Book excerpt: Fibre reinforced plastics are increasingly being used as replacements for steel reinforcement in concrete structures. The reinforcement can be untensioned, or it can be in the form of prestressing tendons. It is also suitable for gluing onto the outside of a structure to improve flexural or shear performance. This book provides up-to-date research results to give engineers confidence in their design methods.

Download or read book Fiber Reinforced Plastic FRP Reinforcement for Concrete Structures written by David A. Hensher and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-01-22 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) composites for prestressed and non-prestressed concrete reinforcement has developed into a technology with serious and substantial claims for the advancement of construction materials and methods. Research and development is now occurring worldwide. The 20 papers in this volume make a further contribution in advancing knowledge and acceptance of FRP composites for concrete reinforcement. The articles are divided into three parts. Part I introduces FRP reinforcement for concrete structures and describes general material properties and manufacturing methods. Part II covers a three-continent perspective of current R&D, design and code implementations, and technical organizations' activities. Part III presents an in-depth description of commercially-available products, construction methods, and applications. The work is intended for engineers, researchers, and developers with the objective of presenting them with a world-wide cross-section of initiatives, representative products and significant applications.

Download or read book Strengthening of Concrete Beams by External Prestressing written by Iyad Abdurrahman Wehbe and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of external prestressing tendons as a means of strengthening or upgrading concrete flexural members was experimentally investigated. A total of 16 beam spec imens were tested. Each spec imen was first subjected to an amplitude fatigue loading at a constant load range varying between Pmin {Dead load) and Pmax (Dead load + excessive Live load) equal about 30* and 80* of the calculated nominal flexural resistance respectively. The spec imens were then externally prestressed while loaded with Pmin and subjected to monotonically increasing load to failure. Due to external prestressing, the induced fatigue deflections of the specimens were reduced by up to 75*, and the nominal flexural strengths were increased by up to 146*. External tendons with harped profile were relatively more effective in increasing the flexural strength as compared to tendons with straight horizontal profile. The stress ranges and mean stress levels in the Internal tension reinforcement were reduced considerably which imply a significant improvement in the fatigue life of the strengthened spec imens. The stress in the external prestressing steel at nominal flexural strength can be safely predicted using ACI code Eq. 18-4 proposed for internal unbonded tendons. Also, with slight modification to Eq. 18-3 of the ACI Building code to account for external tendons, the stress in the internal prestressing steel and the nominal flexural strength of concrete members strengthened using additional external tendons can be predicted using ACI code 318-89 procedure with reasonable accuracy.
