DOI: 10.1007/s10518-019-00770-6
Abstract: Corrosion of transverse reinforcement can lead to significant shear capacity deterioration resulting in a ductile-designed reinforced concrete (RC) column to potentially fail in a shear manner. Increased risk of shear failure can be more significant… read more here.
