Book Local Bond Stress slip Behavior of Reinforcing Bars Embedded in Fiber Reinforced Concrete

Download or read book Local Bond Stress slip Behavior of Reinforcing Bars Embedded in Fiber Reinforced Concrete written by Marwan Mohamed Hout and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study summarizes experimental results of the local bond stress-slip relationship of reinforcing bars embedded in fiber reinforced concrete (FRC). More than 70 bond specimens were tested and the effect of several parameters on the local bond stress-slip behavior was investigated. These include, size of reinforcing bar (#6 and #8); type of fibers (hooked steel, polypropylene); volume fraction of fibers Vf (between 0.9% and 1.4ft for the steel fibers, 1.5% for the polypropylene fibers); type of specimen (pullout, beam); and confinement (confined, unconfined). Whereas the primary emphasis was on the monotonic local bond stres3-slip response, some specimens were tested under large slip reversals to study the effect of fibers on the cyclic bond stress-slip behavior. The results showed that the addition of fibers to concrete matrixes improves the bond characteristics of ordinary reinforcing bar3. For specimens in which bond failure was by pull-out, adding steel fibers in 2% by volume fraction increased the maximum local bond resistance by about 15%. However, the intrinsic shape of the local bond stre33-slip behavior does not change in comparison with conventional concrete. Furthermore, the addition of fibers to concrete matrixes does not seem to influence the stiffness degradation characteristics of the local bond stress-slip response under cyclic 1oading compared to conventiona1 confined concrete reported in technical literature.

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 Behaviour of Steel Reinforcing Bars Embedded in Ultra High Performance Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete

Download or read book Bond Behaviour of Steel Reinforcing Bars Embedded in Ultra High Performance Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete written by Elisabeth Rita Saikali and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultra-High-Performance Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHP-SFRC) is an emerging concrete considered as an optimal, durable material that can substitute conventional concrete owing to its distinct fresh and hardened properties. Thus, it is essential to understand the mechanism of stress transfer between this concrete and conventional reinforcement that permits the composite action of both materials. A four-point bending test program (FPBT) was arranged and conducted on 19 beams designed for the bond development to occur in the constant moment region along a short embedment length in order to achieve a uniform distribution of bond stresses, enabling measurement of bond strength through reverse engineering of beam strength and deformation. Additional material testing was conducted on prisms under 4-point loading in order to extract the mechanical properties for all material mixes considered. The bond-specimens failed either by pullout or by cone formation with minimal deterioration of the concrete cover, illustrating the high confinement provided by the novel concrete surrounding the bar in tension. The bond strength was determined to be directly proportional to the tensile strength capacity of the design mix, where for the strongest material the bond strength was approximately 30 MPa. Moreover, the test results indicated a very ductile flexural beam response accompanied by significant mid-span deflection reaching 27 mm and substantial bar-slip values attaining 19 mm. Different UHP-SFRC mixes, concrete covers, and embedment lengths were considered. A numerical model was developed to simulate the FPBT using a nonlinear finite element analysis platform, VecTor2, with the ability to model this novel concrete. This high bond strength provided by the concrete cover enables a significant reduction in the design development length as compared to what is used today for conventional concrete.

Book Investigation of the Bond Behavior of Steel Reinforcement Bars Embedded in Ultra High Performance Concrete Under Static Loads Using Finite Element Modeling

Download or read book Investigation of the Bond Behavior of Steel Reinforcement Bars Embedded in Ultra High Performance Concrete Under Static Loads Using Finite Element Modeling written by Manish Roy and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bond properties of reinforcement bars (rebar) embedded in concrete depends on the tensile behavior of the surrounding material and its capability of resisting micro cracks. Since the tensile behavior of Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) is dominated by the amount and the orientation of fibers as well as the type of fibers, an effort has been made in this study to investigate the influence of the fiber volume fraction () and the fiber orientation on the bond behavior of steel rebar embedded in UHPC under a static loading condition using finite element simulation. Owing to the inclusion of discrete fibers, the characteristic of UHPC is highly anisotropic even at a macro level and it is important that the material model of UHPC captures that anisotropy properly. While modeling fibers discretely is time consuming and involves a lot of computational power, the present study proposes a computationally efficient way of modeling UHPC. In this approach, UHPC is considered as a composite material with the matrix modeled as a homogeneous material and the fibers modeled as smeared reinforcement. The directional vector of the smeared reinforcement represents the orientation of the fibers inside the matrix. ATENA, a finite element program, is used for this purpose. The material properties of the fibers are calibrated using the stress-stain data obtained from uniaxial direct tensile tests of UHPC. The calibrated fiber properties are then used to model pullout tests of a rebar embedded in UHPC. The bond stress versus slip properties of the rebar are validated with the experimental pullout test results. The calibrated rebar properties along with the fiber properties are then used to model uniaxial direct tensile tests of UHPC with embedded rebar. Once the tensile test model of the composite is validated using the experimental data, parametric studies are conducted to determine the effect of and fiber orientation on the uniaxial tensile behavior of rebar-reinforced UHPC. Based on the parametric studies, the dependence of the structural ductility on is discussed and a recommendation for the minimum strain to attain ductility is made.

Book Bond Tests of Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic Bars in Concrete

Download or read book Bond Tests of Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic Bars in Concrete written by J. Larralde and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) bars for concrete reinforcement have been commercially available for several years. The main advantage of such bar relative to the conventional steel reinforcing bars is their resistance to corrosion. The reinforced plastic bars are slightly different from the conventional steel bars both geometrically and mechanically. Thus, research is needed to understand their behavior and to be able to use them in concrete reinforcement with adequate reliability. Bond strength of reinforced plastic bars in concrete is one of the mechanical and behavioral differences with the steel bars. This paper presents the results of pullout and beam tests conducted to determine the bond stress-slip behavior of FRP bars in concrete.
