Book Reinforced Concrete Beams  Columns and Frames

Download or read book Reinforced Concrete Beams Columns and Frames written by Jostein Hellesland and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-02-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is focused on the theoretical and practical design of reinforced concrete beams, columns and frame structures. It is based on an analytical approach of designing normal reinforced concrete structural elements that are compatible with most international design rules, including for instance the European design rules – Eurocode 2 – for reinforced concrete structures. The book tries to distinguish between what belongs to the structural design philosophy of such structural elements (related to strength of materials arguments) and what belongs to the design rule aspects associated with specific characteristic data (for the material or loading parameters). A previous book, entitled Reinforced Concrete Beams, Columns and Frames – Mechanics and Design, deals with the fundamental aspects of the mechanics and design of reinforced concrete in general, both related to the Serviceability Limit State (SLS) and the Ultimate Limit State (ULS), whereas the current book deals with more advanced ULS aspects, along with instability and second-order analysis aspects. Some recent research results including the use of non-local mechanics are also presented. This book is aimed at Masters-level students, engineers, researchers and teachers in the field of reinforced concrete design. Most of the books in this area are very practical or code-oriented, whereas this book is more theoretically based, using rigorous mathematics and mechanics tools. Contents 1. Advanced Design at Ultimate Limit State (ULS). 2. Slender Compression Members – Mechanics and Design. 3. Approximate Analysis Methods. Appendix 1. Cardano’s Method. Appendix 2. Steel Reinforcement Table. About the Authors Jostein Hellesland has been Professor of Structural Mechanics at the University of Oslo, Norway since January 1988. His contribution to the field of stability has been recognized and magnified by many high-quality papers in famous international journals such as Engineering Structures, Thin-Walled Structures, Journal of Constructional Steel Research and Journal of Structural Engineering.

Book Design Examples for High Strength Steel Reinforced Concrete Columns

Download or read book Design Examples for High Strength Steel Reinforced Concrete Columns written by Sing-Ping Chiew and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the companion volume to Design of High Strength Steel Reinforced Concrete Columns – A Eurocode 4 Approach. This book provides a large number of worked examples for the design of high strength steel reinforced concrete (SRC) columns. It is based on the Eurocode 4 approach, but goes beyond this to give much needed guidance on the narrower range of permitted concrete and steel material strengths in comparison to EC2 and EC3, and the better ductility and buckling resistance of SRC columns compared to steel or reinforced concrete. Special considerations are given to resistance calculations that maximize the full strength of the materials, with concrete cylinder strength up to 90 N/mm2, yield strength of structural steel up to 690 N/mm2 and yield strength of reinforcing steel up to 600 N/mm2 respectively. These examples build on the design principles set out in the companion volume, allowing the readers to practice and understand the EC4 methodology easily. Structural engineers and designers who are familiar with basic EC4 design should find these design examples particularly helpful, whilst engineering undergraduate and graduate students who are studying composite steel concrete design and construction should easily gain further understanding from working through the worked examples which are set out in a step-by-step clearly fashion.

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled INELASTIC DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAMS AND LIMITED DUCTILE HIGH-STRENGTH CONCRETE COLUMNS submitted by Ho Ching Ming Johnny for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in January 2003 This thesis studies the inelastic analysis and design of normal- and high-strength reinforced concrete beams and high-strength reinforced concrete columns. Particular attention is given to the proposed design method of limited ductile high-strength reinforced concrete columns. Analytical studies on normal- and high-strength reinforced concrete beams and experimental research on high-strength reinforced concrete columns are conducted and discussed. To investigate the post-peak behaviour and flexural ductility performance of reinforced concrete beams and columns, the author proposes a new method of rigorous nonlinear moment-curvature analysis that incorporates the strain history effect of tension steel. The moment-curvature curves derived using the new method resemble more closely the actual post-peak behaviour of reinforced concrete members compared to their conventionally-derived counterparts. The results enable the author to derive: (1) a theoretical equation that correlates the curvature ductility factor of reinforced concrete beams to various structural parameters; (2) two sets of design ultimate concrete strains suitable for use with either the proposed equivalent rectangular concrete stress block or the equivalent rectangular stress block of BS 8110; and (3) a series of design charts that facilitates the concurrent design of flexural strength and ductility of reinforced concrete beams. A new parametric study using the proposed analysis method is also conducted to refine the author's previously-proposed equation on transverse steel content of limited ductile high-strength reinforced concrete columns. A series of high-strength reinforced concrete columns containing transverse reinforcement calculated in accordance with this refined equation are tested under compressive axial load and reversed cyclic inelastic displacements to assess its adequacy. These columns prove capable of achieving a curvature ductility factor close to 10, which is the commonly-accepted measure for limited ductile structures. They are subsequently compared with another series of columns containing transverse steel calculated in accordance with the shear requirement of BS 8110. The performance of the latter series is shown to be much worse than the former in terms of flexural strength and ductility. The influence of transverse steel configuration is investigated on some test specimens selected from these two series of columns. In addition, three column specimens are tested to investigate the effect of tension steel lap splice. The test results indicate that the lap splice should be located further away from the potential plastic hinge region. The author also proposes a rational evaluation of plastic hinge length, which could hitherto only be assessed empirically during experimental tests, using various methods that can be grouped into direct and indirect methods. The results are compared with the experimental data obtained from the majority of the column test specimens and with the experimental data obtained by other researchers, and they match closely. To facilitate the design of limited ductile hig

Book Effect of Load Pattern and History on Performance of Reinforced Concrete Columns

Download or read book Effect of Load Pattern and History on Performance of Reinforced Concrete Columns written by Fatemeh Shirmohammadi and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accurate and realistic assessment of the performance of columns in general, and those in critical locations that may cause progressive failure of the entire structure, in particular, is significantly important. This performance is affected by the load history, pattern, and intensity. Current design code does not consider the effect of load pattern on the load and displacement capacity of columns. A primary research sponsored by Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) was conducted as the initial step of the present study (No. K-TRAN: KSU-11-5). The main goals of the KDOT project were: (1) investigation of new KDOT requirements in terms of the column design procedure and detailing and their consistency with AASHTO provisions; (2) verification of the KDOT assumptions for the plastic hinge regions for columns and bridge piers, (3) provide assessment of the load capacity of the existing columns and bridge piers in the light of the new specifications and using the new load demand as in the new provisions; and finally recommendations for columns and bridge piers that do not meet the new requirements. A conclusion was drawn that there is a need for conducting more studies on the realistic performance of Reinforced Concrete (RC) sections and columns. The studies should have included performance of RC members under various loading scenarios, assessment of columns capacity considering confinement effect provided by lateral reinforcement, and investigation on performance of various monotonic and cyclic material models applied to simulate the realistic performance. In the study reported here, monotonic material models, cyclic rules, and plastic hinge models have been utilized in a fiber-based analytical procedure, and validated against experimental data to simulate behavior of RC section under various loading scenarios. Comparison of the analytical predictions and experimental data, through moment-curvature and force-deflection analyses, confirmed the accuracy and validity of the analytical algorithm and models. The performance of RC columns under various axial and lateral loading patterns was assessed in terms of flexural strength and energy dissipation. FRP application to enhance ductility, flexural strength, and shear capacity of existing deficient concrete structures has increased during the last two decades. Therefore, various aspects of FRP-confined concrete members, specifically monotonic and cyclic behavior of concrete members confined and reinforced by FRP, have been studied in many research programs, suggesting various monotonic models for concrete confined by only FRP. Exploration of existing model performances for predicting the behavior of several tested specimens shows a need for improvement of existing algorithms. The model proposed in the current study is a step in this direction. FRP wrapping is typically used to confine existing concrete members containing conventional lateral steel reinforcement (tie/spiral). The confining effect of lateral steel reinforcement in analytical studies has been uniquely considered in various models. Most models consider confinement due to FRP and ignore the effect of conventional lateral steel reinforcement. Exploration of existing model performances for predicting the behavior of several tested specimens confined by both FRP and lateral steel shows a need for improvement of existing algorithms. A model was proposed in this study which is a step in this direction. Performance of the proposed model and four other representative models from literature was compared to experimental data from four independent databases. In order to fulfill the need for a simple, yet accurate analytical tool for performance assessment of RC columns, a computer program was developed that uses relatively simple analytical methods and material models to accurately predict the performance of RC structures under various loading conditions, including cyclic lateral displacement under a non-proportionally variable axial load (Esmaeily and Xiao 2005, Esmaeily and Peterman 2007). However, it was limited to circular, rectangular, and hollow circular/rectangular sections and uniaxial lateral curvature or displacement. In this regards, a computer program was developed which is the next generation of the aforesaid program with additional functionality and options. Triangulation of the section allows opportunity for cross-sectional geometry. Biaxial lateral curvature/displacement/force combined with any sequence of axial load provides opportunity to analyze the performance of a reinforced concrete column under any load and displacement path. Use of unconventional reinforcement, such as FRP, in lateral as well as longitudinal direction is another feature of this application.

Book Design of High Strength Steel Reinforced Concrete Columns

Download or read book Design of High Strength Steel Reinforced Concrete Columns written by Sing-Ping Chiew and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the companion volume to Design Examples for High Strength Steel Reinforced Concrete Columns – A Eurocode 4 Approach. Guidance is much needed on the design of high strength steel reinforced concrete (SRC) columns beyond the remit of Eurocode 4. Given the much narrower range of permitted concrete and steel material strengths in comparison to EC2 and EC3, and the better ductility and buckling resistance of SRC columns compared to steel or reinforced concrete, there is a clear need for design beyond the guidelines. This book looks at the design of SRC columns using high strength concrete, high strength structural steel and high strength reinforcing steel materials – columns with concrete cylinder strength up to 90 N/mm2, yield strength of structural steel up to 690 N/mm2 and yield strength of reinforcing steel up to 600 N/mm2 respectively. The companion volume provides detailed worked examples on use of these high strength materials. This book is written primarily for structural engineers and designers who are familiar with basic EC4 design, and should also be useful to civil engineering undergraduate and graduate students who are studying composite steel concrete design and construction. Equations for design resistances are presented clearly so that they can be easily programmed into design spreadsheets for ease of use.

Book A Study Into the Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Columns Under Fire Exposures Using a Spreadsheet Based Numerical Model

Download or read book A Study Into the Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Columns Under Fire Exposures Using a Spreadsheet Based Numerical Model written by Richard Lawrence Emberley and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Fire is a significant threat to the structural integrity of buildings. Depending on the architecture of the structure and the intensity and duration of the fire event, structural members may lose strength and stiffness eventually leading to collapse whether by flexural buckling or crushing. The focus of this research is on the behavior and fire performance of reinforced-concrete columns under fire conditions. In order to effectively study column performance with differing loading, aggregate and dimensional characteristics under varying time-temperature curves and fire exposures, a numerical model was constructed in Microsoft Excel. The spreadsheet model allowed for complete transparency of the calculations and provided a means to visualize the data in flexible ways. ANSYS and several published column furnace tests were used to benchmark the heat transfer and structural analysis portions of the model. One, three and four-sided fire exposures along with the ASTM E119 fire curve and a natural fire curve were used to study latent heating effects, increasing and decreasing eccentricities, moment magnification, and failure modes. Assessments of column structural capacity were performed in accordance with the provisions of ACI 318. The completed model served as an effective tool for the thesis and is available to help aid students and engineers investigate the design of reinforced concrete columns under fire conditions through integration the heat transfer analyses and the structural evaluations.

Book Comparison Study of Design Reinforced Concrete Column Using BS 8110   EUROCODE 2

Download or read book Comparison Study of Design Reinforced Concrete Column Using BS 8110 EUROCODE 2 written by Salfarina Bahar and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Columns are member that are generally support vertical and resist axial compressive loads. The basic function of a column is to carry axial (vertical) loads in reinforced concrete building frames. In addition to the axial load, however, the columns are required to sustain bending moments induced from the beams. This study is about comparison study which discusses the design of reinforced concrete column based on the most common code practices in Malaysia which are BS 8110 and EUROCODE 2. Each codes practice has their own design and procedures. In order to ease the comparison, analysis was carried out on several design examples using a computer program develops using Microsoft (MS) Excel. In the analysis, several parameters such as design moment, column height and size of column was varied to study the different between BS 8110 and EUROCODE 2. Using the parameters, the reinforcement design can be made after the section area obtained by a calculation. From the result, EC2 are better compared to BS 8110 because EC2 always consider that sway happened to braced structure from the calculations of second order effect whether it is being neglected or not.EC2 also more economic compared to BS 8110 because EC2 produced small moment with same moment.. -Author.
