Design And Finite Element Analysis Of RCC And Timber-Composite RCC Columns with Seismic Effect
Abstract: This study presents the design and finite-element analysis (FEM) of three reinforced cement concrete (RCC) column configurations under seismic effect, with the objective of quantifying how a central Sal-timber core alters the structural performance of an otherwise conventional RCC column. All three columns are of identical external size (300 × 300 mm) and clear height 3.0 m, fixed at both ends, and use M30 concrete, Fe500 steel, 4–16 mm φ …

Evaluation of Deformation Behavior of a Structural Pipe Bracket Under Static Loading Using Finite-Element Analysis
Abstract: This study presents a comprehensive structural integrity assessment and comparative static response analysis of an industrial support bracket subjected to varying mechanical loading conditions using the finite element method (FEM). Industrial brackets are essential load-bearing components in mechanical and structural systems, where adequate stiffness, strength, and dimensional stability are critical for ensuring operational reliability and structural safety. The primary objective of this investigation is to evaluate the influence of material …

Experimental Investigation on Shear & Flexural Behavior of GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Beam
Abstract: Reinforced concrete (RC) beams are among the most commonly used structural elements in civil engineering structures. However, the long-term durability of conventional steel reinforcement is often affected by corrosion when exposed to aggressive environmental conditions, which can significantly reduce the service life and structural performance of concrete members. In recent years, Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) bars have emerged as a promising alternative reinforcement material due to their high tensile …
