Abstract: Abstract The strong column-weak beam hierarchy, which is now widely accepted in the design of reinforced concrete (RC) frames to achieve good seismic performance, is violated in many existing RC frames designed according to inadequate… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The beam opening (BO) technique, which involves (1) the creation of a web opening in the beam to weaken its flexural capacity and (2) the fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) shear strengthening around the opening to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/13467581.2025.2455041
Abstract: ABSTRACT The sudden loss of columns due to abnormal loads demonstrates a remarkable example of a localized failure that might ultimately result in the progressive collapse of the complete steel-framed structures. In this study, finite… read more here.
