CHARACTERISTIC FORMULAS OF DAMAGE INDICES FOR REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES: A GENERAL GUIDELINE
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
The damages to structures are quantified by employing a damage index (DI). This paper deals with the existing damage indices proposed for the reinforced concrete (RC) structures. The existing formulas and models were proposed at different forms for the damages mainly caused by the earthquake. Generally, damage indices are based on the plastic deformation, inelastic deformation, and energy distribution. In this paper, the main characteristic formulations proposed for damage indices to quantify the damges to reinforced concrete structures presented.
