Journal ArticleDOI
Statistical extrapolation of shrinkage data - part i: regression
TL;DR: In this article, a large series of data on carefully controlled shrinkage test of concrete involving groups of large numbers of identical specimens is reported, and the data are used to compare existing shrinkage formulas in ACI, CEB-FIP, and BP models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of hysteresis of reinforced concrete members
TL;DR: In this article, the endochronic theory for inelasticity and failure is used to predict the response of reinforced concrete beams in cyclic bending at large strains, where cross sections are assumed to remain plain and are subdivided in slices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Size Effect on Failure of Bond Splices of Steel Bars in Concrete Beams
TL;DR: In this article, the results of reduced-scale failure tests of simply supported four-point-bend beams of different sizes, containing lapped bond splices of smooth (undeformed) longitudinal reinforcing bars, are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Softening Reversal and Other Effects of a Change in Loading Rate on Fracture of Concrete
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the time dependence of concrete fracture, and particularly the effect of loading rate, and found that the post-peak softening can be reversed to hardening, followed by a second load peak that can be either higher or lower than the previous load peak.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stiffness Method for Curved Box Girders at Initial Stress
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of analysis of the global behavior of long curved or straight single-cell girders with or without initial stress is presented, based on thin-wall beam elements that include the modes of longitudinal warping and of transverse distortion of cross section.
