Download or read book EFFECT OF COMBINED SHEAR BENDING AND LOW AXIAL LOAD ON BEHAVIOR OF CONCRETE BEAMS REINFORCED WITH GLASS FIBER REINFORCED POLYMER BARS written by Senthil Kumar Velkumar and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research's main objective was to investigate the effect of combined bending and shear behavior of the concrete beams reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars subjected to low axial load less than 10% beams axial capacity. Analytical and experimental study was performed for nine full-scale reinforced concrete beam specimens of size 330 x 430 x 3100 mm casted using sand coated GFRP bars with different reinforcement ratios of 1.7, 2.5 and 3.3%. The specimens were tested under four-point bending, and low axial compressive loading was applied at beam both ends. The analytical model was developed using PTC MATHCAD Prime to analyze the beams' behavior, verified by the experimental investigation. The analytical study results of the beam interaction diagram from all cases show that moment carrying capacity of the beams typically decreases by adding axial load in the range of 2.0 to 4.0% of the axial capacity of the sections.

Book Effect of Flexural NSM FRP Bars on the Shear Strength of Reinforced Concrete Beams

Download or read book Effect of Flexural NSM FRP Bars on the Shear Strength of Reinforced Concrete Beams written by Rayyan Bashar Saleh and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) members in flexure and shear, using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) laminates and near surface mounted (NSM) bars has been developed over the last few decades. Conventionally, FRP composite laminates are attached to the vertical sides of RC beams to increase their shear strength. However, in some cases, the sides of the beam might be inaccessible or shallow. According to the ACI 318-14 guidelines and other codes of practice, longitudinal reinforcement contributes to the shear strength of RC beams. The objective of this study is to assess experimentally the effect of longitudinal NSM bars, which are mounted to the beam’s sides, on the shear strength of RC beams. The variables of the experimental program included the beam’s depth to evaluate the size effect, the concrete compressive strength, and the flexural FRP reinforcement ratio. A total of 18 shear deficient RC beams were built, strengthened with longitudinal NSM bars, and tested under three-point bending until failure. It was observed that the strengthened beam specimens exhibited an increase in shear capacity that ranged from 10 to 35% over the control beams. It was also observed that the increase in the concrete shear strength with longitudinal FRP bars for the high strength concrete specimens was not as effective as that with normal concrete strength specimens. The results have also revealed that the size effect phenomena has a significant effect on the test results, in which the increase in shear strength has decreased from around 35% to 10%, with the increase of beam's height from 230 to 650 mm, respectively. It was concluded that equation 22.5.5.1 of the ACI 318-14 code, which gives a simplified expression for the concrete contribution to the shear strength of beams, is not conservative for beams with large depths. Thus, other published analytical shear strength models that account for size effect were utilized in this study to predict the strength of the tested specimens. This study utilized 10 different analytical models in predicting the shear strength of the tested RC beam specimens. The models that showed the closest agreement with the tested data were the University of Houston method and the model based on the second order simplified modified compression field theory. It can be concluded that flexural longitudinal NSM bars could be used as a viable solution to enhance the shear strength of RC beams."--Abstract.

Book Shear Response and Bending Fatigue Behavior of Concrete filled Fiber Reinforced Polymer Tubes

Download or read book Shear Response and Bending Fatigue Behavior of Concrete filled Fiber Reinforced Polymer Tubes written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent field applications and research findings have demonstrated the effectiveness of concrete-filled fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes (CFFT) as an efficient and promising hybrid system for designing main components such as pier columns, girders and piles for a bridge system. The vision was to provide a cost-competitive unified system composed of FRP/concrete hybrid members, which may act as a viable alternative to conventional reinforced and prestressed concrete structural systems. To achieve their broad-based implementation in civil infrastructure, understanding of their behavior and developing analytical tools under full spectrum of primary and secondary load demands are essential. Response characterizations under primary load demands namely, axial compression, flexural and axial-flexural, and seismic loadings have already been reported. However, investigations under primary shear and secondary fatigue load demands remain to be addressed. The present study consists of two phases. In the first phase, an experimental and analytical investigation was undertaken to characterize the behavior of a CFFT beam. Study on shear was primarily focused on the deep beam behavior. Comparisons of behavior of deep, short and slender beams were also highlighted. A strut-and-tie model approach, pertinent to analysis of deep reinforced and prestressed concrete members, was proposed to predict the shear strength of deep CFFT beams. Prediction showed good agreement with test results. It was concluded that shear failure mode is only critical for beams with shear span less than their depth. In the second phase, a detailed study on flexural fatigue behavior and modeling was undertaken. The main objective was to evaluate the performance of beams under four basic criteria; i) damage accumulation ii) stiffness degradation, iii) number of cycles to failure, and iv) reserve bending strength. Effects of laminate fiber architecture, reinforcement index, load range, and end restraint on the.
