Comparison of Compressive Strength, Shear Stress, and Tensile Stress for Load on Column and Load on Foundation Base
Abstract: The structural behavior of reinforced concrete columns and foundation base slabs subjected to axial loading and reactive forces was investigated in this study. The analysis focuses on the effect of upward reactive components generated by concrete resistance in columns and soil pressure beneath foundation bases. Since upward reactions are present in both structural elements, the corresponding lateral loads and resulting stresses were evaluated to verify the adequacy of the proposed …

Abstract: A trigonometric shear deformation theory is used for flexural analysis of thick beams, taking into account transverse shear deformation effect. The theory accounts for cosine distribution of transverse shear strain through the thickness of the beam. The governing differential equations and boundary conditions are obtained by using the principle of virtual work. The general solutions for the transverse displacement and rotation are presented for transversely loaded beams. The solutions for …

Assessment of Deflection for Deck Slab Bridge
Abstract: The deflection of deck slab is found with respect to bending stress and normal stress and compared with its permissible value. Span of the deck slab plays an important role in deflection. As span increases more bending takes place hence we get more deflection against bending stress. Also normal stress increases due to increase in span since more load is involved. Width of deck slab is kept constant and span …

A Study on Stress Block Parameters
Abstract: The compressive stress distribution in concrete, when mathematically modeled, can be defined by characteristic parameters known as stress block parameters. There are three such parameters, namely, shape factor, k1, depth factor, k2, and maximum stress factor, k3. There are various shapes of stress blocks, like parabolic, equivalent rectangular, equivalent triangular, and rectangular-parabolic. Various standard codes have adopted an equivalent rectangular stress block, whereas the Indian code has adopted rectangular-parabolic stress …

Computation of Different Stresses Acting on Cantilever Beam Using Hyperbolic Shear Deformation Theory
Abstract: The shear deformation effects are more significant in the thick beams. The classical beam theory (ETB) is based on Bernoulli-Euler hypothesis and the classical plate theory (CPT) is based on Kirchhoff’s hypothesis. The shear deformation effects are more pronounced in the thick beams when subjected to transverse loads than in the thin beams under same loading condition. These effects are neglected in elementary theory of beam (ETB). In order to …

Liquefaction Behavior of Clean Sand for Various Sample Sizes Using Triaxial Tests
Abstract: A total of 54 isotropically consolidated un-drained triaxial compression tests on various sample sizes were conducted to study the effect of sample size on liquefaction behavior of clean sand. Specimens were prepared using moist placement and dry deposition methods with different initial relative densities and tested for different confining pressures. It was observed that as the sample size increases, deviator stress also increases. Peak value of deviator stress increased as …
