Additional information
This paper summarises experimental investigations of undamaged and partially damaged reinforced-concrete (RC) beams and columns. The aim of the work was to study the deformation behaviour and strength of these fundamental structural elements under varying levels of localised pre-damage (such as weakening or partial loss of concrete material). There is little experimental data on partially-damaged elements and the present study produced data that led to a comparative study between the structural behaviour of both damaged and undamaged structural elements in order to help understand the effect of local damage and its contribution to structural collapse.
