Abstract This study is carried out to investigate the effectiveness of using externally applied epoxy mortar on joints of masonry wall panels to enhance their load carrying capacity under axial compressive and lateral loads. A total of six 113 mm thick masonry wall panels of size 1200 x 1200 mm were constructed for this study. Four out of six walls were strengthened using locally available CHEMDUR-31 epoxy mortar on joints. The remaining two walls were tested as control specimens. The control and strengthened wall panels were tested under axial compression and lateral loads. In axial compression test, out of plane central deflection and vertical strain at the center of wall panel were recorded while in lateral load test, in-plane lateral displacement of wall and horizontal strain at the center were recorded at each load increment. Failure pattern of each wall panel is also studied to notice its structural behavior. The results of this experimental study showed an increase of 45% and 60% in load carrying capacity under axial compression and lateral bending, respectively by the use of strengthening technique employed in this study.

The post-buckling of stiffened, cross-ply laminated, circular determine the effects of shell lamination scheme and stiffeners on the reduced load-carrying capacity. The effect of geometric imperfection is also included. The analysis is based on the layerwise shell theory of Reddy, and the “smeared stiffener” technique is used to account for the stiffener stiffness. Nu cylinders under uniform axial compression is investigated to merical results for stiffened and unstiffened cylinders are presented, showing that imperfection-sensitivity is strictly related to the number of nearly simultaneous buckling modes.

This paper deals with the behaviour of basalt fibre reinforced polymer (BFRP) composites retrofitted RCC piles subjected to axial compression loads. Currently the awareness of using FRP increases rapidly in engineering fields and also among public. Retrofitting becomes vital for aged and damaged concrete structures, piles, and so forth, to improve its load carrying capacity and to extend the service life. The load carrying capacity of piles retrofitted with basalt unidirectional fabric was studied experimentally. 15 nos. of RCC end bearing pile elements were cast with same reinforcement for axial compression experiment. Three piles were used as conventional elements, another 3 piles were used as double BFRP wrapped pile elements, and remaining 9 piles were used as retrofitted piles with BFRP double wrapping after preloaded to 30%, 60%, and 90% of ultimate load of conventional element. The effects of retrofitting of RCC pile elements were observed and a mathematical prediction was developed for calculation of retrofitting strength. The stress vs. strain relationship curve, load vs. deformation curve, preloaded elements strength losses are tabulated and plotted. Besides, crack patterns of conventional elements and tearing BFRP wrapped elements were also observed. The BFRP wrapped elements and retrofitted elements withstand more axial compressive load than the conventional elements.

The pipe failure tests were performed using 102mm-Sch.80 carbon steel pipe with various simulated local wall thinning defects, in the present study, to investigate the failure behavior of pipe thinned by flow accelerated corrosion (FAC). The failure mode, load carrying capacity, and deformation ability were analyzed from the results of experiments conducted under loading conditions of 4-point bending and internal pressure. A failure mode of pipe with a defect depended on the magnitude of internal pressure and axial thinning length as well as stress type and thinning depth and circumferential angle. Also, the results indicated that the load carrying capacity and deformation ability were depended on stress state in the thinning region and dimensions of thinning defect. With increase in axial length of thinning area, for applying tensile stress to the thinning region, the dependence of load carrying capacity was determined by circumferential thinning angle, and the deformation ability was proportionally increased regardless of the circumferential angle. For applying compressive stress to thinning region, however, the load carrying capacity was decreased with increase in axial length of the thinned area. Also, the effect of internal pressure on failure behavior was characterized by failure mode of thinned pipe, and it promoted crack occurrence and mitigated a local buckling of the thinned area.

Research on the interconnection of widely spaced back-to-back angles has not been conducted. This research was carried out with the aim of developing rules for the design and spacing of interconnectors in such members. Four parameters—the number of interconnectors, the back-to-back spacing between angles, the weld pattern used to connect the interconnectors to the angles, and the thickness of the interconnectors—were studied. The experimental and the theoretical results for the slender double angles confirm that only one interconnector, of practical proportions, is required to make the widely spaced angles act as an integral unit. Both the separation between angles, within reason, and the weld pattern used to connect the interconnectors to the angles had an insignificant effect on the failure load and the failure mode. The thickness of the interconnector did affect the load-carrying capacity of the strut, but only when the thickness of the interconnector was impractically small. The forces and moments in the interconnectors are very small. Key words: angles, back-to-back, buckling, building (codes), columns (structural), design interconnection.
