Book Bond Behaviour of Fibre Reinforced Polymer  FRP  Rebars in Concrete

Download or read book Bond Behaviour of Fibre Reinforced Polymer FRP Rebars in Concrete written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars have been extensively used in construction instead of steel rebars due to their non-corrosive nature and high tensile strength. Bond between FRP rebars and concrete is a critical design parameter that controls the performance of reinforced concrete members at serviceability and ultimate limit states. In order to prevent a bond failure, an adequate anchorage length should be provided. The anchorage length is derived using a bond stress-slip () constitutive law. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of different parameters such as the type of fibre, the rebar surface and the confinement provided by the transverse reinforcement on the bond behaviour of FRP rebars in concrete. Based on the analysis, a generalized bond stress-slip relationship will be developed and a new design equation for the required anchorage length of FRP rebar in concrete will be derived. A database was created on the bond stress-slip behaviour of FRP rebars in concrete from the available literature up to 2009. The data was statistically analyzed to investigate the effect of the different parameters on the bond performance of FRP rebars. It was observed that an increase in the confinement provided by the transverse reinforcement increased the bond strength of FRP rebars in concrete. This signifies that the presence of transverse reinforcement affects the bond behaviour of FRP rebars in concrete and hence, it should be taken into consideration while developing design equations for FRP rebars. Type of fibre and rebar surface does not affect the bond stress, but the latter affects the slip corresponding to the peak bond stress. Based on the results, a nonlinear regression analysis was performed to develop the bond stress-slip model for splitting mode of failure and a design equation for determining the development length of the FRP rebars in concrete was derived. The proposed development length equation can save about 10%-15% of the d.

Book Local Bond Stress slip Relationship of Reinforcing Bars Embedded in Fiber Reinforced Concrete Under Splitting Type Failure

Download or read book Local Bond Stress slip Relationship of Reinforcing Bars Embedded in Fiber Reinforced Concrete Under Splitting Type Failure written by Walid Jalkh and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study summarizes experimental results of the local bond stress-slip response of reinforcing bars embedded in fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) under splitting type failure. Pullout specimens were tested to study the effect of several parameters, namely, type, volume fraction, and aspect ratio of fibers, concrete cover to reinforcing bars (or splitting area surrounding the reinforcing bar), and size of reinforcing bar. The experimental results showed that the major contribution of fibers is in the post-splitting range. As compared to plain concrete, the bond behavior of fiber reinforced concrete is more ductile inasmuch as the post-splitting bond stresses are increased. This increase is function of the fiber reinforcing index and of the fiber bond characteristics. The results from the current study were combined with other results reported in technical literature and used to develop a model to describe the bond stress-slip relationship of reinforcing bars embedded in plain and FRC under splitting type failure. The model accounts for all of the important parameters that tend to influence the bond characteristics of reinforcing bar3 as observed in the experiment. It should be mentioned that this study consists the second pact of a two-phase experimental program dealing with the local bond stress-slip characteristics of reinforcing bars embedded in fiber reinforced concrete. While this current phase concentrates on the splitting type of failure, the first part of the study (Ref. 4) emphasized pullout failure.

Book Bond Strength Investigations and Structural Applicability of Composite Fiber reinforced Polymer  FRP  Rebars

Download or read book Bond Strength Investigations and Structural Applicability of Composite Fiber reinforced Polymer FRP Rebars written by Damian I. Kachlakev and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The composite FRP rebars research at Oregon State University was initiated in 1993 principally to develop a non-metallic hollow reinforcement. It was recognized that the tensile properties of such reinforcement are unquestionably superior to steel, but its performance in concrete could be problematic. The bond between FRP rebars and concrete was identified as a critical area of concern. The purpose of this study is (i) to analyze a variety of FRP and steel reinforcing units; (ii) to advance the knowledge of bond mechanism, failure modes, and parameters influencing the bond strength; (iii) to compare composite rebars to conventional steel and to assess their applicability as reinforcing members. Commercially available FRP rebars were investigated. Particular emphasis was given to a hollow glass FRP rod designed at Oregon State University. Several parameters were investigated, including: failure mode, concrete compressive strength, rebar diameter and circumference/cross section ratio, embedment length, concrete cover, and microstructure of the composite rebars. It was recognized that the ASTM C234-90 pull-out standard is test of concrete strength. Therefore a modified pull-out test was developed for evaluating the bond strength behavior. A newly developed European bond test procedure was compared with locally modified version of the pull-out method. The new procedure was used for the first time in the United States. The study demonstrated a phenomenon, not reported in the published research at this time, defined as a size effect. The size effects result in lower bond strength with increasing area of the interface between FRP bars and concrete. The next phase of the research was dedicated to the hollow glass FRP rebar. The goal was to compare its bond properties to conventional steel and solid FRP bars. The study led to two new phenomena not described in the literature previously. Results showed that the concrete compressive strength does not significantly affect the bond strength. This observation was in contradiction with the bond strength theory which considers the concrete strength as major variable. The second observation revealed significant difference in bond performance between bars with different microstructures. It is recommended that microstructure of the FRP bars be considered as a variable when investigating bond strength.

Book Bond of Reinforcemen Under Controlled Confinement

Download or read book Bond of Reinforcemen Under Controlled Confinement written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twelve specimens were tested to determine the local bond stress-slip characteristics of a No. 6 rebar embedded in a 3-inch diameter concrete cylinder. Radial confining stress around the concrete specimen and radial deformation were assumed to be fundamental variables, together with bond stress and slip, needed to properly describe the interface behavior. Configuration independent bond stress-slip, relationships for a short five-lug embedded length were obtained for various degrees of confining pressure. Maximum bond stresses could be increased almost threefold by increasing the confining stress from 500 to 4500 psi at the bar level. Two types of No. 6 bars with different deformations were investigated. In many reinforced concrete structures, the mode of failure is tensile cracking of the concrete. Where it is important to predict failure or severe damage, proper representation of bond is crucial. Principal gain from inclusion of actual bond-slip properties in the interface between steel rebar and concrete is a realistic prediction of cracking. The spacing, width, and extent of cracks in reinforced concrete are dependent on the assumed bond-slip characteristics. Critical Navy reinforced concrete structures, such as missile test cells and graving drydocks, are designed to withstand large deformations under severe blast and strong-motion earthquake loads. The development of design criteria for these structures requires evaluation of their response where severe deterioration of steel concrete interfaces takes place.
