Because of this, it holds the potential to enhance the shear capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) beams, if applied properly. This paper presents the general and distinctive properties of SHCC as well as a literature review of topics related to the contribution of SHCC layers to the shear resistance of RC beams with and without shear reinforcement. Based on the analysed results, it is concluded that the main characteristics of SHCC are its microcracking behaviour, high ductility, and increased tensile strength (between 2 and 8 MPa) at large deformations. When used in structural elements, SHCC develops multiple parallel cracks compared to concentrated cracks in conventionally reinforced concrete. The biggest disadvantage of SHCC is its significant drying shrinkage. Although showing high variability, using SHCC as laminates with a thickness of 10 mm improves the shear capacity of hybrid RC beams, but debonding of interfaces in a hybrid system occurs in some cases.","PeriodicalId":40707,"journal":{"name":"Gradevnski Materijiali I Konstrukcije-Building Materials and Structures","volume":"308 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135648870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, it allows certain very important aspects of the mentioned interaction, which are ignored in the usual seismic methods for justified reasons, to be addressed. All this, as well as the fact that this method is still unknown to the professional public and has not been implemented in modern seismic standards, motivated the writing of a paper in which the formulation of the DRM was first presented in detail. Then, the possibilities and approaches to its application in engineering practice were analyzed. In the end, simple dynamic analyses of the seismic interaction of the foundation soil and the pile-supported structure are performed using the DRM, a very specific and insufficiently researched type of seismic soil-structure interaction. Among other things, the results of the performed linear-elastic analyses point to the eventual possibility that the Lateral force seismic method, which is recommended by the Eurocode 8 standard for regular structures and which is most often used in engineering practice, underestimates the level of the lateral seismic load of pile-supported structures. A correct assessment of the seismic load is a fundamental requirement for ensuring a sufficient level of seismic resistance in structures.","PeriodicalId":40707,"journal":{"name":"Gradevnski Materijiali I Konstrukcije-Building Materials and Structures","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135650652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Variable parameters are the height of the model, the intensity of prestressing forces, and the orientation of the membrane material. The research was done on models in specialized software. In order to evaluate the significance of point load effects, membrane forces were compared to those under snow load. The results of the research show the layout of membrane forces under point load and dependence of maximal membrane forces on the varied parameters.

This paper presents an experimental research on bending behaviour of end-notched glulam beams, with and without reinforcement. Screws for timber were used as reinforcement, positioned at angles of 90° and 45° to the longitudinal beam axis. The unreinforced beams failed due to crack opening and its propagation in a brittle manner. Cracks that appeared in the notch details resulted from combined excessive tensile stresses perpendicular to grain and shear stresses. This study shows that reinforcing the beams at the notched ends can improve their load carrying capacity and deformability. However, applied screws did not help the beams achieve ductile failure in bending. The shear failure was dominant failure mechanism for reinforced beams. In addition, analytical calculations were performed in accordance with Eurocode 5 so as to compare the results with experimental research.","PeriodicalId":40707,"journal":{"name":"Gradevnski Materijiali I Konstrukcije-Building Materials and Structures","volume":"36 1","pages":"23-36"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71225457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The selection of trial functions that describe the problem of elastic composite action as well as their influence on the final results were analyzed. For the purposes of numerical analysis, based on the proposed numerical models, several codes are written in MATLAB.

In order to investigate the influence of irregular distribution of masonry infill to the seismic performance of code designed reinforced concrete frames, an extensive nonlinear static and dynamic analysis was performed. Six reinforced concrete frames with different number of storeys, designed as bare frames were analysed. In the phase of assessment, all structures were upgraded with the masonry infill panels in all storeys except the first one.

Sacral objects with wooden features retained common housing elements on one hand and the diversity is reflected in their specific characteristics. It is undoubtedly that natural influences and the human factor on wooden structures require constant monitoring and maintenance, which in the absence of finance and personnel makes it difficult to conserve and restore the traditional sacral wooden structures.

Seismic analyses are generally classified into two (four) groups: Linear Static Analyses (LSA) and Nonlinear Static Analyses (NSA), and Linear Dynamic Analyses (LDA) and Nonlinear Dynamic Analyses (NDA). The analyses of nonlinear seismic structural response were classified separately from the Target Displacement Analyses (TDA) which defines the relationship of the seismic demand and seismic response. On the other hand, classification was also conducted depending on whether a nonlinear response of the system is obtained by the implementation of incremental-iterative procedures or by implementation of semi-iterative and/or semi-incremental procedures. NDA were classified according to the concept of mathematical formulation, i.e. whether they are based on only one dynamic analysis, several dynamic analyses or they are solved in combination with other methods. By implementing the conducted systematization of seismic analyses, one can efficiently consider which type of analysis is optimal for structural analysis and which type of analysis should be taken into account in the phase of preliminary and final analyses in the course of scientific research and professional projects. This paper also presents the aspects of damping modelling in structural analysis through the systematization of damping types and flowcharts, depending on the type of analysis applied: linear and nonlinear, static and dynamic. Damping has been systematized based on the way it was introduced into calculations, i.e. over material damping, link element damping and damping directly introduced into the analyses which are conducted in capacitive, time and frequency domains. In the process of creating numerical structural models, the type of damping and the way of its introduction into structural analysis can be very efficiently selected by applying the flow charts developed. By applying the developed flowcharts, alternative approaches to the introduction of damping into structural analysis can also be defined.","PeriodicalId":40707,"journal":{"name":"Gradevnski Materijiali I Konstrukcije-Building Materials and Structures","volume":"60 1","pages":"3-30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71225690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
