Beam-To-Column Connections for Pultruded FRP Structures
Moment-rotation and strength characteristics of beam-to-column bolted connections of fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) pultruded wide-flange structural shapes are discussed. Results of experimental...
70 Year Performance Record for High Strength Structural Lightweight Concrete
The paper briefly discusses the first ship built using expanded aggregates manufactured in a rotary kiln the USS Selma. It then goes on to discuss achieving high strength concrete with...
Drying and Shrinkage of Concrete: The Case of Massive Parts
The natural drying of concrete induces a number of intense mechanical effects on the structures. These various effects are of importance to engineers: in the design stage (estimate of...
Environmental Degradation of Concrete Pore Structure
This paper illustrates how Conductometric Phase Transition Porosimetry can be used to monitor changes in the pore structure of Portland Cement Concrete which result from repeated freezing...
Size Effect in Concrete Structures and Influence of Loading Rate
The size effect law models the influence of the dimensions of the structure or specimen on the failure stress. This model can be used to quantify the brittleness of failure, and determine...
Fatigue Behavior of Bond-Anchored Unidirectional Glass-FRP's
The contribution reports on the fatigue behavior of fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) bars, consisting of endless E-glass fibers embedded in a polyester (PE) matrix and anchored in a...
Feasibility of Class C FRP Load Transfer Devices for Highway Jointed Concrete Pavements
The objective of this paper is to analyze the feasibility of using corrosion free fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) devices in lieu of steel tie bars in the longitudinal joints of highway...
Bond Strength of Fiber Reinforced Plastic Bars in Concrete
In this study, 27 beam specimens were tested to determine the bond strength of fiber reinforced plastic bars (FRP) in tension. The specimens were reinforced with #4, #6, or #8 FRP bars....
Theoretical Prediction of Temperature Distributions in Airfield Runway Pavements Due to Aircraft Operation
The determination of this transient temperature distribution is important in predicting the thermal effects on pavements due to aircraft operation. In this research, heat exchange at the...
Inelastic Stability of Thin Walled Metal Tubes Under Cyclic Loading Conditions
This paper is concerned with an experimental investigation on the inelastic stability behavior of thin-walled tubular specimens of steel, aluminum and stainless steel, under cyclic loading...
Behavior and Strength of Telescopic Steel Shores
To study the load distribution between concrete floors and shores during construction, the non-linear axial load-shortening behavior of a single post shore must be modeled properly. In...
Significance of Yield Surface Corner-Like Effects in Inelastic Stability Solutions
This paper presents the author's experiences with finite element prediction of the inelastic stability of steel plate structures. The implications of linear versus nonlinear...
Anomalous Structural Size Effect in Cohesive Materials Like Concrete
This contribution analyses on theoretical grounds the size effect trends in special cases where - unlike most experimental situations in fracture research - the specimen is not precracked...
Stresses in Concrete Armor Units
This book is derived from a Seminar at the Waterways Experiment Station, Coastal Engineering Research Center, Vicksburg, Mississippi held on November 7-8, 1989. It presents a state-of-the-art...
Selected Earthquake Engineering Papers of George W. Housner
Sponsored by the Structural Division of ASCE. This volume collects key papers on earthquake engineering by George W. Housner, who more than any other...
