Experimental study on strengthening interior beam column joints in reinforced concrete structures using wing walls

The test results validated the feasibility and effectiveness of strengthening interior beam‒column joints via the wing wall installation method. In the design for practical engineering strengthening, it is essential to first assess whether the joints of the existing structure require strengthening. If strengthening is deemed necessary, the extent of reinforcement must be determined; specifically, the […]

A numerical analysis of inclination and rectification of ramp-bridge piers adjacent to surcharge load in soft clay area

Bridge inclination by the surcharge load and rectification by the unloading In the calculation, the inclination of the super and lower structures of the bridge under the action of the surcharge load was first analyzed to evaluate whether the pile foundation in the underground soil was damaged, and which was used to provide a reference […]
