In civil engineering, flexural beams are used to control the effect of vibrations that can cause cracks to appear in surfaces (concrete slabs) and beams. This is particularly important in buildings ...
This paper investigates the effect of High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composite (HPFRCC) with steel fibers on two fixed-end beams. Eight beams with identical sections were tested: two ...
When used in structural engineering, the term deflection refers to load-induced displacement, which typically affects beam designs. It can be an extremely complicated value to calculate when ...
