Book Ultimate Horizontal Shear Strength of Prestressed Split Beams

Download or read book Ultimate Horizontal Shear Strength of Prestressed Split Beams written by S. B. Nosseir and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report deals with the horizontal shear resistance and behavior of prestressed concrete composite beams when the interface is selected to pass through the centroid of the composite section. Composite beams proportioned in this manner are referred to as prestressed split beams. A total of eight simply supported split beams were statically tested with the major variables being interface roughness and reinforcement parameter r fy. (r and fy are the percent and yield point of the web reinforcement across the interface.) All test beams were posttensioned and grouted and had the same nominal dimensions. Beams with rough interfaces showed an increase in the ultimate horizontal shear strength of about 100 psi over that of 'duplicate' beams with smooth interfaces. The ductility and the energy absorption capacity increased with r fy. The ultimate horizontal shear strength for beams with r fy = 0 was in excess of 400 psi and increased at the rate of about 60 psi per 100 psi increase in r fy. The two beams with the highest value of r fy failed in flexure. In spite of developing slip at the interface, these two beams developed the calculated flexural resistance based on full composite action. The horizontal shear resistance of the test beams failing in horizontal shear was much higher than the computed values based on the ACl code. (Author).

Book Strength of Horizontal Shear Reinforcement with Limited Development

Download or read book Strength of Horizontal Shear Reinforcement with Limited Development written by Regina Nyambura Waweru and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order for the composite action between the precast beam and the cast-in-place deck to be effective, sufficient horizontal (interface) shear strength needs to be provided at the interface of the two concrete elements to prevent slip. Horizontal shear strength is provided by three main components: the protrusions on the crack faces (cohesion/aggregate interlock), friction between the faces resulting from the normal compressive stress, and the dowel action of the reinforcing bars. AASHTO LRFD equation assumes that all reinforcement crossing the interface would be fully developed on both sides of the interface at ultimate shear strength. This study examines if adequate horizontal shear capacity is provided by a very short embedded length (approximately 2-in.) commonly used in composite slab and box bridge beams in Texas. A number of component test that included push-off test and bar pullout tests were conducted to evaluate each component of horizontal shear. Seven fullscale composite prestressed bridge beams were tested to evaluate the contribution of dowel action of the reinforcement on horizontal shear capacity. These beams included two beams designed according to the current TxDOT specifications and two beams designed without any horizontal shear reinforcement. The interface area was reduced in the last three full-scale beams so as to force a horizontal shear failure and hence obtain the horizontal shear strength in those specimens. Results revealed that although the component tests show that the interface reinforcement with 2-in. embedded length could not be fully developed, the full-scale tests (with reduced interface area) indicate that the actual boundary conditions in the composite beams could provide abundant confinement to develop the reinforcement. Experimental results show that current AASHTO provisions for horizontal shear in composite concrete beams could over-estimate the horizontal shear contribution from dowel action of the reinforcement and do not represent the true behavior of the horizontal shear resistance mechanism.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 655: Recommended Guide Specification for the Design of Externally Bonded FRP Systems for Repair and Strengthening of Concrete Bridge Elements examines a recommended guide specification for the design of externally bonded Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) systems for the repair and strengthening of concrete bridge elements. The report addresses the design requirements for members subjected to different loading conditions including flexure, shear and torsion, and combined axial force and flexure. The recommended guide specification is supplemented by design examples to illustrate its use for different FRP strengthening applications.
