Old structures that are made of adobe or brick walls are usually unreinforced and not designed for lateral forces. In-plane loads applied to unreinforced masonry walls (URM) are the usual cause of damage and failure of old buildings. In this research, sm...

The use of prestressed precast hollow core slabs has intensified as technological advances. However, the knowledge of the structural behavior when openings are inserted into this element is still limited, mainly due to the shear force. Therefore, the pre...

In this paper, the negative Poisson?s ratio and rigidity of a protective structure are improved to allow the structure to exert a negative Poisson?s ratio effect in multiple directions and to enhance the structural load-carrying capacity. Therefore, a 3D...

To study the effect of the local corrosion of prestressed steel strands on the shear failure mode and shear bearing capacity of concrete beams, unilateral steel strands in four post-tensioning prestressed concrete (PC) beams are corroded, and the shear t...

The shear failure of a reinforced concrete member is a sudden diagonal tension failure; flexible failure is gradual, associated with significant cracks, and leads to extensive sagging. Therefore, reinforced shear rebars are commonly used to ensure that f...

In this study, the local scour around tripods in random waves is numerically investigated. The seabed-tripod-fluid numerical model with an RNG k-e turbulence model is built and validated. Following that, the scour characteristics and flow velocity distri...

Old masonry buildings, which are frequently part of the cities-built heritage, are vulnerable to seismic actions. Thus, it is important to conduct efficient seismic strengthening interventions that allow maintenance of the existing building to minimize t...

To properly restore masonry cultural heritage sites, the materials used for retrofitting can have a critical effect, and this requires standards for traditional Korean brick and lime mortar to be examined. This study experimentally investigated the mater...

Deteriorated concrete cover, e.g., spalling or delamination, especially when it occurs at the web of a reinforced concrete (RC) beam within the shear span, can reduce the shear capacity of the beam. Patching of this deteriorated area may be the best opti...
