Book The Inelastic Behavior of Flexural Members Fabricated from High Performance Steel

Download or read book The Inelastic Behavior of Flexural Members Fabricated from High Performance Steel written by Perry Stanton Green and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 1378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research focuses on the inelastic behavior of structural steel members fabricated from a high-strength steel, HSLA-80. This steel is considered to be in a class of new high performance steels (HPS) which have exceptional toughness and weldability characteristics. These features make the material appealing for use in new structural design applications, especially those in seismic regions. The research experimentally and analytically quantifies the structural ductility of high performance steel (HSLA-80) and typical mild steel (A36) I-shaped flexural members and relates the experimental and analytical results to the existing AISC-LRFD specifications for flexural members.

Book Behavior  Modeling  and Impact of Bond in Steel Reinforced High performance Fiber reinforced Cement based Composites

Download or read book Behavior Modeling and Impact of Bond in Steel Reinforced High performance Fiber reinforced Cement based Composites written by Matthew J. Bandelt and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High-performance fiber-reinforced cement-based composites (HPFRCCs) are a class of cement-based materials that exhibit a psuedo strain-hardening behavior in uniaxial tension after first cracking, and retain residual strength in compression after crushing. The unique mechanical properties of HPFRCCs have led researchers to investigate their use in structural applications where damage tolerance and energy dissipation is needed. Research on structural applications of steel reinforced HPFRCCs members has shown enhanced damage tolerance, shear capacity, flexural strength, inelastic deformation capacity, and life cycle performance. Recent research has focused on the interaction between mild steel reinforcement and HPFRCCs for modeling and design purposes. When reinforced HPFRCCs have been subjected to direct tension, early strain hardening and reinforcement strain localization have been observed caused by short debonded lengths, as opposed to long debonded lengths in traditional reinforced concrete. Short debonded lengths caused the HPFRCC reinforcement to fracture at lower levels of specimen deformation compared to reinforced concrete. This recent research indicates that bond strength between reinforcement and HPFRCCs may be higher than that of traditional reinforced concrete. Additionally, reinforcement tensile strains may be an important consideration for design and modeling of reinforced HPFRCC structural components. In this dissertation, the bond behavior between steel reinforcement and HPFRCCs is presented through experimental testing and numerical simulations. Bond experiments were conducted under monotonic and cyclic loading conditions where the HPFRCC material surrounding the reinforcement was in a flexural tension stress state. Monotonic test results show that bond strengths are 37% higher, on average, in reinforced HPFRCCs than in reinforced concrete. Additionally, bond-slip toughness (i.e., the area under the bond stress versus reinforcement slip curve) is higher in reinforced HPFRCCs than in reinforced concrete. Cyclic bond-slip experiments were performed for two types of HPFRCCs and compared to monotonic behavior using beam-end specimens. Results show that bond deterioration occurs in HPFRCCs after the maximum bond stress is reached, causing bond stress to reduce by 60%, on average. The loss of bond capacity and bond-slip toughness is due to combined crushing and splitting of the interface. The effects of bond on structural performance are examined through a study on monotonic and cyclic performance of reinforced HPFRCC beam specimens with varying reinforcement ratios. It is shown that cyclic deformation histories can decrease deformation capacity by up to 67%. Unlike traditional reinforced concrete, deformation capacity of reinforced HPFRCCs is shown to increase with increasing longitudinal reinforcement ratio. Results show that the difference between monotonic and cyclic deformation capacity becomes smaller as reinforcement ratio increases. Suggestions are made for providing a moderate amount of reinforcement to take full of advantage of the HPFRCC material toughness and improve structural performance and deformation capacity. An interface bond-slip material model is proposed based on the experimental results to model the interaction between steel reinforcement and HPFRCC materials. Simulations with the proposed interface model are compared with perfect bond models in finite element simulations by comparing numerical and experimental responses of reinforced HPFRCC structural members. Simulations are conducted on reinforced HPFRCC components under monotonic and cyclic deformation histories, and on members with varying reinforcement ratios. Including the proposed interface material model reduces variability in simulated deformation capacity, and leads to a consistent response in terms of cracking patterns and deformation capacity. A methodology is proposed to predict reinforced HPFRCC deformation capacity by examining reinforcement strains, modeling the interface conditions, and implementing a cyclic fracture energy material parameter from test data. The dissertation concludes with suggestions for future research that can extend the work presented herein. Suggestions for future work include additional experimental, numerical, and design-related research.

Book Investigation of the Rotation Capacity and Flexural Strength of Web tapered Hybrid High Strength Steel I beams

This book was released on 2021 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the behavior of structural steel in terms of fabrication and fashioning is an important factor in the designing of steel structures. The search for structural steel with capabilities of acceptable responses in seismic regions alongside beneficial features such as cost, and efficiency has led to the investigation of the behavior of high strength steels (HSS). These steels have yield strength of 55 ksi (ASTM A572) or higher, as classified by U.S. standards, while their inelastic capacity is less than that of conventional structural steel. The present research investigates the rotation capacity and flexural strength of hybrid high strength web-tapered I-shaped steel beam using an experimentally verified nonlinear finite element modeling technique. The academic multipurpose software package ANSYS19.2 is used to develop a shell finite element model, after the validation using an experimental specimen from a previous study was modeled and validated. The residual stresses are associated with the finite element model for different welding configurations. Geometrical imperfections are applied to conduct a linear eigenvalue analysis and to capture buckling mode shapes to perform a nonlinear buckling analysis. The aim is to capture local, overall, and local-overall interactive buckling modes of non-prismatic hybrid high strength I-sections. A comprehensive parametric study is performed by varying the cross-section dimension, flange and web slenderness ratio, and grade of steel for flange and web to cover a wide range of parameters to identify the correlation between slenderness, ductility, and member resistance. The results will be used to propose design equations that could be used in the direct computation of desired parameters in the design of web variable hybrid and homogeneous members during structural designing.
