The methodology framework determines the selection and alignment of steel reinforcement bars in an RC building frame for the minimum steel reinforcement area, considering longitudinal tensile, longitudinal compressive and shear steel reinforcement.
Safety features, such as frame reinforcements, airbags, antilock brakes, and electronic traction control systems have made the cars heavier Improved engine performance has focused on boosting horsepower rather than fuel economy.
The wall configurations differed in terms of wall aspect ratio, framing and sheathing thickness, screw fastener schedule and framing reinforcement.
The walls, which were subjected to lateral loading and combined lateral plus gravity loading, differed in sheathing thickness, screw fastener detailing, framing thickness, aspect ratio and framing reinforcement.
Additionally, shaking table tests were implemented on a RC frame (steel reinforcement ratios of columns were about 2.0%) and a plain UHDCC frame.
Variability of parameters was simplified by classifying components based on material strength (masonry infill) and the coefficients of longitudinal reinforcement (reinforced concrete frame).

Subaru's assurances of a crash-resistant "ring-shaped reinforcement frame" are best left untested.

On 10 December 1996, a man drove a Mercedes truck supporting a crane towards the southbound tunnel, ignored warnings that his vehicle was over-height, and struck a gantry, breaking a steel reinforcement frame in the process.
PFH is based on social cognitive theory that uses message framing, repetition and reinforcement to increase the patient's knowledge, skills, and motivations to practice safer sex.
