The purpose of this paper is looking at the dynamic response of existing reinforced concrete structures which have possibly sustained various levels of damage, a set of tests need to be identified that will be able to detect damage and quantify the damage if damage exists. In this work it is presented a further study on the effect of damage on the behavior of reinforced concrete beams. In particular, the non-linear behavior of these beams is considered once significant cracking has been introduced, outlining the stage of testing carried out in dynamic field.

The Impact

With incorporation of assembling joints, precast concrete beams could behave very differently in resisting both static and dynamic loads in comparison to conventional reinforced concrete beams. With no research available on the dynamic behavior of precast concrete beams under impact load, a combined experimental and numerical study is conducted to investigate the dynamic response of precast concrete beams under impact load. The results were also compared with reinforced concrete beams. Four groups of concrete beams were tested with all beams designed with the same reinforcement, but different assembling locations were considered for precast concrete beams. The effects of the assembling location in resisting drop weight impact of precast concrete beams were analyzed. The influence of impact mass and impact velocity on the impact resistance of precast concrete beams were also investigated. The results revealed that the further the assembling location is away from the impact location, the closer the mechanical performance of the precast concrete beam is to that of the reinforced concrete beam. When the assembling location and the impact location coincided, the assembling region suffered from severe local damages. With increased impact velocity and impact energy, the damage mode of the precast concrete beams may change gradually from bending failure to bending–shear failure and eventually to local failure. In addition, the bonding around the assembling interface was found to be effective to resist drop weight impact load regardless of the magnitude of the impact velocity and energy.

ABSTRACTThe behaviour under impact loading of concrete beams, reinforced with both smooth and deformed steel reinforcing bars, was studied. Tests were carried out using an instrumented drop-weight impact apparatus, with a 345 kg mass hammer, and drop heights of up to 2.36 m. It was found that, under certain circumstances, the steel reinforcement itself fractured. This behaviour is discussed with reference to the drop height, the type of reinforcement, and the strength of the concrete matrix.
