Abstract:
Many factors can affect the shear capacity of fiber-reinforced polymer in reinforced concrete beams shear-strengthened with externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer composites. Undoubtedly, the interaction of concrete-stirrup-fiber-reinforced polymer system is one of the key factors. However, most of the existing fiber-reinforced polymer design guidelines do not take account of this important factor on predicting fiber-reinforced polymer shear capacity. This study provides an advanced strengthening model that comprehensively considers the interaction among concrete, stirrup, and fiber-reinforced polymer for calculating the fiber-reinforced polymer effective strain. The advanced strengthening model provides a more accurate prediction for the fiber-reinforced polymer shear contribution compared with existing design guidelines.Keywords:

The research on using carbon fiber reinforced polymer(CFRP) for strengthening reinforced concrete construction damaged by fire is not conducted widely.According to the features after fire the reinforced concrete beams strengthened with CFRP were tested.The result shows that bearing capacity of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with CFRP can considerably improved,it is an available and practical method.Technological foundation is provided for strengthening design method of reinforced concrete construction damaged by fire,and the result gives a reference to strengthening similar constructions after fire.

This paper aims to investigate the effect of using different configurations of near-surface mounted carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (NSM-CFRP) strips on the shear strength of strengthened and rehabilitated reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams with different internal shear stirrup spacing. The internal shear stirrup spacing was 50 and 150 mm. The NSM-CFRP strips were at an inclination of 45° and spaced at 75 and 150 mm. A total of eight beams were tested in this study: two beams without NSM-CFRP as control beams for the purpose of comparison; three beams were strengthened by NSM-CFRP; and three beams were rehabilitated by NSM-CFRP. The experimental shear capacities were compared with the theoretical values predicted by the ACI 440.2R-17. The results indicated that the use of NSM-CFRP strips enhanced the shear capacity for all beams compared to their corresponding control beams. The enhancements in the shear capacity increased with the decrease in the spacing of the internal shear stirrups and NSM-CFRP strips. The ACI 440.2R-17 was conservative in predicting the theoretical shear capacities.

Shear test data have been extracted from previous experimental research and compiled into a database that may be the largest ever made. In this paper, the shear database (SDB) was used for evaluating shear design provisions for both reinforced concrete (RC) beams and prestressd concrete (PSC) beams. A discussion on the use of the results of this evaluation related to calibration and strength reduction factor for the shear design provisions was also provided. It was observed that the shear design provisions did not provide good predictions for RC members and gave very poor predictions especially for RC members without shear reinforcement. On the other hand, the limit on shear strength contributed by transverse reinforcement was observed to be lower than necessary. The shear design provisions gave very unconservative results for the large RC members (d>700mm) without shear reinforcement having light amount of longitudinal reinforcement $(\rho_w

The majority of beams used in construction have shear reinforcement provision.However, there exists a disparity in the results of the shear capacity guaranteed by the available shear design provisions.This is so because of the complex nature of the reinforced concrete shear mechanism.This study compares the BS 8110, EC2, and the Improved EC2 shear resistance models to ascertain the differences in their predictive ability when compared to experimental results.The EC2 is the most conservative at low level of shear reinforcement, i.e., shear reinforcement ≤ 1.3 , and at ≤ 2 for mean value and design value predictions respectively.From the parametric trendline chart, the Improved EC2 predicts a higher shear capacity for lightly reinforced concrete beams than the EC2 shear model.A demerit point of 76 and 187 obtained respectively for the mean and design shear capacities of the BS 8110 shows that it is the most reliable of the three models in predicting the shear strength of stirrup-reinforced concrete beams.

In this study, the size effect in flexural and shear behaviors of reinforced concrete beams with stirrup has been studied. The specimens of different size with same longitudinal reinforcement ratio are tested. The major variables of test include the size(relative depth) of the members as well as the longitudinal reinforcement ratios. The nominal resistances in flexure and shear are obtained for various sizes and steel ratios. It is found from the present study that the size effect is also very pronounced for the flexural resistance in reinforced concrete structures. The prediction formulas for the size effect of reinforced concrete beams in flexure and shear are proposed. The proposed equations agree relatively well with experimental data. The present study will provide useful bases for more accurate analysis and design of reinforced concrete structures.

Strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) continuous beams in shear have received very little attention among researchers even though most existing structures are in the form of continuous condition such as part of a floor-beam system. Therefore, in order to address the gap, a study on shear strengthening and shear repair of reinforced concrete continuous beam using Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) strips was conducted [15]. The validation of the experimental results was conducted with a simulation study using a finite element software ATENA v4 [16]. The research variables were number of layers of CFRP strips (one or two layers), wrapping schemes (four sides or three sides) and orientation of CFRP strips (0/90 or 45/135 degree’s). From the analysis of the finite element results, ATENA shows it has successfully simulated the shear behaviour of strengthened and repaired of 2-span continuous RC beams externally bonded by CFRP strips.

Due to the extraordinary mechanical properties of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC), the shear stirrups in UHPC beams could potentially be removed. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of beam height and steel fiber volume content on the shear behavior of non-stirrup UHPC beams under a larger shear span-depth ratio (up to 2.8). Eight beams were designed and fabricated, including six non-stirrup UHPC beams and two comparing stirrup-reinforced normal concrete (NC) beams. The experimental results demonstrated that the volume content of steel fiber could be a crucial factor affecting the ductility, cracking strength, and shear strength of non-stirrup UHPC beams and altering their failure modes. Additionally, the height of the beam had a considerable effect on its shear resistance. This study revealed that the French standard formulae were more accurate for the UHPC beams with larger shear span-depth ratios and PCI-2021 formulae greatly overestimate the shear capacity of UHPC beams with larger shear span-depth ratios. Xu’s formulae were more accurate for the steel fiber-reinforced UHPC beams with larger shear span-depth ratios.

FPR(Fiber Reinforced Polymer)는 중량에 비해 높은 강도, 높은 내부식성 등 우수한 역학적 특성으로 인해 최근 건설분야에 적용되는 사례가 많아지고 있으며, 특히 콘크리트 구조물 보강에 가장 활발히 적용되고 있다. FRP를 이용한 전통적인 보강방법은 인장면에 FRP를 부착하는 부착공법이었으나, 부착공법은 FRP의 박리 또는 부착파괴와 같은 조기파괴 문제점과 고정하중과 분담과 사용성 개선이 어려운 단점을 갖고 있다. 이러한 FRP 부착공법의 문제점들을 해결하기 위한 노력으로 최근에는 CFRP 판에 프리스트레스를 도입하는 공법에 대한 연구들이 시작되었다. 판형태의 CFRP를 이용하여 구조물에 긴장력을 도입하면 주인장철근의 응력을 경감시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 구조물의 균열폭과 휨변형도 감소시킬 수 있으며, 추가되는 활하중뿐만 아니라 고정하중도 일부 분담할 수 있게 되어 고가의 CFRP를 효율적으로 활용할 수 있는 방법이 된다. CFRP 판 긴장공법을 위해 최우선적으로 해결되어야 하는 것은 CFRP 긴장재를 정착하기 위한 적절한 정착장치의 개발이다. 본 연구에서는 CFRP 판 긴장재를 위한 정착장치를 개발하고자 CFRP 판의 정착단부 상세를 변수로 한 정착장치 인장실험을 수행하였으며, 기존 상용 정착구와 비교하여 저비용으로 제작 가능한 CFRP 판 긴장재용 몰드형 정착구의 성능을 검증하였다. 몰드형 정착장치에 대한 성능실험 결과 CFRP 판 긴장재의 표면이 거칠게 처리된 시편이 가장 정착성능이 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 정착단부의 형상변화는 정착성능에 기여하지 못하는 것으로 나타났다.
