Investigation of Grouted Helical Pier based Foundation Rehabilitation
22 Oct 2010 | Publications | Contributor(s): Tara Hutchinson, Dan Wilson
This data report describes the centrifuge test that was performed in June 2006 on the UC Davis geotechnical centrifuge. The purpose of the test was to develop the instruments and materials for in-flight grouting and simulate and study the working mechanisms and properties of grouted …

Hybrid Simulation Evaluation of Innovative Steel Braced Framing System
25 Feb 2011 | Publications | Contributor(s): Bozidar Stojadinovic, T.Y. Yang, Jack Moehle
Conventional concentrically braced steel frames are not capable of redistributing large unbalanced vertical forces caused by brace buckling through the system. This creates many design challenges to engineers. In order to retain the advantages of providing efficient stiffness and …

Anchorage Detailing Effects on Lateral Deformation Components of R/C Shear Walls
26 May 2010 | Publications | Contributor(s): Benton Johnson
Structural walls, or shear walls, are elements used to resist lateral loads, such as those generated by wind and earthquakes. Structural walls are considerably deeper than typical beams or columns. This attribute gives structural walls considerable in-plane stiffness which makes structural walls …

Performance of T-shaped Reinforced Concrete Structural Walls under Multi-Directional Loading
26 May 2010 | Publications | Contributor(s): Beth Brueggen
The study described in this thesis was a key component of a larger, collaborative project involving researchers from the University of Minnesota (Narina Jung, Ben Johnson), Iowa State University (Sri Sritharan, Jon Waugh, Sriram Aaleti), University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez (Ricardo Lopez) and a …

05 Jun 2010 | Publications | Contributor(s): Damon Fick
Reinforced concrete flat-plate construction is a popular building type because of the simple formwork required for construction and the clearance that is provided for mechanical and electrical equipment. During the period 1950 through 1980, buildings using the flat-plate for the lateral-force …

A quarter-scale, 67 ft (20.5 m) long asymmetric reinforced concrete bridge model with two-spans supported on three, two-column piers was tested using the shake table system at the University of Nevada Reno. In addition, extensive analytical studies were conducted. The shake table testing was part …
