Abstract:Reinforced Baked Clay (RBC) may serve as low-cost materials of building construction to substitute Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC). De ection of a beam under a sustained load is considered an important parameter. Based on reports obtained from the literature, no study has been carried out on the e ect of reinforcement on long-term de ection response of RBC beams and relative comparison to that of RCC beams. For this purpose, RBC beams were manufactured, baked, and post-reinforced in the tension zone only with… Show more
