However, in recent years, the actual pipeline configuration requirements have posed challenges in arranging such opening in the plastic hinge region of an RC beam member. To address this issue and propose design guidelines, this work examines the mechanical behavior of nine specimens subjected to cyclic loading. The test results are compared with the design methods suggested in other guidelines and research. Additionally, a set of design guidelines and novel reinforcement methods, utilizing Double-square hoop and U-shaped stirrups, are proposed and compared with traditional reinforcement methods for RC beams with circular openings. Three distinct regions for reinforcing beams with transverse circular openings are proposed based on their distance from the column support. In the first region, extending from three times the opening diameter to one beam depth (1H), the opening is reinforced with two inclined U-shaped stirrups on each side and double-square hoops on both faces. The second region (1H to 2H) utilizes one inclined U-shaped stirrup on each side, along with double-square hoops on both faces. Beyond twice the beam depth (2H) in the third region, the opening is reinforced solely with double-square hoops on both faces. The sets of design methods provide valuable insights for future design considerations.","PeriodicalId":50849,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Structural Engineering","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140930551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Free vibration signals generated by a passage of train are commonly utilized to estimate the modal parameters of railway bridges due to their higher signal-to-noise ratios compared to random vibrations caused by ambient loads. However, since free vibration signals rapidly decay over time, the available free-vibration data is typically short-time. When using the fast Fourier transform-based spectral estimation method for modal identification from short-time vibration data, a phenomenon known as spectral leakage occurs, leading to miss-identification of some structural modes. In this study, the classical frequency domain decomposition (FDD) is improved for modal identification of railway bridges, in which the higher resolution auto-power spectral density (PSD) and cross-PSD functions are calculated through the autoregressive (AR) model-based method. The AR model-based method improves both the smoothness and resolution of the PSD functions compared to the fast Fourier transform technique. These AR model-based PSD functions are then employed in the FDD process to facilitate frequency and mode shape identification while avoiding spurious noise modes. The proposed eigenvalue fitting technique is subsequently utilized to estimate damping ratios. Numerical simulation data as well as vibration data from an actual bridge are analyzed to validate the proposed method, with a comparison made to the Welch’s PSD-based method. The results demonstrate that the modified FDD approach enables more effective identification of structural modes, even in the presence of closely-spaced modes.","PeriodicalId":50849,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Structural Engineering","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140930543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing research mainly focuses on the bearing resistance of circular steel pipes under the condition of eccentricity at one end. In practical application, both ends of CST members also may be eccentric. And with the increase in eccentricity, material yielding may occur prior to flexural buckling. So far, it’s lack of reports about the mechanical behavior of CST members subjected to eccentric loading at both ends and the boundary between material yielding and flexural buckling. This paper presents experimental, numerical and theoretical studies on bearing resistance of thin-walled circular steel tube with slenderness ratio of 30, 40 and 50, subjected to eccentric loading at one end and both ends, respectively. The study reveals a significant discrepancy in the prediction of bearing resistance for circular tubes subjected to eccentric loading at both ends according to existing design codes. Considering the synthesis of bending moment and deflection caused by eccentric loading at both ends, the calculation method of the bearing resistance based on flexural buckling of CST is established, which enhances the prediction accuracy of test verification. In addition, a theoretical boundary between the two failure modes appearing in CST members under eccentric loading at one and both end(s) - flexural buckling and reaching the material yielding strength - was established as dominated by the slenderness ratio and loading eccentricity.","PeriodicalId":50849,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Structural Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140930822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, due to the mechanical defects and insufficient parameters included in the equations available in codes, the literature exhibits a lack of precision in predicting the shear strength of such columns. In this paper, a shear strength equation for the RC column was established based on the truss-arch model theory. On this basis, the effect of corrosion on key parameters such as the cross-sectional area of rebar, yield strength, compressive strength of concrete, and displacement ductility was fully considered to establish the shear strength equation of corroded RC columns. To assess the accuracy and applicability of the proposed equation, a database consisting of 215 specimen parameters was compiled. Comparative analyses were conducted with existing equations from the literature. The results indicate that the mean values and coefficient of variation for the ratio of calculated values to the tested values of the equation were 1.098 and 0.601, respectively, which proves the equation’s high computational accuracy and low dispersion. Consequently, the proposed equation offers a more effective calculation method for predicting and assessing the shear strength of corroded RC columns. This method holds significant potential for enhancing the resilience of structures in seismic-prone regions.","PeriodicalId":50849,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Structural Engineering","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140930473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the service period, they may suffer vehicle impact due to traffic accidents or terrorist attacks. This paper numerically evaluates the performance of CFST columns under vehicle impact and investigates the effects of carbon FRP (CFRP) wrapping arrangements on performance improvement of the columns. Before that, a numerical model was developed to simulate the responses of CFST columns without and with FRP wrapping under vehicle impact and post-impact axial compression, and then calibrated by reported tests. Evaluation results show that the performance of CSFT columns under vehicle impact is divided into five levels, i.e., no repair required, rapid repair required, minor repair needed, major repair needed, and replacement needed. The performance level decreases with the increase in the vehicle weight or speed and increases with the increase in the column diameter or steel tube thickness. The column height has little effects on the performance level. A higher axial load ratio, e.g., 0.5, might reduce the performance level. Besides, a CFST column tends to fail in flexure mode when hit by F800 medium truck, while it may fail in flexure & shear mode when hit by C2500 pickup truck. Investigation results indicate that FRP wrapping with each layer orientation of 90° (i.e., in the longitudinal direction) and 0° (i.e., in the hoop direction) present the best performance improvement for a CFST column possibly undergoing flexure & shear and flexure failure, respectively. The increase of the number of FRP layers effectively improves the performance levels of CFST columns but the excessive demand may be not economical. It is not necessary to employ an FRP wrapping range of 100% for improving the vehicular impact performance level of a CFST column to the expected one.","PeriodicalId":50849,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Structural Engineering","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140888558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experimental results show that the interfacial shear strength between ECC and concrete is significantly enhanced by the implementation of the three interface treatment methods, as opposed to the smooth interface. Among these methods, the anchor bolt connection exhibits the greatest improvement in interfacial bonding performance. Notably, cohesive failure is observed in the anchor bolt connection method, while the other three methods result in adhesive failure, with only the anchor bolt connection method displaying ductile failure behavior. Following a comprehensive review of relevant studies and the outcomes of this experiment, three distinct interface bonding mechanisms were identified and the forces contributing to the bond were analyzed. Results indicated that the interfacial bond strength is notably influenced by the surface roughness. These research findings substantiate the viability of utilizing the anchor bolt connection method, particularly in applications where ductility requirements in the repair layer are essential for structural integrity.","PeriodicalId":50849,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Structural Engineering","volume":"118 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140888973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Currently, there is no guideline in design standards for the slenderness limit of R-UHPC columns. This paper, therefore, attempts to develop a design provision for determining the slenderness limit of R-UHPC columns. Firstly, a numerical analytical model was proposed for predicting the load-deflection of R-UHPC columns under eccentric loading, which was validated by comparing its predictions with available experimental results from the available literature. Based on the validated model, a parametric study was then conducted to determine the key parameters affecting the slenderness limit of R-UHPC columns. It was found that the slenderness limit corresponding to the 5% strength reduction was sensitive to the ultimate compressive strain of UHPC, the tensile strength of UHPC, and the reinforcement ratio. On this basis, a design equation for the slenderness limit of R-UHPC columns in single curvature was statistically derived. Additionally, the slenderness limit for R-UHPC columns in non-sway frames was also proposed in a convenient form for design procedures.","PeriodicalId":50849,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Structural Engineering","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140810229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The assessment of seismic performance in bridges heavily depends on the nonlinear features of bridge bearings. Therefore, it is essential to simulate the nonlinear mechanical behavior of bridge bearings to attain the required accuracy of seismic analysis. This paper examines the friction features of pot bearings using the Bouc-Wen hysteretic model, based on which a nonlinear model of pot bearings is proposed. The proposed model can rapidly and effectively analyze the nonlinear mechanical behaviors of bridge bearings under horizontal earthquakes by adequately simplifying the mechanical properties of these bearings. The accuracy of the model for horizontal seismic effects analysis is validated using a numerical simulation method. The simulation compares the nonlinear model seismic effects of the bearing with a linear-elastic model that ignores the bearing frictional effects under horizontal seismic action. The results demonstrated that in the proposed nonlinear model, the ratio of the composite bending moment and yield bending moment of the pier bottom section (demand capacity ratio) is lower than that of the linear elastic model, leading to a more accurate analysis of horizontal seismic effects and thus preventing overestimation of seismic consequences.","PeriodicalId":50849,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Structural Engineering","volume":"84 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140614906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
