Abstract

The objective of this study is to evaluate the fexural behaviour of stainless-steel fbre-reinforced concrete beam-column (BC) joints under reverse cyclic loading. Based on the properties of concrete with various percentages of fbre, the optimized volume fraction was obtained as 0.75% of stainless-steel fbre. In the present work, two sets of beam-column joints with and without fbres were cast and tested under reverse cyclic loading. Te beam-column joints were loaded up to fve cycles, to study their behaviour,and examine the failure pattern of the joint. Based on test results, parameters such as ductility and the energy absorption capacity characteristics were evaluated. It is concluded that the inclusion of stainless-steel fbre improves the overall seismic resistance of RC beam-column joints
