Beam-Column Joint plays an imperative part in the seismic enactment of Reinforced concrete moment resisting frame. The response of the structure under the earthquake loads mainly depends on the behavior and performance of the Beam-Column Joint (BCJ). An experimental investigation on exterior reinforced beam-column joints done using steel fibre reinforced self-compacting concrete subjected to reversed cyclic loading is presented in this investigation. The attempt has been made to demonstrate the influence of steel fibers reinforced self-compacting concrete (SCC). Three exterior beam-column joints having the same geometry were cast and tested through reversed cyclic load using displacement-controlled mechanism. All three specimens are designed adequately in accordance with IS 13920:2016 code. The hysteresis loop, ductility factor, stiffness degradation, energy dissipation characteristics, and damage propagation are considered to quantify the response of joint specimens. The results show enhanced ductility, energy dissipation capacity and damage tolerance behavior with the increase in steel fibers percentage in SCC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
