Jute Fibers

This paper presents an innovative method of reinforcement of concrete based on the use of the Jute fibers composites. These renewable raw bioresource fibers are available at a low cost. Moreover, they can be compared to Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) by enhancing the resistance of Jute Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (JFRP), while improving the compatibility between the fiber and the resin. For that purpose, this paper presents an experimental study that evaluates the influence of the curing conditions (time and temperature) on the behavior of JFRP laminates and concrete members strengthened by JFRP. The curing conditions at 30 °C for 2h 30min and at 50 °C for 1 h were the only two parameters studied and determined on the basis of Sikadur 330 properties and preliminary tests. Through the experimental tests, the maximum load capacity and observed failure modes are investigated. The results indicated that the curing at 30 °C for 2h 30min is the optimum curing condition. In addition, a low difference in the maximum load capacity was noted in the case of 50 °C. As to the failure modes, all the specimens cured with additional heat before being left under room conditions, have shown the ductile mode failure, especially in the case of specimens cured at 30 °C during 2h 30min. The analytical model conducted in this paper predicts the elastic modulus depending on temperature. The obtained results and proposed model can be used as input parameters in the analysis and design of externally strengthened members with Jute FRP composites.

A New Technique

Even though the application of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) as a concrete reinforcement becomes more common with various advantages, one of the inherent shortcomings may include its brittleness and on-site fabrication and handling. Therefore, the shape of FRP products has been limited only to a straight bar or sheet type. This study suggests a new technique to use glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars for the shear reinforcement in concrete beams, and investigates its applicability. The developed GFRP stirrup was used in the concrete instead of ordinary steel stirrups. The experimental program herein evaluates the effectiveness of the GFRP stirrups with respect to different shear reinforcing ratios under three different shear span-to-depth testing schemes. At the same shear reinforcing ratio, the ultimate loads of the beams were similar regardless the shear reinforcing materials. Once a major crack occurs in concrete, however, the failure modes seemed to be relatively brittle with GFRP stirrups. From the measured strains on the surface of concrete, the shear stresses sustained by the stirrups were calculated and the efficiency of the GFRP stirrups was shown to be 91% to 106% depending on the shear span-to-depth ratio.

Bolt Connection

Bolt-hole clearance affects the failure mode on the bolted connection system of pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer plastic (PFRP) members. The various geometric parameters, such as the shape and cross-sectional area of the structural members, commonly reported in many references were used to validate the bolt-hole clearance. This study investigates the effects of the bolt-hole clearance in single-bolt connections of PFRP structural members. Single-bolt connection tests were planned using different bolt-hole clearances (e.g., tight-fit and clearances of 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm with 0.5 mm intervals) and uniaxial tension is applied on the test specimens. Most of the specimens failed in two sequential failure modes: bearing failure occurred and the shear-out failure followed. Test results on the bolt-hole clearances are compared with results in the previous research.

Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer

Fatigue behavior is an important factor for mechanical analysis of concrete members reinforced by basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) grid and polymer cement mortar (PCM) and plays a critical role in ensuring the safety of reinforced concrete bridges and other structures. In this study, on the basis of the static loading test results of concrete specimens reinforced by BFRP grid and PCM, a series of fatigue tests with different loading levels were conducted on interfaces between BFRP grid and concrete to investigate the fatigue behavior of BFRP grid-concrete interfaces. The test results indicate that with high loading level, the fatigue failure mode of interface is interfacial peeling failure while it transforms to the fatigue fracture of the BFRP grid under low loading level. The fatigue life (S-N) curves of BFRP grid-concrete interface are obtained and fitted in stages according to different failure modes, and the critical point of the two failure modes is pointed out. The relative slip evolution of interface during fatigue is further revealed in different stages with two failure modes, and the law of interface strain is studied with the increase of fatigue times. The relation of effective bonding length of interface and fatigue times is also described.

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites have been widely used to design fiber-reinforced polymer–based confined concrete columns with potential benefits. However, it is critical to design a column with sufficient post-peak performance that can prevent its collapse at the rupture of the fiber-reinforced polymer tube. This article presents the experimental results on the prior and post peaks behavior of concrete-filled double-skin tubular columns with basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP)–punched-in outer steel and BFRP-circular inner steel (BFST-DSTCs). Twenty-two specimens were tested under axial compression to investigate the effects of design parameters on the behavior of the BFST-DSTC. The outcomes reveal that the BFST-DSTC exhibits the best performance in terms of load capacity, confinement ratio, failure and damage mechanisms, and ductility in prior and post peaks. The inner fiber-reinforced polymer jacket delays the buckling of the inner tube. The punched-in patterns of the outer steel improve the confinement effectiveness of the fiber-reinforced polymer jacket. The BFST-DSTC displays a good post-peak performance with high-energy dissipation capacity that prevents the concerned structure from collapse after the fiber-reinforced polymer jacket rupture. Finally, a new confinement model is proposed to predict the ultimate point of the confined concrete.
