BLOCK SHEAR FAILURE IN TENSION MEMBERS
ABSTRACT
Block shear is a limit state that should be accounted for during the design of steel tension members. This failure mechanism combines a tensile failure on one plane and a shear failure on a perpendicular plane. It is important for a design equation not only to predict the capacity reliably, but also to predict accurately the failure mode.
In this study, we begin with an overview of tension members, their behaviour and design strength which is affected by yielding, fracture or ....etc

SEMINAR REPORT ON EVALUATION OF FLOW LIQUEFACTION AND LIQUEFIED SHEAR STRENGTH USING CONE PENETRATION TEST


ABSTRACT

Flow liquefaction is a major design issue for large soil structures such as mine tailings impoundments and earth dams. If a soil is strain softening in undrained shear and, hence, susceptible to flow liquefaction, an estimate of the resulting liquefied shear strength is required for stability analyses. Many procedures have been published for estimating the residual or liquefie ....etc

Abstract

Drained residual shear strength is used for the analysis of slopes containing preexisting shear surfaces. Some recent research suggests that preexisting shear surfaces in prior landslides can gain strength with time. Torsional ring and direct shear tests performed during this study show that th ....etc

INTRODUCTION
Shear walls are vertical elements of the horizontal force resisting system. Shear walls are constructed to counter the effects of lateral load acting on a structure. In residential construction, shear walls are straight external walls that typically form a box which provides all of the lateral support for the building.When shear walls are designed and constructed properly, and they will have the strength and stiffness to resist ....etc

ABSTRACT

Civionics is a new term coiner from Civil-Electronics, which is derived from the application of electronics to civil structures. Only a few years after the invention of low-loss optical fiber, it became apparent that optical fiber can not only reliably transmit data, but also provide remarkable sensing capabilities. These sensing capabili¬ties combined with unique properties offered by optical fibers, such as total dielectric design, complete immunity to electromagnetic interference, small size, capability for distributed s ....etc

Strength based and Displacement Based Design method for steel


Abstract

The performance based seismic design of Steel moment resisting frame structures aimed at controlling the structural damage based on precise estimations of proper response parameters. The primary focus of this study is on the development of a detailed assessment of the inelastic seismic behavior, response, and performance of typical ductile Steel moment resisting frame structures. This research tries to assess the Strength based and Disp ....etc
