... design is a field yet to be explored, Therefore, Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) beam-column joint with steel fibers was modeled and analyzed for cyclic loading. Design/methodology/approach Beam-column joint is the most critical section of a structure under mixed loading such as that during...

...Jakub Šedek; Roman Růžek; Vladislav Oliva Purpose The purpose of this paper is to deal with the FE analysis of strain constraint around the crack tip under cyclic loading and its utilization using crack growth prediction strip yield model (SYM). During cycling, the constraint develops based...

... ) . Corrosion Corroded columns Corroded rebars Cyclic loading Seismic behaviour Note that corrosion affects more intensely the ultimate drift capacity of columns bearing a higher axial load, particularly so in cases with a higher mass loss. Figure 3 (a)–(c) plots the normalized lateral load capacity...
