Abstract
Beam and column where intersects is called as joint or Connection. The different types of joints are classified as corner joint, exterior
joint, interior joint etc. on beam column joint applying quasi-static loading .i. e. monotonic loading on cantilever end of the beam and
study of various parameters as to be find out on corner and exterior beam column joint i.e. maximum stress, minimum stress,
displacement and variation in stiffness of beam column joint can be analyzed in Ansys software ( Non-Linear FEM Software) The
various research studies focused on corner and exterior beam column joints and their behavior, support conditions of beam-column
joints. Some recent experimental studies, however, addressed beam-column joints of substandard RC frames with weak columns, poor
anchorage of longitudinal beam bars and insufficient transverse reinforcement. the behavior of exterior beam column joint is different
than the corner beam column joint.
Keywords: beam, column, corner, exterior, joint, monotonic load, quasi-static, varying stiffness.
Beam-column joints in reinforced concrete buildings must resist significant forces during earthquakes to avoid damage. These joints are vulnerable because the materials have limited strength. Closely spaced steel ties around the column bars in the joint region help control cracking and crushing of concrete by holding the joint together under forces. Sufficient column size and anchoring of beam bars into the column also improve the joint's ability to resist forces by providing better grip of the concrete on the steel reinforcement. Damage to beam-column joints during past earthquakes highlights their importance in earthquake-resistant design.
This presentation elucidates the seismic behaviour of beam-column joint and some methods to improve the resistance of beam-column joints to seismic loads to avoid disasters.

How do Beam-Column Joints in RC Buildings Resist Earthquakes?Malay Patel
Beam-column joints are the intersections between beams and columns in reinforced concrete buildings. These joints must be designed carefully to resist seismic forces during earthquakes to avoid damage. Under earthquake shaking, the beams adjoining a joint experience moments in the same direction, pulling the top bars in one direction and bottom bars in the other. If the column is not wide enough or the concrete strength is low, the bars can slip inside the joint, weakening the structure. Providing closed loop transverse ties through the joint region helps prevent diagonal cracking and crushing of the concrete. The reinforcement cages for all beams at a floor level are ideally prepared together and lowered into place to ensure the ties surround the column bars through the joint region.
This document provides an overview of a student's research project on the seismic behavior of beam-column joints using high-strength materials. The project aims to study different methods and find the best approach. The student will calculate seismic forces, model joints in software, perform manual calculations, and compare results. A literature review covered previous research on reinforcing joints with steel plates or fiber-reinforced polymer sheets and the behavior of high-strength concrete joints under axial loads. The project schedule outlines tasks from literature collection to thesis writing to be completed between January 2016 to May 2016.

This document discusses the seismic behavior of beam-column joints in reinforced concrete moment frames. It begins by introducing beam-column joints and their importance. It then explains that joints have limited strength and are vulnerable to damage during earthquakes. To prevent this, joints must be designed to resist earthquake effects. The document outlines how beams apply moments to joints during quakes and how this can cause diagonal cracking if the joint is not reinforced properly. It concludes that providing large column sizes or steel ties in the joint can prevent such cracking and damage.
Modeling and Analysis of Retrofitted Exterior RC Beam Column Jointmaged salama
This document discusses a study on the behavior of exterior reinforced concrete beam-column joints. It presents an abstract that outlines investigating the behavior of exterior joints using nonlinear pushover analysis in SAP2000. Models of a single exterior joint and a 10-story frame building are analyzed to predict their behavior and failure modes under seismic loads. The study also examines retrofitting exterior joints and portions of beams with carbon fiber reinforced polymer to improve seismic performance.
- Beam-column joints are the weakest points in reinforced concrete frames during earthquakes due to stresses that cause cracking and failure. There are two main types of failure: shear and anchorage.
- Proper design of beam-column joints including use of closed loop ties, intermediate bars, wider columns, and straight beam bars inserted into the column improves earthquake resistance by resisting distortion and improving concrete confinement.
- Innovative techniques for strengthening joints include fiber reinforced concrete and FRP wrapping to prevent cracking and increase strength. Well designed joints are crucial to avoiding damage during seismic activity.
This document summarizes how columns in reinforced concrete buildings resist earthquakes through the use of two types of steel reinforcement - longitudinal bars placed vertically along the column and transverse ties placed horizontally. The transverse ties help resist shear forces from earthquakes by carrying shear loads, holding the vertical bars in place to prevent excessive bending, and containing the concrete. Proper design includes selecting materials, sizing the cross-section, and using a skilled arrangement of reinforcement, including hooks on the ends of ties to prevent their opening.

To conduct pull out test as per IS 2770-1967 (Methods of testing bond in reinforced concrete –part 1 pull out test ) to assess the bond strength development between concrete and steel rebar.
Pull-out test was conducted on:
Mild steel bar
HYSD –parallel ribbed bar
HYSD – diamond ribbed bar
STUDY ON BOND MECHANISM OF PSWC BARS WITH CONCRETEShoaib Wani
PSWC- Plain surface with wave-type configuration, a rebar for durable concrete construction at zero cost addition and much more. The yield strength & the bond strength of HYSD bars > plain round mild steel straight bars. The durability issues related to the use of HYSD bars in RCC & problems of early distress.
Early corrosion due to the provision of surface protrusions in HYSD bars for achieving the higher bond strength.
Alternative solution : A new type of reinforcing steel bar (named as PSWC-bar) with normal plain round surface and deformed axis is proposed.
Braced steel frames are commonly used to resist lateral loads from earthquakes. There are two main types of bracing configurations: concentric and eccentric. Cross bracing provides the highest lateral stiffness compared to diagonal bracing or unbraced frames. Analysis of a sample braced steel frame model found that cross bracing reduced story drift by 87% and column shear and bending moments compared to an unbraced frame. However, axial forces in the columns increased with the addition of bracing. Response spectrum analysis accounted for multiple vibration modes while time history analysis used specific earthquake acceleration records over time. Cross bracing consistently performed best at reducing lateral deformation and forces in the frame.
The document discusses reinforced concrete columns, including their functions, failure modes, classifications, and design considerations. Columns primarily resist axial compression but may also experience bending moments. They can fail due to compression, buckling, or a combination. Design depends on whether the column is short or slender, braced or unbraced. Reinforcement is designed based on the column's expected loads and dimensions using methods specified in design codes like BS 8110.
The document discusses retrofitting of reinforced concrete beam-column joints through various techniques like jacketing, case studies, and concludes with key findings. Specifically, it summarizes three case studies: 1) Retrofitting using reinforced concrete jacketing improved strength and ductility over the brittle original joint. 2) Using carbon fiber reinforced polymer on a damaged joint improved shear strength and ductility. 3) Glass fiber reinforced polymer wrapping a joint improved its shear and bond-slip resistance, producing more ductile failures in beams.
This document summarizes research on beam-column connections in reinforced concrete structures. It discusses the design of new joints, failure of existing joints in earthquakes, and general response characteristics including stiffness, strength, and deformation capacity. It also examines interior and exterior joint details, the effect of axial loads, and plastic drift capacity. The document provides recommended envelope relations for joint strength and stiffness based on experimental data. It concludes with references to further research on modeling joint behavior and fragility.
Reinforced concrete columns and beams are important structural elements that carry compressive and bending loads respectively. Columns can be categorized as short or long based on their height-width ratio and as spiral or tied columns based on their shape. Beams are classified based on their supports as simply supported, fixed, continuous, or cantilever beams. The construction of RCC columns and beams involves laying reinforcement, forming the structure, and pouring concrete to create these load-bearing elements.
Reinforced arches have a wide range of applications. This paper discuss about use of fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) for strengthening of reinforced concrete arches. The experiment is conducted on shallow arches. Three arches are tested. One is used as a control arch while other two are strengthened using FRP strips in different patterns. Six non symmetric point loads are equally spaced along the arches. The arch is modelled as a polygon.

Ductile reinforced concrete beam-column joints with alternative detailingRani Hendrikus
This document summarizes a study on ductile reinforced-concrete beam-column joints with alternative detailing. It discusses test results from a full-scale precast beam-column subassembly specimen (Specimen #2) incorporating ductile thread rod connectors and post-tensioning. The specimen exhibited stable hysteretic behavior with little strength degradation or post-yield deterioration up to 7% drift, comparable to monolithic cast-in-place results. While beam rebar fractured at high drifts, overall the test supported using precast construction for beam-column joints.
we select cantilever beam having I,C,T section and we select material cast iron, stainless steel, steel and analyze base upon modal and static analysis.we see here deformation,stress ,strain and based upon it we conclude.
This document describes different types of beams based on their end support, cross-section shape, equilibrium condition, and geometry. Beams can be simply supported, continuous, overhanging, cantilever, fixed, or trussed based on their end support. Their cross-section can be I-beams, T-beams, or C-beams. Based on equilibrium, beams are either statically determinate or indeterminate. A beam's geometry can be straight, curved, or tapered.

Abstract
Several studies proofs that the weaker columns has low seismic resistance, for this it is need to make the column stronger. The stronger columns can be obtained by many ways, here in this paper steel-concrete composite columns are considered. Use of composite columns in construction reduces the cross-section of the columns throughout the building and also increases the lateral-load resisting capacity to columns. The models consists of G+10, G+15, G+20 stories of Rectangular, L, T and plus shaped structures in which column spacing are varied as 3m, 4m, 5m and 6m along both directions in all structures. For all models the composite-column of size 450x450mm (ISMB 250) is kept constant, only the beam size has been varied accordingly while modeling a structure. The Response Spectrum analysis is done for all the buildings using ETABS version 15. Study is based on the performance of a multi-story building with plan irregularity under major earthquake forces by considering parameters like displacement, storey shear and drifts. Even though the cross section of the column considered is very small for tall buildings, the structure behaves stiff for severe seismic zone-V and also for different conditions; this is done by introducing steel-concrete composite column in a given building. Hence it is concluded that the use of composite columns in construction resists the lateral forces for many vulnerable conditions.

Study of Eccentrically Braced Outrigger Frame under Seismic ExitationIJTET Journal
Outrigger braced structures has efficient structural form consist of a central core, comprising braced frames with
horizontal cantilever ”outrigger” trusses or girders connecting the core to the outer column. When the structure is loaded
horizontally, vertical plane rotation of the core is restrained by the outriggers through tension in windward column and
compression in leeward column. The effective structural depth of the building is greatly increased, thus augmenting the lateral
stiffness of the building and reducing the lateral deflections and moments in core. In effect, the outriggers join the columns to the
core to make the structure behave as a partly composite cantilever. By providing eccentrically braced system in outrigger frame by
varying the size of links and analyzing it. Push over analysis is carried out by varying the link size using computer programs, Sap
2007 to understand their seismic performance. The ductile behavior of eccentrically braced frame is highly desirable for structures
subjected to strong ground motion. Maximum stiffness, strength, ductility and energy dissipation capacity are provided by
eccentrically braced frame. Studies were conducted on the use of outrigger frame for the high steel building subjected to
earthquake load. Braces are designed not to buckle, regardless of the severity of lateral loading on the frame. Thus eccentrically
braced frame ensures safety against collapse.
Earthquake analysis on 2 d rc frames with different aspect ratios of masonry ...eSAT Journals
This document presents an analysis of earthquake performance of 2D reinforced concrete frames with different configurations of masonry infill and monolithic panels. Modal analysis was conducted on frames with masonry infill modeled as equivalent diagonal struts and monolithic panels modeled as shell elements. Natural frequencies from the analysis matched results from shake table tests, validating the models. Frames were then analyzed for earthquake loading in different seismic zones using equivalent static, response spectrum, and time history methods. Results for displacement, acceleration, and inter-story drift were compared for bare frames and frames with infill or monolithic panels.

Analysis of Beam-Column Joint subjected to Seismic Lateral Loading – A ReviewIRJET Journal
This document reviews the analysis and design of beam-column joints in reinforced concrete structures subjected to seismic lateral loading. It discusses that beam-column joints are critical parts that can fail in earthquakes due to shear or inadequate reinforcement anchorage. The document examines different types of beam-column joints and codes for their design. It also reviews past literature on modeling and testing beam-column joints and factors that influence their behavior under seismic loads. The conclusion is that beam-column joint design and detailing is important for seismic resistance and codes have improved based on research but more study is still needed.
Study of castellated beam using stiffeners a revieweSAT Journals
Abstract Now-a-days the use of castellated beam has been admired due to its beneficial functions like light in weight, easy to erect, economical and stronger. The castellated beam is manufactured from its parent solid I beam by cutting it in zigzag pattern and again joining it by welding, so that the depth of the beam increases. Hence, due to increase in depth of beam load carrying capacity of the parent I section is increased with same quantity of material. The increase in depth of castellated beam leads to web post buckling and lateral torsional buckling failure when these beams are subjected to loading. There are many other modes of failure like formation of flexure mechanism, lateral torsional buckling, and formation of vierendeel mechanism, rupture of the welded joint in a web post and shear buckling of a web post which needs to be taken care of. Study shows that use of stiffeners in the web portion of beam helps in minimizing these failures. Therefore, a detailed study in respect of number of stiffeners, size of stiffener and there locations in the web portion of castellated beam needs to be carried out. Hence, in the present paper an attempt has been made to review existing literature, concerned with strength of beam using stiffeners. The literature survey indicates that use of stiffeners in web portion of castellated beams helps in increasing the strength and also minimizing the deflection. Researchers have suggested using stiffener along the edges in order to reduce the stress concentration along openings.. Key Words: openings, castellated beam, cellular beam, stiffener, thickness.
Effect of steel bracing on vertically irregular r.c.c building frames under s...eSAT Journals
Abstract
Earthquakes are one of the most life threatening, environmental hazardous and destructive natural phenomenons that causes
shaking of ground. This result in damage to the structures, hence we need to design the buildings to withstand these earthquakes
which may occur at least once in the life time of the structure. Structures possess less stiffness and strength in case of irregular
configured frames; to enhance this, lateral load resisting systems are introduced into the frames. In this study, G+5 storey
building model has been analyzed considering different types of vertical geometric irregularities and steel bracings using
pushover analysis with the help of ETABS 9.7 software. Addition of X type brace, V type Brace and Inverted V/K type brace shows
that use of X-type of bracing is found more suitable to enhance the performance of the irregular buildings.
Key Words: pushover analysis, vertical irregularity, steel bracings, performance point.
Comparative Study on Masonry Infill, Friction Dampers and Bare Frame Structur...IRJET Journal
The document compares the seismic response of a 10-story building modeled with three different configurations: a bare frame, a frame with masonry infill walls modeled as equivalent diagonal struts, and a frame with friction dampers. Non-linear time history analysis was performed using the EL Centro earthquake record. The addition of masonry infills increased the lateral stiffness and decreased displacements and column moments but also increased base shear and accelerations. The use of friction dampers effectively dissipated energy and reduced the structural response compared to the bare frame, without increasing other demands. Analysis results for story acceleration, displacement, column moment, and base shear are presented for each model.
Dynamic analysis of a reinforced concrete horizontal curved beam using softwareeSAT Journals
Abstract
Dynamic analysis of a reinforced concrete beam bridge, horizontally curved in plan is done using a finite element software. The
support conditions considered are simple supports. Dynamic loading in the form of moving vehicular load is taken into account
for the purpose of analysis. IRC Class AA type of vehicle is simulated on two lanes on the beam of span 31m, having a box type
cross-section. A parametric study is done varying the radius of curvature of the beam from 50 m to 250 m with the interval of 50
m to check the behavior of the beam. Various responses of the beam like bending moment, shear force, torsional moment and
deflection are calculated. The influence of a non-dimensional parameter L/R i.e. ratio of length of the beam to radius of curvature
of the beam is verified for the responses of the beam. From the results, it has been found that the responses i.e. the bending
moment, shear force, torsional moment and deflection of the beam decrease as the radius of curvature of the beam in increased.
Also, the responses of the beam increase as the L/R ratio is increased.

Experimental studies on confined steel concrete composite beams under pure be...eSAT Journals
Abstract
An experimental investigation of the ultimate strength and behaviour of a new type of composite beam called CSCC beam (Confined Steel Concrete Composite Beam) is a concrete beam shuttered with cold formed steel sheet which acts as a composite beam by means of shear connectors and bracings. Stud shear connectors are used to take up the bond between sheet and concrete. The passive confinement by the cold formed sheet in the sides and bottom influences the strength and ductility of the system. These beams are provides very good confinement of concrete. Totally eight CSCC beams are tested and the entire behaviour of the beams are monitored to predict the physical response of the beams under three different types loading such as pure bending, pure torsion and combined bending and torsion. Two point loading was obtained for pure bending. The deformation criteria (deflection, moment and flexural rigidity) are also included in the investigation throughout the entire load history experimentally. The results obtained by the experimental values which are found to be in good agreement.
Keywords—composite beams; pure bending

This document presents the results of a study comparing the abilities of ABAQUS and OpenSees finite element software to model the pinching and softening behavior observed in an experimental cyclic loading test of a reinforced concrete frame. The test was conducted on a full-scale frame in India. Both software were able to generally capture the strength envelope, but OpenSees was better able to model the pinching effect and strength/stiffness degradation seen in the experimental hysteretic curves. The pinching material model in OpenSees accounted for unloading, reloading and strength degradation in a way that improved the accuracy of the numerical simulation results compared to the experimental data.
Evaluation of the use of concentric steel bracing to improve seismic performa...eSAT Journals
Abstract Most of the existing RC frame structures were not designed to withstand seismic effect. To meet those criteria structures should be retrofitted and out of all available retrofitting techniques adding steel braces are considered to be most efficient technique to enhance the seismic performance of the RC frame structure. In the present study three types of buildings are considered i.e., (G+2), (G+5), (G+8) as low rise, medium rise, high rise respectively, and these buildings are assigned by four different types of braces namely X, V, Inverted V, Eccen Forward at the periphery bays of the building in three different pattern i.e., model A, model B and model C. And these buildings are analyzed by nonlinear pushover analysis by using SAP2000.It is observed that the hinges were first formed in beams and followed by columns in bare frame whereas hinges were first formed in braces and followed by columns and followed by beams in case of X, Eccen forward brace and in case of V and inverted V hinges are formed first in brace followed by beams and followed by columns. It is pointed out that RC frames which are assigned with inverted V brace has least shear force and bending moment in the beams when compared to the other brace frames and there is less amount of variations in axial force shear force and bending moment in case of column.

Material management in construction – a case studyeSAT Journals
Abstract
The objective of the present study is to understand about all the problems occurring in the company because of improper application
of material management. In construction project operation, often there is a project cost variance in terms of the material, equipments,
manpower, subcontractor, overhead cost, and general condition. Material is the main component in construction projects. Therefore,
if the material management is not properly managed it will create a project cost variance. Project cost can be controlled by taking
corrective actions towards the cost variance. Therefore a methodology is used to diagnose and evaluate the procurement process
involved in material management and launch a continuous improvement was developed and applied. A thorough study was carried
out along with study of cases, surveys and interviews to professionals involved in this area. As a result, a methodology for diagnosis
and improvement was proposed and tested in selected projects. The results obtained show that the main problem of procurement is
related to schedule delays and lack of specified quality for the project. To prevent this situation it is often necessary to dedicate
important resources like money, personnel, time, etc. To monitor and control the process. A great potential for improvement was
detected if state of the art technologies such as, electronic mail, electronic data interchange (EDI), and analysis were applied to the
procurement process. These helped to eliminate the root causes for many types of problems that were detected.

Life cycle cost analysis of overlay for an urban road in bangaloreeSAT Journals
Abstract
Pavements are subjected to severe condition of stresses and weathering effects from the day they are constructed and opened to traffic
mainly due to its fatigue behavior and environmental effects. Therefore, pavement rehabilitation is one of the most important
components of entire road systems. This paper highlights the design of concrete pavement with added mono fibers like polypropylene,
steel and hybrid fibres for a widened portion of existing concrete pavement and various overlay alternatives for an existing
bituminous pavement in an urban road in Bangalore. Along with this, Life cycle cost analyses at these sections are done by Net
Present Value (NPV) method to identify the most feasible option. The results show that though the initial cost of construction of
concrete overlay is high, over a period of time it prove to be better than the bituminous overlay considering the whole life cycle cost.
The economic analysis also indicates that, out of the three fibre options, hybrid reinforced concrete would be economical without
compromising the performance of the pavement.

Influence of reinforcement on the behavior of hollow concrete block masonry p...eSAT Journals
Abstract
Reinforced masonry was developed to exploit the strength potential of masonry and to solve its lack of tensile strength. Experimental
and analytical studies have been carried out to investigate the effect of reinforcement on the behavior of hollow concrete block
masonry prisms under compression and to predict ultimate failure compressive strength. In the numerical program, three dimensional
non-linear finite elements (FE) model based on the micro-modeling approach is developed for both unreinforced and reinforced
masonry prisms using ANSYS (14.5). The proposed FE model uses multi-linear stress-strain relationships to model the non-linear
behavior of hollow concrete block, mortar, and grout. Willam-Warnke’s five parameter failure theory has been adopted to model the
failure of masonry materials. The comparison of the numerical and experimental results indicates that the FE models can successfully
capture the highly nonlinear behavior of the physical specimens and accurately predict their strength and failure mechanisms.

Influence of compaction energy on soil stabilized with chemical stabilizereSAT Journals
This document summarizes a study on the influence of compaction energy on soil stabilized with a chemical stabilizer. Laboratory tests were conducted on locally available loamy soil treated with a patented polymer liquid stabilizer and compacted at four different energy levels. The study found that increasing the compaction effort increased the density of both untreated and treated soil, but the rate of increase was lower for stabilized soil. Treating the soil with the stabilizer improved its unconfined compressive strength and resilient modulus, and reduced accumulated plastic strain, with these properties further improved by higher compaction efforts. The stabilized soil exhibited strength and performance benefits compared to the untreated soil.

Evaluation of punching shear in flat slabseSAT Journals
Abstract
Flat-slab construction has been widely used in construction today because of many advantages that it offers. The basic philosophy in
the design of flat slab is to consider only gravity forces; this method ignores the effect of punching shear due to unbalanced moments
at the slab column junction which is critical. An attempt has been made to generate generalized design sheets which accounts both
punching shear due to gravity loads and unbalanced moments for cases (a) interior column; (b) edge column (bending perpendicular
to shorter edge); (c) edge column (bending parallel to shorter edge); (d) corner column. These design sheets are prepared as per
codal provisions of IS 456-2000. These design sheets will be helpful in calculating the shear reinforcement to be provided at the
critical section which is ignored in many design offices. Apart from its usefulness in evaluating punching shear and the necessary
shear reinforcement, the design sheets developed will enable the designer to fix the depth of flat slab during the initial phase of the
design.

Estimation of surface runoff in nallur amanikere watershed using scs cn methodeSAT Journals
Abstract
The development of watershed aims at productive utilization of all the available natural resources in the entire area extending from
ridge line to stream outlet. The per capita availability of land for cultivation has been decreasing over the years. Therefore, water and
the related land resources must be developed, utilized and managed in an integrated and comprehensive manner. Remote sensing and
GIS techniques are being increasingly used for planning, management and development of natural resources. The study area, Nallur
Amanikere watershed geographically lies between 110 38’ and 110 52’ N latitude and 760 30’ and 760 50’ E longitude with an area of
415.68 Sq. km. The thematic layers such as land use/land cover and soil maps were derived from remotely sensed data and overlayed
through ArcGIS software to assign the curve number on polygon wise. The daily rainfall data of six rain gauge stations in and around
the watershed (2001-2011) was used to estimate the daily runoff from the watershed using Soil Conservation Service - Curve Number
(SCS-CN) method. The runoff estimated from the SCS-CN model was then used to know the variation of runoff potential with different
land use/land cover and with different soil conditions.

Abstract The nonlinear Static procedure also well known as pushover analysis is method where in monotonically increasing loads are applied to the structure till the structure is unable to resist any further load. It is a popular tool for seismic performance evaluation of existing and new structures. In literature lot of research has been carried out on conventional pushover analysis and after knowing deficiency efforts have been made to improve it. But actual test results to verify the analytically obtained pushover results are rarely available. It has been found that some amount of variation is always expected to exist in seismic demand prediction of pushover analysis. Initial study is carried out by considering user defined hinge properties and default hinge length. Attempt is being made to assess the variation of pushover analysis results by considering user defined hinge properties and various hinge length formulations available in literature and results compared with experimentally obtained results based on test carried out on a G+2 storied RCC framed structure. For the present study two geometric models viz bare frame and rigid frame model is considered and it is found that the results of pushover analysis are very sensitive to geometric model and hinge length adopted.

Abstract
Depletion of natural resources and aggregate quarries for the road construction is a serious problem to procure materials. Hence
recycling or reuse of material is beneficial. On emphasizing development in sustainable construction in the present era, recycling of
asphalt pavements is one of the effective and proven rehabilitation processes. For the laboratory investigations reclaimed asphalt
pavement (RAP) from NH-4 and crumb rubber modified binder (CRMB-55) was used. Foundry waste was used as a replacement to
conventional filler. Laboratory tests were conducted on asphalt concrete mixes with 30, 40, 50, and 60 percent replacement with RAP.
These test results were compared with conventional mixes and asphalt concrete mixes with complete binder extracted RAP
aggregates. Mix design was carried out by Marshall Method. The Marshall Tests indicated highest stability values for asphalt
concrete (AC) mixes with 60% RAP. The optimum binder content (OBC) decreased with increased in RAP in AC mixes. The Indirect
Tensile Strength (ITS) for AC mixes with RAP also was found to be higher when compared to conventional AC mixes at 300C.

anchorage of longitudinal beam bars and insufficient transverse reinforcement. the behavior of exterior beam column joint is different
than the corner beam column joint.
Keywords: beam, column, corner, exterior, joint, monotonic load, quasi-static, varying stiffness.

1. INTRODUCTION
Earthquakes are one of the most feared natural phenomena
that are relatively unexpected and whose impact is sudden due
to the almost instantaneous destruction that a major
earthquake can produce. Severity of ground shaking at a given
location during an earthquake can be minor, moderate and
strong which relatively speaking occur frequently,
occasionally an rarely respectively. Design and construction of
a building to resist the rare earthquake shaking that may come
only once in 500 years or even once in 2000 years at a chosen
project site even though life of the building itself may be only
50 to 100 years is too robust and also too expensive. Hence,
the main intention is to make building earthquake-resistant
that resist the effect of ground shaking although it may get
damaged severely but would not collapse during even the
strong earthquake. Thus, the safety of people and contents is
assured in earthquake-resistant buildings. This is a major
objective of seismic design codes throughout the world.
A Beam-Column Joints is defined as the portion of a column
within the depth of the beams that frame into it. Formerly, the
design of monolithic joints was limited to providing adequate
encourage for the reinforcement. However the increasing use
of high strength concrete, resulting in smaller member cross
section, and the use large diameter of reinforcing bars now
required that more attention be given to joint design and
detailing.
1.1 Exterior Joint Mechanism
When the joint is applied with different loads the mechanism
of force transfer takes place. This mechanism is shown in
fig.1.

frame Subjected to gravity loads.(Exterior Seismic Beam

based on Finite Element Method. A comparison of the
numerical and experimental results is presented in order to
validate the simulation. The results showed that the column
axial load made the joint more stiff but also introduced
stresses in the beam longitudinal reinforcement. A more
uniform stress distribution in the joint region is obtained when
the stirrup ratio is increased. Furthermore, some tension from
the top beam longitudinal reinforcement is absorbed by the
stirrups located at the upper part of the joint. This paper gives
the affect of stirrup ratio to exterior beam-column joints where
the beam is loaded monotonically. It was concluded that
stirrups located in the upper region of the joint absorb part of
the tension stress proceeding from beam longitudinal
reinforcement and improve their anchorage.
Hegger Josef,Sherif Alaa and Roeser Wolfgang This paper
investigate the behavior of exterior and interior beam-column
joints by Nonlinear finite element analysis using ATENA a
software for nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete
structures. The model has been calibrated using the results of
the third author’s tests. The behavior of exterior and interior
beam-column turned out to be different .The parameters
influencing the shear strength are not the same for both types
of connections. Different parameters like effect of the material
properties, effect of geometry of connection, effect of
reinforcement, effect of concrete compressive strength and
joint slenderness. The parameters influencing the shear
capacity are different for exterior and interior connections.
The FE results were compared with the author’s experimental
results and the good agreement between the two was achieved.
3. FRAMED JOINTS
Beam column joints can be critical regions in reinforced
concrete frames designed for inelastic response to severe
seismic attack. As a consequence of seismic moments in
columns of opposite signs immediately above and below the
joint, the joint region is subjected to horizontal and vertical
shear forces whose magnitude is typically many times higher
than in the adjacent beams and columns.
Features of joint behavior: Under seismic action large shear
forces may be introduced into beam–column joints
irrespective of whether plastic hinges develop at column faces
or at some other section of beams. These shear forces may
cause a failure in the joint core due to the breakdown of shear
or bond mechanisms or both.
Equilibrium criteria: As a joint is also a part of a column,
examination of its function as a column component is
instructive. An interior column extending between points of
contra flexure, at half storey heights may be isolated as free
body, as shown in fig. Actions introduced by symmetrically
reinforced beams to the column are shown in fig. to be internal
horizontal tension Tb and compression Cb forces and vertical
beam shear Vb forces.
(a) (b) (c) (d) (e)
Fig.2. Features of column and joint behavior
Making approximation that Cb = Tb and the beam shear on
both sides of the joint are equal, equilibrium of the free body
shown requires a horizontal column shear force of
The intensity of the horizontal shear within the joint Vjh is
typically four to six times larger than that across the column
between adjacent joints Vc.

4. LOADING SYSTEMS
4.1 Types of Loading systems
The behavior of building is studied with different types of
loads.
1) Static loading
Static means slow loading in structural testing.
-Test of components
-Beams (bending), column (axial), beams and columns
Purpose of testing
-Determine strength limits
-Determine the flexibility/rigidity of structures
2) Quasi-static loading
Very slowly applied loading in one direction (monotonic)
3) Quasi-static reversed cyclic loading
Very slowly applied loading in both direction (cyclic)
4) Dynamic (random) loading
-Shake at the base or any other elevation of the structure
-Shaking similar to that during earthquakes.
5. FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS
The Finite Element Analysis is a numerical technique in which
all complexities of the problems varying shape, boundary
conditions and loads are maintained as they are but the
solutions obtained are approximate. Solutions can be obtained
for all problems by Finite Element Analysis.
Various steps involved in FEM are as follows.
1. Selection of field variables and the elements.
2. Discretization of structure.
3. Finding the element properties
4. Assembling element stiffness matrix
5. Solution of nodal unknowns
6. ELEMENT TYPE USED
Reinforced Concrete: An eight-node solid element, Solid65,
was used to model the concrete. The solid element has eight
nodes with three degrees of freedom at each node –
translations in the nodal x, y, and z directions. The element is
capable of plastic deformation, cracking in three orthogonal
directions, and crushing. The geometry and node locations for
this element type are shown in below.
Fig4. Solid65 – 3-D reinforced concrete solid (ANSYS 1998)
A Link8 element is used to model the steel reinforcement.
Two nodes are required for this element. Each node has three
degrees of freedom, – translations in the nodal x, y, and z
directions. The element is also capable of plastic deformation.
7. MATERIAL PROPERTIES
Concrete Development of a model for the behavior of
concrete is a challenging task. Concrete is a quasi-brittle
material and has different behavior in compression and
tension. The tensile strength of concrete is typically 8-15% of
the compressive strength (Shah, et al. 1995). Figure below
shows a typical stress-strain curve for normal weight concrete
(Bangash 1989).In compression, the stress-strain curve for
concrete is linearly elastic up to about 30 percent of the
maximum compressive strength. Above this point, the stress
increases gradually up to the maximum compressive strength.
After it reaches the maximum compressive strength σcu
, the
curve descends into a softening region, and eventually
crushing failure occurs at an ultimate strain εcu
. In tension, the
stress-strain curve for concrete is approximately linearly
elastic up to the maximum tensile strength. After this point,
the concrete cracks and the strength decreases gradually to
zero (Bangash 1989).
7.1 Steel Reinforced Concrete [Smeared Model]
Material Properties
In this project the structure has been modeled using Steel
Reinforced Concrete. The material properties mentioned
below act equivalent for a Smeared Reinforcement concrete
model using solid 65 element in Ansys. Many research papers
have been published using similar kind of model. Broujerdian
et. al (2010) have worked using a similar approach. The used
of this features enables obtaining good results with less solver
and modeling time.

linearly.
9) The behavior of corner beam column joint is different
than that of the exterior beam column joint.
