    Effect of Internal and External Shear Wall Location on Strengthening Weak RC Frames
    (SHARIF UNIV TECH, 2010) Kaltakcı, M. Y.; Arslan, M. H.; Yavuz, G.
    Hundreds of thousands of Reinforced Concrete (RC) buildings have been either seriously damaged or have completely collapsed due to major earthquakes in recent years in Turkey, therefore, the construction of RC buildings gained momentum by the aid of scientific studies on strengthening. As well as mentioning the importance of the strengthening process using Shear Walls (SW) in RC buildings of poor earthquake performance, an experimental study carried out to analyze the influence of the location of a SW on the existing system was also mentioned in this study. A total of three, two-storey, two-bay RC frames of 1/3 scale were produced for the experiments by expecting them to represent the behavior of the RC frames having weak earthquake strength; two of which were strengthened with SWs. The main aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of internal and external SW locations on strengthened weak, RC frame earthquake behavior. The strength, stiffness and ductility of the tested frames were compared within the light of numerical results obtained from the experiments. In the study, an overall comparison of strengthening methods was made in terms of applicability, usability and cost.

    An Experimental Study on the Behaviour of Normal and Lightweight Reinforced Concrete Corbels and Analysis With Truss/strut-and-tie Model
    (2001) Kaltakçı, M. Y.; Yavuz, G.
    The behavior of normal and lightweight reinforced concrete corbels was studied by using truss/strut-and-tie model. It was observed that the normal and lightweight concrete specimens showed ductile behavior under continuous loading with respect to stepped loading. It was found that the strut-and-tie model is suitable and rational method to design the normal and lightweight concrete corbels according to real behavior.
