The characteristics of the shear deformation inside the beam-column joint core of reinforced concrete frame structures subjected to seismic loading are discussed in this paper. The paper presents the formulation of an analytical model based on experimental observations. The model is intended to predict the expansions of beam-column joint core in the horizontal and vertical directions. The model describes the strain compatibility inside the joint in an average sense. Its predictions are verified utilizing experimental measurements obtained from tests conducted on beam-column connections. The model is found to adequately predict the components of shear deformation in the joint core and satisfactorily estimates the average strains in the joint hoops up to bond failure. The model may be considered as a simple, yet, important step towards analytical understanding of the sophisticated shear mechanism inside the joint and may be implemented in a controlled-deformation design technique of the joint.

A new finite element model for reinforced concrete beam-column joints is proposed. The model considers the effects of bond-slip and shear deformations in the joint panel region. The problems associated with modeling bond-slip of anchored reinforcing bars are discussed. The proposed bond-slip model is examined at the element level by comparing its predictions with other analytical and experimental results. The ability of the model to simulate bond deterioration and eventual pullout of anchored reinforcing bars under severe cyclic excitation is demonstrated. This model is incorporated into the global beam-column joint element. Further comparisons are made between the predictions of the proposed beam-column joint model and other analytical and experimental results under reversed cyclic loading to show the validity of the model to describe the bond-slip behavior of the joints.Key words: bond, bond-slip, finite element, beam-column, reinforced concrete, cyclic.

In this study, the effect of the change of stirrup ratio and polypropylene (PP) fiber ratio on the behavior of reinforced concrete beams was investigated. The variables of this study consisting of without stirrup, spacing up to 20 %, 40 % and 80 % of beam depth as stirrup spacing and 0.125 % and 0.500 % of the weight of reinforced concrete beam were used as PP fiber ratios. In the context of experimental study, 1/2 scaled 12 reinforced concrete beams were tested with 4-point bending mechanism. In the light of the obtained data, the load-displacement, stiffness and energy absorption graphs were plotted. The results were interpreted comparatively. According to the results, it is observed that the PP fiber additive significantly changed the behavior of the reinforced concrete beams, and the fiber effect decreased in proportion to the increase of the stirrup rate. It has been observed that the cracks spread more to the beam surfaces with the increase of PP fibers. In addition, the increase in the fiber ratio especially in the non-stirrup beams increases the bending capacity.
