Numerical analysis of under-designed reinforced concrete beam-column joints under cyclic loading

Saptarshi Sasmal, Balthasar Novak and K. Ramanjaneyulu

Abstract

In the present study, exterior beam-column sub-assemblage from a regular reinforced concrete (RC) building has been considered. Two different types of beam-column sub-assemblages from existing RC building have been considered, i.e., gravity load designed (
