The construction of lanes for the installation of reinforced concrete structures using holes are used for multi-storey buildings, which is required for utility networks such as power lines, piping, telephone cables, air conditioners, etc. The utility networks are usually sited in the space above the ceiling or attached by installation to the beam. Consequently, it can be reduced by the height of the rooms in the buildings and as well as debauched aesthetically. An alternative design is needed, and one of which would be implemented by utilizing spaces on the beam structures. In this research, we used an experimental method by performing analytical calculations initially, then the results from the laboratory were checked for collapse model on the test object I, which is a flexural collapse model. The collapse model on Test objects II and III was a shear failure model. Further, the test specimen III of 3-hollow T-beam cross section was feeblest from the other cross-section, with the type of shear failure occurring on the holes of the maximum shear area.

The Impact

This paper presents an experimental program of reinforced concrete beam without stirrups tested by impact three-point-bending under different initial velocity (drop height). As the results shown, for the static events, the failure mode is bending firstly, and then translates to shearing. the longitudinal reinforcements play an important role for the increasing of loading during bending stage. For the impact events, reinforced concrete beams failed in a flexural failure model at slow rates of loading and in shear failure model at high impact loading rate relatively. Moreover, the shear failure and bending failure have developed during the peak stage of Force-deflection curves. That is different with the emergence sequence of cracks under static tests. So the mechanical parameters of peak stage should be considered for the resistance of concrete beam under impact loading.

Deck Slab

Canadian codes allow the design of concrete deck slabs of slab-on-girder bridges by taking account of the internal arching action that develops in these slabs under concentrated wheel loads in particular. Provided that certain prescribed conditions are met, a deck slab is deemed to have met the design criteria if it is provided with a top and a bottom layer of steel reinforcement with each layer consisting of an orthogonal mesh of steel bars in which the area of cross section of the bars in each direction is at least 0.3% of the effective area of cross section of the deck slab. For deck slabs of bridges having skew angles greater than 20°, the codes require the minimum amount of reinforcement to be doubled in the end zones near the skew supports. Model testing has shown that need for such an increase can be eliminated by providing composite end diaphragms with high flexural rigidity in the horizontal plane. The proposed concept is tested on a model of fibre-reinforced concrete deck without steel reinforcement in which deficiencies in the confinement of the deck slab readily manifest themselves in form of a bending, rather than punching shear, failure. Key words: highway bridges, bridge decks, deck slabs, skew deck, skew bridges, fibre-reinforced concrete decks.

Состояние проблемы. Железобетонные элементы изготавливаются, как правило, по трем основным технологиям - вибрированием, центрифугированием и виброцентрифугированием. Однако все основные расчетные зависимости для определения их несущей способности выведены, исходя из основного постулата - постоянства и равенства характеристик бетона по сечению, что реализуется лишь в вибрированных колоннах. Результаты. В рамках диаграммного подхода предложены итерационный, приближенный и упрощенный способы расчета несущей способности железобетонных вибрированных, центрифугированных и виброцентрифугированных колонн. Выводы. Расчет по диаграммному подходу показал существенно более подходящую сходимость с опытными данными, чем расчет по методике норм, а также дал лучшие результаты при использовании дифференциальных характеристик бетона, чем при использовании интегральных и, тем более, нормативных характеристик бетона. Statement of the problem. Reinforced concrete elements are typically manufactured according to three basic technologies - vibration, centrifugation and vibrocentrifugation. However, all the basic calculated dependencies for determining their bearing capacity were derived using the main postulate, i.e., the constancy and equality of the characteristics of concrete over the cross section, which is implemented only in vibrated columns. Results. Within the framework of the diagrammatic approach, iterative, approximate and simplified methods of calculating the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete vibrated, centrifuged and vibrocentrifuged columns are proposed. Conclusions. The calculation according to the diagrammatic approach showed a significantly better convergence with the experimental data than that using the method of norms, and also performs better when using differential characteristics of concrete than when employing integral and particularly standard characteristics of concrete.

Ductile Behavior

Experimental research on axially compressed columns made from reinforced concrete (RC) and RC columns strengthened with a steel jacket and additional fill concrete is presented in this paper. A premade squared cross-section RC column was placed inside a steel tube, and then the space between the column and the tube was filled with additional concrete. A total of fourteen stub axially compressed columns, including nine strengthened specimens and five plain reinforced concrete specimens, were experimentally tested. The main parameter that was varied in the experiment was the compressive strength of the filler concrete. Three different concrete compression strength classes were used. Test results showed that all three cross-section parts (the core column, the fill, and the steel jacket) worked together in the force-carrying process through all load levels, even if only the basic RC column was loaded. The strengthened columns exhibited pronounced ductile behavior compared to the plain RC columns. The influence of the test parameters on the axial compressive strength was investigated. In addition, the specimen failure modes, strain development, and load vs. deformation relations were registered. The applicability of three different design codes to predict the axial bearing capacity of the strengthened columns was also investigated.

Shear Cracking

Deteriorated concrete cover, e.g., spalling or delamination, especially when it occurs at the web of a reinforced concrete (RC) beam within the shear span, can reduce the shear capacity of the beam. Patching of this deteriorated area may be the best option to recover the shear capacity of the beam affected. For this purpose, unsaturated polyester resin mortar (UPR mortar) has been formulated. This research aims to investigate the efficacy of UPR mortar in limiting the shear cracking and so restoring the shear capacity of the deteriorated RC beam. The investigation is carried out by an experimental and numerical study. Two types of beams with a size of 150 × 250 × 1000 mm were prepared. The first type of beams was assigned as a normal beam. The other was a beam with a cut off in the non-stirrup shear span, which was eventually patched with UPR mortar. Two reinforcement ratios were assigned for each type of beams. The results show that UPR mortar is effective to hamper the propagation of diagonal cracks leading to increase the shear failure load by 15–20% compared to the reference (normal) beam. The increase of shear strength with the use of UPR mortar is consistently confirmed at various reinforcement ratios.

Reinforced concrete structures can be strongly damaged by chloride corrosion of reinforcement. Rust accumulated around rebars involves a volumetric expansion, causing cracking of the surrounding concrete. To simulate the corrosion progress, the initiation phase of the corrosion process is first examined, taking into account the phenomena of oxygen and chloride transport as well as the corrosion current flow. This makes it possible to estimate the mass of produced rust, whereby a corrosion level is defined. A combination of three numerical methods is used to solve the coupled problem. The example object of the research is a beam cross-section with four reinforcement bars. The proposed methodology allows one to predict evolving chloride concentration and time to reinforcement depassivation, depending on the reinforcement position and on the location of a point on the bar surface. Moreover, the dependence of the corrosion initiation time on the chloride diffusion coefficient, chloride threshold, and reinforcement cover thickness is examined.
