Abstract |
Seismic failures are vulnerable and beam-column joints are critical in transferring the forces and moments in multistoried RC framed structures. Reinforced concrete beam-column joints are fabricated and cyclic loads are applied. Two numbers of specimen were cast out of which one is based on strong column weak beam and the remaining based on strong beam weak column. In work mix design for the concrete specimen and strength of concrete cubes and beam column joints specimen casting were completed. The column subjected to an axial force while the beams are subjected to cyclic load with controlled displacement. The displacement is increased monotonically using a hydraulic push and pull jack. The hysteretic curves of the specimen have been plotted. The results show that the strengthened beam column joint exhibit increased strength, stiffness, energy dissipation and composite action until failure. |
