Abstract

Retrofitting is a key strategy to restore or enhance the performance of reinforced concrete structures damaged by overloading, deterioration, fire, or seismic events. This study synthesizes findings from three approaches: a literature review, experimental testing using FRP on reinforced beams, and a case study involving post-fire strengthening with CFRP and steel bracing. Various methods epoxy injection, concrete jacketing, FRP, CFRP, and bracing are compared based on effectiveness, structural impact, and application context. Results indicate that CFRP and FRP significantly improve flexural and shear strength, epoxy injection is suitable for minor cracks, and concrete jacketing enhances capacity substantially. For fire-damaged structures, combining CFRP and steel bracing effectively reduced drift ratios and restored structural integrity. SAP2000 modeling results align closely with experimental data, confirming its reliability in retrofit analysis. The study highlights that retrofit selection must consider damage level, element type, and cost-efficiency.

Abstract

This literature review presents a comparative analysis of various applications of the Finite Element Method (FEM) in the modeling and analysis of civil engineering structures, with a specific focus on cold-formed steel (CFS) connections and reinforced concrete columns. The primary aim of this research is to evaluate the precision and reliability of computational simulations in replicating complex structural behaviors under diverse loading conditions. The review methodology was conducted through a systematic selection of studies published between 2015 and 2025 that examine the effectiveness of FEM in comparison to analytical and experimental approaches. Aggregate results indicate that FEM exhibits a deviation of 25–29% from experimental outcomes in modeling Haunched Gusset Plate (HGP) connections within CFS structures, while effectively predicting bolt hole failure modes. In reinforced concrete columns, modeling using the Concrete Damage Plasticity (CDP) approach demonstrates an increase in axial capacity by 115–121% due to variations in stirrup configurations. Overall, this review confirms that FEM is an accurate and efficient predictive tool for analyzing the nonlinear behavior of structures and plays a vital role in structural optimization and enhancing the design reliability of modern engineering.

Abstract

The Finite Element Method (FEM) is one of the most significant numerical approaches in structural analysis within civil engineering. FEM is widely used to analyze the behavior of complex structures by discretizing them into smaller elements. This article presents a literature review of nine studies that applied FEM to various structural objects: dams, various reinforced concrete (RC) structures, including infrastructure elements, high-rise buildings, and steel-based components. The review findings indicate that FEM is capable of providing accurate predictions of stresses, deflections, and failure patterns. However, its accuracy strongly depends on geometric modeling, material assumptions, boundary conditions, and validation against field data steel structures, and machine components. This article provides an in-depth understanding of the advantages, limitations, and future prospects of FEM in civil engineering applications.

Abstract

The Finite Element Method (FEM) is essential for analyzing complex structures, but a knowledge gap exists regarding result differences found between transparent manual/script methods (Excel, MATLAB) and automated commercial software (SAP2000, ETABS). This comparison is vital to address the need for transparent validation practices, especially for learning and design optimization. This study's objective is to compare key FEM outputs (nodal displacements, member forces, support reactions) using a literature review with a descriptive-analytic method. Main findings show two patterns: high consistency (results reported as "same" or <5% difference) for axial-dominated truss structures, attributed to decimal rounding ; however, large discrepancies were found specifically in bending moment components for portal frames. A data contradiction (10.89% displacement error vs. <0.1% force error) also highlighted manual implementation risks. It is concluded that FEM results are generally reliable. The practical implication is recommending transparent manual methods for learning purposes and algorithm validation , while commercial software is suited for complex professional design due to high computational efficiency.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of technology has significantly influenced structural engineering, particularly in the design of complex geometries and the analysis of irregular load distributions. Conventional manual calculations often fail to provide precise and reliable results, especially when dealing with large-scale or intricate structural systems. To address these limitations, numerical methods such as the Finite Element Method (FEM) have been developed and widely implemented. FEM divides a structure into smaller elements interconnected through nodal points, enabling detailed analysis of displacements, stresses, and reactions. Alongside theoretical development, FEM has been integrated into computer-based applications that provide more efficient, accurate, and user-friendly tools for structural analysis and design. This paper reviews several widely used FEM-based applications, including SAP2000, ETABS, ANSYS, and ABAQUS. This article utilizes the Literature Review method to review and synthesize findings from four previous studies. Each software offers unique strengths: SAP2000 and ETABS are widely applied in building and general infrastructure design; ANSYS and ABAQUS are well-suited for nonlinear and advanced multiphysics analysis. By comparing these applications, this review confirms the key finding that software specialization (SAP2000/ETABS for infrastructure vs. ANSYS/ABAQUS for advanced non-linear analysis) is crucial. Ultimately, FEM-based applications not only improve the accuracy and efficiency of structural analysis but also enhance safety, reliability, and sustainability in modern construction practices.
