In the scope of this study the behaviour of RC beams with regular web openings subjected to monotonhic loading is investigated. Thus six beams with regular triangular or regular circular openings and three beams without openings as a reference to these beams are tested. The test parameters are chosen as the geometry of the opening [...]

In geotechnical engineering applications, soil classification system is one of the communication language among engineers. Engineers have discovered to transfer their experiences through this way. By only knowing soil class does not eliminate necessary detailed soil investigations and other laboratory tests which measure engineering properties. However, if an engineer knows soil class, one can have [...]

In construction structures, the problems during construction forces us to create some openings on the beams for installment. But these openings seriously effect badly to the beam’s strength. Most of the researches tried to find solutions to the bad effects of the one opening on the beams. But in this thesis, instead of creating one [...]

In this study we look at earthquake effects on buildings and how to solve structural designs against performance. In DBYBHY-2007 regulations, earthquake performance evaluation methods explained in short and give information about how to evaluate structural performance of buildings during earthquakes for only Sakarya province; According to developing constructural works regulations, two floors + basement [...]

In this thesis, effects of fly-ash and polypropylene fibers on the properties of roller compacted concrete (RCC) designed for highway pavement application were investigated.
In the first part of the study; water contents of 16 different RCC mixtures, containing 0, 20, 40 and 60% fly-ash by mass of binder material and 0, 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75% [...]

In this experimental study, the cracks which occur in predamaged RC beams, exposed to reversed cyclic loading, are repaired by epoxy injection and its effect on flexural stiffness is investigated. The flexural stiffness is calculated from the initial tangent of the load-displacement curves throughout the study.

Plates generally described as the elements whose one dimension is smaller than the other two dimensions. In this work, the deformations of plates under single load, uniform distributed load and impact load, are calculated with finite difference method. In this analysis, second degree central finite difference method is used and the equations which are gained [...]

This study focus on to develop a new connection type which is based on plastic design principles. For this purpose two steel profiles are connected by a brittle material,CFRP, and tested under 4 point loading. Moment rotation capacity of minimum 3 is investigated on these CFRP connected beams. 4 steel beam specimen with 4 different [...]

In this study, a 20 storeyed (ground floor + 19 normal floor) steel building was analiysed and scrutinized according to DBYBHY 2007 (Turkish Code about Buildings That Are Constructed on Seismic Regions 2007) with different concentrically and eccentrically braced membersand also moment frames. In study, SAP 2000 program used for analysis

Connections of the steel constructions have an effective role at the determination of the safety and performance of steel structures. Examining the all components of a steel construction requires a long period of time because of the variety of the components as a result of geometric factors and constructive facts. Even some steel construction connection [...]
