrity of civil engineering structures. Damage in the structure reduces the hardness and …

Due to its many advantages, it is highly desirable to use box columns in steel structures.
However, despite the numerous advantages box columns offer, it is always difficult to …

In this study, the seismic performance of the connections between L-shaped columns
composed of concrete-filled steel tubes (L-CFST columns) and H-beams used in high-rise …

Box sections are symmetrical sections and they have high moment of inertia in both
directions, therefore they are good members in tall building structures. For the rigid …

In recent years, damage detection methods have been significantly increased in civil and
mechanical structures. One of the most widely used and relatively new methods of signal …

Damage detection in Concrete-Filled Tubes (CFSTs) and the study of their application in
special structures such as high-rise buildings, towers and bridges are important issues …

This paper presents a new type of joint for connecting steel beams with a concrete‐filled
double‐skin steel tubular (CFDST) column. Four half‐scale specimens of the joint with …

CFT column significantly used in tall building and bridges due to high load bearing capacity.
Considering the importance and position of these types of columns in structural engineering …
