During the Itzmit earthquake some LNG tanks sustained by reinforced concrete columns were subject to important damages followed by the collapse of the basement, due to the insufficient shear strength of the columns (Figure 5b) (Sezen et al., 2007)...

The SFP itself musf be capable of holding the significant weight associated with the racks, spent fuel, and wafer under normal and accident conditions. The key SFP structural members include four reinforced concrete walls and a base slab that are lined with a stainless steel liner. The pool walls are supported by reinforced concrete columns and a mass foim-dation. The SFP may also be supported by a system of caissons that extend below the pool slab through the supporting soil and into the underlying bedrock. Floor slabs adjacent to the SFP walls provide horizontal bracing.

The application of any type of fibre in structural elements subjected to compression is infrequent, because the limited advantages do not counterbalance increased cost and more complicated technology. However, by the addition of fibres to conventional reinforced concrete columns, a moderate...

To calculate debris impact, a mass of 455 kg is used to represent a floating object at the water surface. The mass used is consistent with the recommendations of CCH and FEMA 55. In this example, it is assumed that the debris will impact a single reinforced concrete column. CCH assumes a duration of 0.1 s for concrete structures. FEMA 55 recommends an impact duration ranging from 0.3 to 0.6 s for reinforced concrete piles or columns. Hence, impact duration of 0.3 s is assumed in the design example.

The roof has the shape of a cylindrical surface, and it consists of four structurally independent parts. The basic element of each part is a main truss girder, simply supported on reinforced concrete pylons, arranged at the four comers of the stadium, as shown also in the sections of Fig. 32. Secondary beams are supported on these main girders and on the exterior peripheral reinforced concrete columns of the grandstands (Figs. 33...

Turning to compression members, Nagasaka [16] found that steel fibres were also very effective in increasing both the shear capacity and the energy absorption in reinforced concrete columns. The fibres were apparently more effective than the conventional hoop reinforcement. Campione et al. [17,18] and Campione and Mindess [19] also demonstrated the effectiveness of fibres in compression members.
