This book was released on 2019-07-12 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The situation of high compressive load transmitted onto limited area of concrete member occurs frequently in a variety of industrial and engineering structures. Hence, numerous investigations have been conducted in the past to study the behavior of concrete under such loading, but mostly of plain and conventionally reinforced concretes. With the increasingly widespread use of steel fibers in the field of structural application, it is therefore of great interest to investigate the performance of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) subjected to concentrated load. The objective of the present PhD thesis was to characterize the load-bearing and fracture behavior of SFRC under concentrated loading (i.e. point loading) by means of experimental approach. Based on the experimental results, it can be concluded that the presence of steel fibers substantially improved the load-bearing behavior of concrete under concentrated load and changed the failure mode of concrete from a brittle to a ductile one. The findings acquired here can be used as fundamental information for the composition and optimization of SFRC mixtures, the production of SFRC concrete elements as well as for the constructive design and practical application of SFRC structural members exposed to concentrated load.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 23 (thesis year 1978) a total of 10,148 theses titles from 27 Canadian and 220 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 23 reports these submitted in 1978, on occasion, certain universities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dissertation, the application of steel fiber reinforced self-consolidating concrete (SFRSCC) to precast unbonded post-tensioned segmental bridge columns in moderate-to-high seismic regions is evaluated numerically and experimentally. Drop weight impact tests are first conducted on plain concrete and steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC). The standard drop test recommended by the American Concrete Institute (ACI) is first conducted and a modification to this standard ACI, which involves visual inspection of first cracking and ultimate failure, is then developed. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) test along with fitted normal and lognormal distributions are used to examine the distribution of the number of blows required to cause first cracking and ultimate failure of the concrete. The minimum sample size required to calculate the impact strength of SFRC is determined using equations available in the literature. This sample size is used in the subsequent impact study on SFRSCC specimens. The static and dynamic properties of ten groups of SFRSCC, including one group of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) without steel fibers, are studied and compared. Dramix℗ʼ ZP305, RC-65/35-BN, and RC-80/30-BP steel fiber (glued and hooked end) at a volume of 0. 25%, 0. 5% and 1% are considered in the study. The static properties are calculated using compression tests, split-tension tests and flexural beam tests. The dynamic properties are determined using the modified ACI impact test. A dynamic load sensor is installed underneath the base plate of the impact test machine to measure the relative reaction force history. The recorded reaction forces are used to develop an automated impact test method, which can circumvent visual inspections. Two large-scale (1:3. 37), precast, unbonded and post-tensioned segmental columns, one constructed with SCC and one constructed with SFRSCC (with 0. 5% of ZP305 steel fiber by volume), are tested under cyclic loading. These segmental columns incorporate shear keys at the joints. The backbone force-displacement relationships of the segmental columns are calculated from a pushover model available in the literature. The hysteretic behavior of the segmental columns under cyclic loading is also simulated by a numerical model developed on the OpenSEES platform. A single span, large-scale (1:3. 37) bridge model incorporating SFRSCC segmental columns (with 0. 5% of ZP305 steel fiber by volume) is tested on a shake table. Two types of cap beam-to-superstructure connections are considered for the bridge model: a connection using non-seismic rubber bearing and a fixed connection. The bridge model is tested for far field and near field ground motions along various directions and with increasing peak ground accelerations (PGAs). The evolution of the cumulative damage to the bridge model after each seismic test is evaluated through a system identification involving white noise excitation. A flag-shaped hysteretic model is proposed and validated through the cyclic test results obtained in this research and those available in the literature. The proposed flag-shaped model is used to predict the seismic response of the bridge model. Adding steel fibers to concrete significantly improves its impact strength and ductility. The SFRSCC segmental columns suffered less damage than the SCC columns for the same level of drift. The large-scale bridge model incorporating SFRSCC segmental columns sustained high intensity far field and near field ground motions with limited damage. The proposed flag-shaped hysteretic model can be used to simulate the cyclic behavior of segmental columns, and to provide reasonable estimates of their seismic response under strong ground motions.

This book was released on 2010-12-06 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strain-Hardening Fibre-Reinforced Cement-Based Composites (SHCC) were named after their ability to resist increased tensile force after crack formation, over a significant tensile deformation range. The increased resistance is achieved through effective crack bridging by fibres, across multiple cracks of widths in the micro-range. Whether these small crack widths are maintained under sustained, cyclic or other load paths, and whether the crack width limitation translates into durability through retardation of ingress of moisture, gas and other deleterious matter, are scrutinized in this book by evaluation of test results from several laboratories internationally. The durability of SHCC under mechanical, chemical, thermal and combined actions is considered, both for the composite and the fibre types typically used in SHCC. The compilation of this state-of-the-art report has been an activity of the RILEM TC 208-HFC, Subcommittee 2: Durability, during the committee life 2005-2009.
