Bamboo can use at the simple concrete construction because of the tensile strength of its mechanical property. Meanwhile, a slippery surface of the bamboo caused cracks in the bamboo reinforced concrete beam (BRC) not to spread and yield slip failure between a bamboo bar and concrete. Load test at the BRC beam yield humble load capacity. This study aims to improve the capacity and behavior of BRC beam bending by giving waterproof coating, sand, and hose clamp installation. The beam test specimen with the size of 75x150x1100mm made as many as 26 pieces with the variety of reinforcement. The hose clamp used on the bamboo reinforcement varies with a distance of 0 cm, 15 cm, 20 cm, and 25 cm. The testing using a simple beam with two-point loading. The test results show that BRC beams have different bending behavior compared to the steel reinforced concrete beam (SRC).

Problems of taking into account nonlinear creep in steel- reinforced concrete beams are considered basing on the integral equation of viscous-elastic-plasticity of concrete. There has been obtained the resolving system of nonlinear integral equations, a linearization of this system has been carried out, its asymptotic solutions have been written out for the theory of elastic heredity case. The analysis of taking into account nonlinear creep has been performed compared with the linear creep equations and an instantaneous (short-term) loading allowing for concrete’s nonlinear diagram.

The flexural behavior of FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) reinforced concrete beam has been the topic of intensive previous research, because of the spread of use of modern FRP composite materials in the building industry as concrete reinforcement. The behavior of FRP reinforced member is different from the one reinforced with regular steel reinforcement, mainly because of vast difference between moduli of elasticity of FRP composite reinforcement bars and steel. This difference results in the fact that conventional design methods used for years in the field of reinforced concrete structures using steel reinforcement give poor results if attempted use with FRP reinforced structural members. Results of conventional methods are so poor that use of such methods would be dangerous they tend to overestimate load carrying capacity and underestimate deformations both resulting in unsafe predictions. This paper points to formulating easy to use and comprehensible method of predicting moment capacity of FRP reinforced concrete beams subjected to bending loading and validation of the proposed method via set of experiments.

Issues of calculating steel-reinforced concrete beams are considered taking into account a nonlinear concrete diagram based on the Sargin formula. The nonlinear system of equations for determination of curvature and neutral axis, which is solved numerically, is written in explicit form. Explicit expressions for determination of other calculated quantities needed for design of steel-reinforced concrete beams are derived. Numerical examples are given. The analysis of accounting nonlinearity in comparison with the linear calculation is carried out.


The flexural behavior of concrete beams reinforced with bamboo was studied experimentally. Bamboo was used as the main reinforcement with different bonding materials in place of steel. A nominal mix of M20 grade concrete was adopted for the beam design. The Bamboo surface was treated with common binding materials like Araldite and Bitumen. Araldite and Bitumen are good binding materials used to connect materials like steel, carbon and many different materials. Two specimens were casted with bitumen coating, two specimens were coated with araldite, two specimens were casted without any binder coating and a specimen was casted using normal steel reinforcement. Beams were casted with bamboo reinforcement and cured for 28 days. Deflection and flexural behavior of the beams were monitored. The test results imply that araldite coating in concrete beams with bamboo reinforcement increased the flexural strength to that of bamboo reinforced concrete using bitumen which is lesser strength to that of steel reinforced concrete beam.

FRP composite materials are widely applicable in the construction industries as a load-bearing structural element or a reinforcing and/or repairing materials for the concrete. In this paper, we presented the flexural behavior of steel reinforced concrete beams reinforced with FRP re-bars manufactured by different fibers but the same vinylester resin. Experimental investigation pertaining to the load-deflection and load-strain characteristics of steel reinforced concrete beams reinforced with FRP re-bars with garnet coated surface is presented and the theoretical prediction is also conducted. In the investigation, the effects of FRP re-bar reinforcement in addition to the steel reinforcement are estimated. The experimental results are compared with theoretical predictions. Good agreements are observed.

In this study, the behavior of reinforced concrete beams reinforced with FRP bars was investigated. A total of seventeen models were carried out based on the finite element software (ABAQUS). The concrete damage plasticity modeling was considered. Two types of fiber polymer bars, CFRP and GFRP as longitudinal reinforcement for concrete beam were used. The validation of numerical results was confirmed by experimental results, then the parametric study was conducted to evaluate the effect of change in different parameters, such as (diameter size, number of bars), type of FRP bars, longitudinal arrangement for FRP bars. All results were analyzed and discussed through, load-deflection diagram, according, to the difference parameter considered. The results showed that the use of FRP bars in rebar concrete beam improves the beam stiffness and enhance the cracking load. The load capacity enhanced in the range of (7.88-64.82%) when used CFRP bars. The load-carrying capacity of beams strengthened with CFRP is higher than that of strengthened with GFRP. Furthermore, the use of FRP bars in bottom and steel in top reinforcement is useful to overcome the large deflection, and improving the beam ductility. Finally, the results of finite element models were compared with the prediction equation, according to ACI440.1R-15.

Most computer programs developed for reinforced concrete beam design either analyze a given cross section for load capacity or offer a limited solution from which the engineer must continue toward the final design. These programs are very useful in performing many tedious calculations. However, they generally do not offer assistance in areas of design that require intuitive reasoning, experiential knowledge, rules of thumb, and sound engineering judgement. This type of heuristic knowledge has been incorporated into a prototype knowledge-based expert system for reinforced concrete beam design and detailing called BeamEx. BeamEx interacts with the user to advise and establish suitable parameters required for the comprehensive design of rectangular simply supported and continuous beams. It incorporates heuristic rules drawn from the governing Canadian codes and textbooks to design alternative suitable beams which are presented in graphical form. It is shown that a knowledge-based system approach can be used effectively in engineering design by encapsulating domain expertise in a program to complement and check the experience of the users in design. Key words: knowledge-based expert system, reinforced concrete, beams, design, detailing.

In this study, nine specimens were experimentally tested to analyze the strengthening efficiency of textile-reinforced mortar (TRM) and the difference in flexural behavior between prestressed and non-prestressed TRM-strengthened reinforced concrete beam. The test results show that TRM strengthening improves the flexural strength of TRM-strengthened reinforced concrete beams with alkali-resistant-(AR-) glass textile as well as that with carbon textile. However, in the case of textile prestressing, the strengthening efficiency for flexural strength of the AR-glass textile was higher than that of the carbon textile. The flexural stiffness of AR-glass textiles increased when prestressing was introduced and the use of carbon textiles can be advantageous to reduce the decreasing ratio of flexural stiffness as the load increased. In the failure mode, textile prestressing prevents the damage of textiles effectively owing to the crack and induces the debonding of the TRM.

Abstract. In the view of the project problem that concrete strength grade is lower than C15in reinforced concrete beam, we consider a composite technology strengthened with CFRP, and do some monotonic loading experiments on these beams with eight different methods, and discuss the beam force behavior including ultimate bearing capacity, failure model and crack propagation. This paper finds out that the composite reinforced scheme, which with ticking trough, planting steel displaces concrete and gluing and then pasting CFRP, has a remarkable improvement than pasting CFRP immediately, and that there is a high coherence workability in the old and new concrete, so we can give full play to their role as the CFRP high strength.
