Abstract It is known that design deficiencies in shear design are more dangerous than bending, as shear failures can occur in a fragile way and without possibility of redistributing internal forces.

Editor’s Note: The following is based on “Design for Manufacturing: Punch/Shear Combination Machines,” presented at FABTECH 2025, www.fabtechexpo.com, by Fred Cooke, systems sales manager for Prima ...

Wood’s strength depends on the direction of the grain. The technical term for this variance is “orthotropic,” which means having different strengths in three planes perpendicular to each other. Wood ...

Abstract: In order to study the connection behavior of the perforated plate and the corrugated perforated plate, which are two new types of shear connectors used for steel-concrete composite beams. By ...

Viscous dampers (VDs) are effective and widely used passive devices for the protection of civil structures, provided that appropriate design is carried out. For this purpose, optimal design and ...

ABSTRACT: This paper investigates the design formula for the shear strength at the concrete-to-concrete interface proposed in Eurocode with regard to concrete layers with different strengths. Based ...

ABSTRACT: As part of a research intending to develop steel-concrete hybrid girder using ultra high performance concrete with compressive strength of 80 MPa, this study conducts loading test on this ...

Abstract: Bolted connection under static shear has been widely used in steel structural application, whose design methods are different in different codes. Especially with the development of high ...
