This book was released on 2013-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, a method to predict the bond strength of FRP rebar in concrete by using the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was developed based on the inadequacy of appropriate methods dealing with bond strength. ANN was implemented to understand the complex nonlinear relationship between the inputs (bar diameter, embedment length, and strength of concrete) and the output (bond strength). The training and validation of the bond strength show the good linear relationship between ANN predicted and experimental values. It revealed the fact that surface geometry of FRP rebar highly affects the bond strength. Another important part of the project was the finite element analysis of the bond strength. A 3D finite element model was developed to simulate the bond behaviour that exists between concrete and FRP using Abaqus software. The friction was used to simulate the bond phenomenon between surface of rebar and surface of concrete in pull-out test specimen model.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars have been extensively used in construction instead of steel rebars due to their non-corrosive nature and high tensile strength. Bond between FRP rebars and concrete is a critical design parameter that controls the performance of reinforced concrete members at serviceability and ultimate limit states. In order to prevent a bond failure, an adequate anchorage length should be provided. The anchorage length is derived using a bond stress-slip () constitutive law. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of different parameters such as the type of fibre, the rebar surface and the confinement provided by the transverse reinforcement on the bond behaviour of FRP rebars in concrete. Based on the analysis, a generalized bond stress-slip relationship will be developed and a new design equation for the required anchorage length of FRP rebar in concrete will be derived. A database was created on the bond stress-slip behaviour of FRP rebars in concrete from the available literature up to 2009. The data was statistically analyzed to investigate the effect of the different parameters on the bond performance of FRP rebars. It was observed that an increase in the confinement provided by the transverse reinforcement increased the bond strength of FRP rebars in concrete. This signifies that the presence of transverse reinforcement affects the bond behaviour of FRP rebars in concrete and hence, it should be taken into consideration while developing design equations for FRP rebars. Type of fibre and rebar surface does not affect the bond stress, but the latter affects the slip corresponding to the peak bond stress. Based on the results, a nonlinear regression analysis was performed to develop the bond stress-slip model for splitting mode of failure and a design equation for determining the development length of the FRP rebars in concrete was derived. The proposed development length equation can save about 10%-15% of the d.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The composite FRP rebars research at Oregon State University was initiated in 1993 principally to develop a non-metallic hollow reinforcement. It was recognized that the tensile properties of such reinforcement are unquestionably superior to steel, but its performance in concrete could be problematic. The bond between FRP rebars and concrete was identified as a critical area of concern. The purpose of this study is (i) to analyze a variety of FRP and steel reinforcing units; (ii) to advance the knowledge of bond mechanism, failure modes, and parameters influencing the bond strength; (iii) to compare composite rebars to conventional steel and to assess their applicability as reinforcing members. Commercially available FRP rebars were investigated. Particular emphasis was given to a hollow glass FRP rod designed at Oregon State University. Several parameters were investigated, including: failure mode, concrete compressive strength, rebar diameter and circumference/cross section ratio, embedment length, concrete cover, and microstructure of the composite rebars. It was recognized that the ASTM C234-90 pull-out standard is test of concrete strength. Therefore a modified pull-out test was developed for evaluating the bond strength behavior. A newly developed European bond test procedure was compared with locally modified version of the pull-out method. The new procedure was used for the first time in the United States. The study demonstrated a phenomenon, not reported in the published research at this time, defined as a size effect. The size effects result in lower bond strength with increasing area of the interface between FRP bars and concrete. The next phase of the research was dedicated to the hollow glass FRP rebar. The goal was to compare its bond properties to conventional steel and solid FRP bars. The study led to two new phenomena not described in the literature previously. Results showed that the concrete compressive strength does not significantly affect the bond strength. This observation was in contradiction with the bond strength theory which considers the concrete strength as major variable. The second observation revealed significant difference in bond performance between bars with different microstructures. It is recommended that microstructure of the FRP bars be considered as a variable when investigating bond strength.

Book excerpt: The first textbook on the design of FRP for structural engineering applications Composites for Construction is a one-of-a-kind guide to understanding fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) and designing and retrofitting structures with FRP. Written and organized like traditional textbooks on steel, concrete, and wood design, it demystifies FRP composites and demonstrates how both new and retrofit construction projects can especially benefit from these materials, such as offshore and waterfront structures, bridges, parking garages, cooling towers, and industrial buildings. The code-based design guidelines featured in this book allow for demonstrated applications to immediately be implemented in the real world. Covered codes and design guidelines include ACI 440, ASCE Structural Plastics Design Manual, EUROCOMP Design Code, AASHTO Specifications, and manufacturer-published design guides. Procedures are provided to the structural designer on how to use this combination of code-like documents to design with FRP profiles. In four convenient sections, Composites for Construction covers: * An introduction to FRP applications, products and properties, and to the methods of obtaining the characteristic properties of FRP materials for use in structural design * The design of concrete structural members reinforced with FRP reinforcing bars * Design of FRP strengthening systems such as strips, sheets, and fabrics for upgrading the strength and ductility of reinforced concrete structural members * The design of trusses and frames made entirely of FRP structural profiles produced by the pultrusion process
