Hybrid Composite Behavior of Concrete-Filled Steel Tube (CFST) Columns: Review of Collapse Mechanisms and Polymer-Based Enhancements
Abstract: Concrete-Filled Steel Tube (CFST) columns are an advanced hybrid composite system where the steel tube's confinement and the concrete core's load capacity work together to improve structural performance. While commonly used in civil engineering, CFSTs can also be understood within the framework of composite materials, similar to polymer- and fiber-reinforced composites, in which interactions between phases determine strength, ductility, and failure modes. This review compiles experimental and numerical research on …

Study of Influence of Corrosion and Cracking on Bond Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Member
Abstract: Reinforced concrete, as composite material has occupied special place in the modern construction of different type of structure. Reinforced concrete is inherently durable and near maintenance free construction material. Service life of reinforced concrete structure can be significantly reduced when the corrosion of reinforcing steel is initiated; the product of corrosion expands and occupies greater volume than original volume of steel, eventually causes cracking of concrete. The composite action of …

Design of Openings and Static and Vibrational Analysis of RCC Cellular Beam
Abstract: In concrete arena, RCC cellular beams have less weight compared to solid beams which in turn reduce the weight of columns and footings. All real physical structures, when subjected to loads or displacements, behave dynamically. In this study, we have performed the static analysis and vibration analysis of a three-dimensional reinforced cement concrete cellular beam. The nodal displacements have been found and the stresses are determined. The principal stresses are …

Study of Diagonal Ties and Metal Plate as a Confining Reinforcement for RCC Short Columns
Abstract: Column is a most important structural member in the structural system. Even after the strong column weak beam theory used in the design of the structural member it has been observed that the many times structure collapsed due to the failure of the column. There are many reasons of the column failure but out of that major reason of the failure is ineffective confinement of the column specimen and uneven …

A Comparative Evaluation of a 13-story G+ Building with a Soft Storey, Using Pushover Analysis, with a Focus on the Impact of Different Placement of Shear Walls
Abstract: Asymmetrical structures with varying degrees of irregularity have proven to be a significant factor in causing collapses, damage to property, and injury during earthquakes. Despite extensive research on asymmetric buildings, there are currently no established guidelines for multi-story structures of this type. A soft storey, also known as a weak storey, is a level in a structure with insufficient rigidity or ductility to sustain earthquake-induced damage Pushover analysis has been …

Study on the Response of Strengthening Strategies for Masonry-Infilled Open Ground Storey Framed Building
Abstract: The strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings with masonry-infill wall and with open ground storey is a very timely and significant topic because of the poor performance against seismic action. The absence of infill walls in the ground storey makes the ground storey less stiff and weaker than the all upper story’s which results in a poor performance against lateral loads. Soft storey mechanism prevails in these cases and …

Structural Assessment of Rigid Pavement Systems Under Heavy Loading Conditions
Abstract: This study presents an analysis of pavement and foundation layer design subjected to heavy vertical loads and upward soil pressure. A total load of 1716 tonnes transmitted from the superstructure is considered acting on the pavement system. Due to upward soil pressure, tensile stresses develop in the foundation layers, requiring adequate thickness of sand and aggregate layers to ensure structural stability. Based on the tensile strength of sand (2 N/mm²), …

Analysis of RC Frames Using Different Bracing Systems in Different Positions and Zones
Abstract: Structures are mainly built to enhance the performance of several activities like recreation, transportation, power generation, etc. They are built to sustain the loads coming on them during their service life by carrying adequate strength and also limit the deformation by possessing enough stiffness. Strength of a structure depends mainly upon the characteristics of material with which it is constructed. Stiffness is dependent upon the cross-sectional and geometrical properties of …

Analysis of Infilled Wall Frame for Evaluation of Multiplication Factor
Abstract: Masonry infilled reinforced concrete (RC) frames are the most common type of structures which is used for multi-storeyed constructions in the developing countries like India, even those theseare located in seismically active regions. Masonry infill walls are frequently used as interior and exterior wall in reinforced concrete (RC)buildings. Infill wall protects the internal of the buildings from the environment hazards. Masonry infills are normally considered as non-structural elements and their …

Effect of Span, Load Intensity, and Beam Geometry on Stress and Deflection Behavior of RCC Beams
Abstract: This study investigates the influence of variations in beam geometry, span, load intensity, and permissible stresses on the structural behavior of reinforced concrete beams. Using classical bending and shear stress formulations, the effects of a 20% increase in key parameters were analytically evaluated. Results indicate that a 20% increase in beam span leads to a proportional 20% increase in beam depth, whereas a 20% increase in beam width or permissible …

Analysis of the Impact of Seabed Earthquakes on Coastal Structures and Foundation Design
Abstract: Earthquakes in the seabed occur with varying magnitudes. Seabed earthquakes cause a rapid rise in water levels, which can lead to flooding and structural damage. Therefore, when designing buildings near the seashore, it is essential to account for the additional load on columns due to water thrust. Earthquakes occurring at the seabed generate intense ground acceleration of varying magnitudes, significantly affecting water levels and inducing destructive flooding along coastal regions. …
