Book excerpt: Dear Colleagues, We are pleased to organize the Sixth International RILEM Symposium on SCC and the Fourth North-American Conference on the Design and Use of SCC, held on Sept 26-29, 2010 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The RILEM series of symposia started in 1999 in Stockholm, followed by Tokyo in 2001, Reykjavik in 2003, Chicago in 2005, and Ghent in 2007 with a steadily increasing number of papers, participants, and interest from across the globe. Due to the growing success of SCC, regional conferences have been organized, such as the North-American Conference on the Design and Use of SCC held in Chicago in 2002, 2005, and 2008; the International Symposium on Design, Performance and Use of SCC held nd in Changsa, China in 2005 and in Beijing, China in 2009; as well as the 2 International Conference on Advances in Concrete Technology in the Middle East: SCC held in Abu Dhabi in 2009. It can be concluded that these regional Conferences and Symposia were highly successful and reached a far more international audience than anticipated. Nearly 100 papers were submitted for these proceedings from which the International Scientific Committee selected 37 contributions covering a wide range of timely and original subjects from around the world. We would like to acknowledge the input of the International Scientific Committee for providing critical input to guarantee high quality of these peer-reviewed proceedings. We invite you to explore a wealth of information in the electronic proceedings.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 1094 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research focuses on improving our understanding of the behaviour of large, lightly-reinforced concrete beams and one-way slabs subjected to shear. Empirically-based shear design methods, particularly those in the widely-used American Concrete Institute design code for concrete structures (ACI-318) do not accurately predict the behaviour of these important structural elements, and may produce unsafe designs in certain situations. Furthermore, the research community has not reached consensus on the exact mechanisms of shear transfer in reinforced concrete. This has slowed the replacement of empirically-based methods with rational methods based on modern theories of the shear behaviour of reinforced concrete. Shear failures in reinforced concrete are brittle and sudden, and typically occur with little or no warning. Furthermore, they are difficult to predict due to complex failure mechanisms. It is critical, therefore, that shear design methods for reinforced concrete be accurate, rational and theoretically sound. An extensive experimental program consisting of load-testing thirty-seven large-scale reinforced concrete beams and slabs has been performed. The results conclusively show that the ACI shear design method can produce dangerously unsafe designs for thick concrete flexural elements constructed without transverse reinforcement. However, safe predictions of the failure loads of small-scale elements are produced. It is shown that the ACI design method does not account for the size-effect in shear, in which the shear stress causing failure decreases as the beam depth increases. Detailed measurements of flexural and shear stresses in the experimental specimens indicated that aggregate interlock is the primary mechanism of shear transfer in slender, lightly-reinforced concrete beams. It is also shown that the size-effect can be explained by reduced aggregate interlock capacity in members with widely spaced cracks. Digital three-dimensional topographical maps of the surfaces of failure shear cracks were constructed by scanning the surfaces with a laser profilometer. It was shown that concrete made with larger aggregate produced rougher cracks with a higher aggregate interlock capacity. The shear strength of reinforced concrete is therefore directly related to the roughness of failure shear cracks, and by extension the aggregate size, since larger aggregates produce cracks with larger asperities with improved aggregate-interlock capacity. Acoustic-emission monitoring techniques were employed to characterize fracturing in large concrete beams. Extensive studies on the ACI 318-05 requirements for crack control steel show that they do not adequately prevent the formation of wide cracks, as they do not require a minimum bar diameter for crack control reinforcement. It is shown that the ACI 318-05 requirements for crack control steel were based partly on questionable interpretations of published experimental studies on crack widths in large beams. Various methods to eliminate the size effect in shear are explored, including the use of stirrups or longitudinal reinforcement distributed over the beam height. Beam/slab width is shown to have no effect on failure shear stress. It is concluded that the ACI shear design method should be replaced with a rational, theoretically-sound shear design method. Modifications to Canadian shear design methods are recommended.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concrete is the most used man-made material in the world since its invention. The widespread use of this material has led to continuous developments such as ultra-high strength concrete and self-compacting concrete. Recycled Aggregate in Concrete: Use of Industrial, Construction and Demolition Waste focuses on the recent development which the use of various types of recycled waste materials as aggregate in the production of various types of concrete. By drawing together information and data from various fields and sources, Recycled Aggregate in Concrete: Use of Industrial, Construction and Demolition Waste provides full coverage of this subject. Divided into two parts, a compilation of varied literature data related to the use of various types of industrial waste as aggregates in concrete is followed by a discussion of the use of construction and demolition waste as aggregate in concrete. The properties of the aggregates and their effect on various concrete properties are presented, and the quantitative procedure to estimate the properties of concrete containing construction and demolition waste as aggregates is explained. Current codes and practices developed in various countries to use construction and demolition waste as aggregates in concrete and issues related to the sustainability of cement and concrete production are also discussed. The comprehensive information presented in Recycled Aggregate in Concrete: Use of Industrial, Construction and Demolition Waste will be helpful to graduate students, researchers and concrete technologists. The collected data will also be an essential reference for practicing engineers who face problems concerning the use of these materials in concrete production.

Download or read book Experimental and Theoretical Investigation on the Shear Behaviour of High Strength Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Digital Image Correlation written by Touhami Tahenni and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this chapter an experimental investigation is carried out on high strength concrete beams without transverse reinforcement and with transverse reinforcement. The beams were tested in bending under two concentrated loads using the technique of digital image correlation. In the test setup, the shear zone which is defined by the area of beam between the support point and the loading point was studied by the camera of high resolution. The Gom-Aramis software was used to record and analyse the numerical images by determination of the deformation of concrete in the compressed zone of the beam, to calculate the opening, the spacing and the length of the diagonal cracks. The experimental shear strength of the beams was compared with the theoretical values predicted by the different design codes, such as the American ACI 318, the British Standard BS 8110, the European Eurocode 2, the New Zealand NZS 3101 and the Indian Standard IS456. The results show that all the design codes underestimate the contribution of high strength concrete to the shear resistance of reinforced concrete beams, and greatly overestimate the contribution of transverse reinforcement. The European Eurocode 2 is the only one among the four code models that gives the best prediction of the ultimate shear strength of high strength concrete.
