Abstract Previous studies of the behavior under fire conditions of composite steel and concrete beams, not subjected to local buckling (compact steel profile), showed that it’s not possible to justify, by design code methods, the absence of fire coating for 30 minutes standard-fire resistance requirement, even when considering the support rotational stiffness provided by the upper longitudinal slab reinforcement (semi-continuity). The purpose of this work is to verify the viability of this proposal for lower standard-fire resistance time, which, although rare, may occur with the use of the equivalent time method.

Experiments were conducted on 5 simply-supported composite steel-concrete beams (SCB) with compact steel sections to investigate their deflection behaviors. The influences of degree of shear connection and stud arrangement are discussed. The load-deflection relationships and the interface slip distribution along the span of the beam are analyzed. Based on the experimental research and theoretical analyses, the formulae are derived for the rigidity of the composite steel-concrete beams with partial shear connection. The predicted of deflection values are in good agreement with the experimental results.

Fire Conditions

Abstract The behavior under fire conditions of composite steel and concrete beams, not subjected to local buckling (compact steel profile), was studied considering the support rotational stiffness provided by the upper longitudinal slab reinforcement, usually present by means of anti-cracking meshes, and restriction of the steel profile’s lower flange, additional procedure required for development of the support bending moment resistance. Usually composite beams at room temperature are designed as simply supported and the semi-rigidity provided by this longitudinal reinforcement, if considered under fire conditions, may lead to a lower cost solution for fire protection of composite beams. The purpose of this study is to verify the viability of this proposal, using simplified design code methods.

AbstractFree vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) curved panels integrated with piezoelectric layers under various boundary conditions is studied. A panel with two opposite edges is simply supported, and arbitrary boundary conditions at the other edges are considered. Two different models of material property variations based on the power law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents and the exponential law distribution of the material properties through the thickness are considered. Based on the three-dimensional theory of elasticity, an approach combining the state space method and the differential quadrature method (DQM) is used. For the simply supported boundary conditions, closed-form solution is given by making use of the Fourier series expansion, and applying the differential quadrature method to the state space formulations along the axial direction, new state equations about state variables at discrete points are obtained for the other cases such as clamped or free-end conditions. Natural frequencies of the hybrid curved panels are presented by solving the eigenfrequency equation, which can be obtained by using edges boundary conditions in this state equation. The results obtained for only FGM shell is verified by comparing the natural frequencies with the results obtained in the literature.

Creep failure is one of the most important failure modes in the design of hydroprocessing reactors at elevated temperatures, and the accurate prediction of the creep behavior in structural discontinuities is a critical issue for component design. A physically-based continnum damage mechanics (CDM) model was adopted to describe all three creep stages of 2.25Cr-1Mo-0.25V ferritic steel widely used in manufacturing modern hydroprocessing reactors. The material constants in the damage constitutive equations were identified using an efficient optimization scheme based on genetic algorithm (GA). The user-defined subroutine implementing the CDM model was developed using user programmable features (UPFs) in ANSYS. Three-dimensional finite element analysis of the hydroprocessing reactor was conducted to determine the critical regions, and the studies on the stress redistribution and the prediction of damage evolution in these regions during creep were carried out. The results show that FE modelling based on CDM theory can provide a good tool for creep design of complex engineering components.

Flexural Reinforcement

An experimental investigation was carried out to study shear carrying capacity and ultimate flexural moment of reinforced cement concrete beam. Two series of simply supported beams were prepared by varying diameter and spacing of shear and flexural reinforcement. Beams of cross section 230 mm X 300 mm and length of 2000 mm. During testing, maximum load, first crack load, deflection of beams were recorded. Test results indicated that decreasing shear spacing and decreasing its diameter resulted in decrease in deflection of beam and increase in bending moment and shear force of beam.
