“…Increasing displacement to reach 6.39 mm, members (19)(20) and (19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30) were buckled and followed by buckling members (25-36) and (25-26) at displacement 15.67 mm. Also members (3)(4) and (23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34) collapsed in tension at displacement 33.52 mm (see Fig. 8).…”

The purpose of this paper is introducing a simplified and computationally efficient finite element model to investigate the nonlinear behavior of composite and non-composite space trusses. Two models were employed using the Finite Element ANSYS program in order to analyze the space trusses. The first model simulates the non-composite space trusses while the second model simulates the composite space trusses. Also this research presents the comparisons between the results of the current finite element models and four previous published space trusses in order to verify the validity of the current models. Comparisons between the results of the two models and the results of the four previous published space trusses indicated that the numerical analysis created by the FE ANSYS program using the two employed models can predict the general collapse behavior of the space trusses.

The main objective of the current paper is to investigate the effects of the ratio of steel fibers on structural behavior of reinforced concrete hemispherical domes. Three reinforced concrete domes were experimentally implemented, two of them made fully of reactive powder concrete and the last one made of ferrocement concrete. All specimens have 800 mm diameter, 400 mm height and 20 mm thickness, and they reinforced with welded wire meshes. The experimental program included casting and testing the domes, by applied a single point load at the center of dome, until the failure is happened. The first cracking load, ultimate load, load deflection curves, and crack pattern for all tested domes were included in this study. In general, the effects of concrete type and the ratio of steel fiber are obviously important on the behavior and ultimate strength of the domes.

“…Its applications include aqueducts, boats, buildings, bus shelters, bridge decks, food and water storage containers, irrigation structures, retaining walls, sculptures, roofing, repairing and traffic-caution signboards. From previous studies, it can be concluded that ferrocement has a considerably higher bond area or specific surface than conventional reinforcement and ferrocement beam has better crack control and the smaller crack width than reinforced concrete (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19) .…”

An experimental program was designed in the current work to examine the structural behavior of ferrocement tank under static pressure loads. The experimental program consists of construction and testing of two ferrocemnt tanks having the dimensions of 800 mm width, 800 mm length and 400 mm wall height. The wall and footing thickness is 40 mm and 70 mm; respectively. The two tanks were different in the type of reinforcements; welded and expanded wire meshes. The structural performances of the all tested tanks in terms of strength, cracking behavior and energy absorption were investigated. The results of the experimental tests indicated that tank reinforced with two layers of welded wire meshes has the highest first crack and ultimate load and it has the maximum energy absorption.
