The Relationship

It is presented the formulation and solution of the load bearing capacity of statically indeterminable systems “reinforced concrete beam – deformable base” by spatial cross-sections under force and deformation effects. The solution of problem is currently practically absent in general form. It has been established the relationship between stresses and strains of compressed concrete and tensile reinforcement in the form of diagrams. The properties of the base model connections are described based on a variable rigidity coefficient. It is constructed a system of n equations in the form of the initial parameters method with using the modules of the force (strain) action vector. The equations of state are the dependences that establish the relationship between displacements which are acting on the beam with load. Constants of integration are determined by recurrent formulas. It makes possible to obtain the method of initial parameters in the expanded form and, consequently, the method of displacements for calculating statically indefinable systems. The values of the effort obtained could be used to determine the curvature and rigidity of the sections in this way. It is necessary not to set the vector modulusP, the deformation is set in any section (the module is considered as an unknown) during the problem is solving. This allows us to obtain an unambiguous solution even in the case when the dependence M–χ has a downward section, i.e one value of moment can correspond to two values of curvature.

Simulation Results

: In this research, some concrete three-point bending specimens (beams) reinforced by FRP are used in numerical simulation to study the influence of the reinforcement on fracture mechanism and the extreme load-bearing capacity of the specimens. The numerical simulation results show the propagation of the crack in concrete is controlled by using FRP. Meanwhile the load-bearing capacity is increased greatly and failure modes are changed.

Since reinforced concrete (RC) buildings have long service life, cutout openings are generally needed in their load-bearing walls as a sustainable solution in order to meet new requirements of their users. However, the cutout openings decrease the load-bearing capacity of the walls, which may result in the failure of the buildings. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of making a door opening in a load-bearing RC wall of an existing building in Gävle in Sweden. The wall studied in the current paper rests on two individual supports at its two ends; thus, it is considered as a deep beam. However, it is called an examined wall (EW) here. The StruSoft FEM-Design software is used in this study to model, analyze, and design the building based on the Eurocodes and Swedish national annex. The potential need for the EW to be strengthened when the cutout opening is made is also evaluated. It is concluded that strengthening the EW with cutout opening is needed. Different strengthening solutions are proposed for the EW. Moreover, the situation of the EW with the solutions is assessed with regard to the utilization ratio, deflection, and weight. Consequently, it is demonstrated that the proposed strengthening solutions function well for the EW.

Due to the increase in requirements for transport facilities, there is a need to strengthen them. The article is devoted to the analysis of reinforcement methods for load-bearing reinforced concrete structures of transport structures. The author notes in what period of the bridge’s life, it needs reinforcement, what difficulties are associated with reinforcing structures, and what are the main amplification methods that exist today. In order to select the optimal amplification method, it is necessary to carry out verification calculations, study the zone requiring amplification, take into account how many times the load-bearing capacity will increase and whether additional force effects will occur. This article describes the advantages and disadvantages of reinforcing by welding additional reinforcement and bonding composite material. The author calculated the amplification of the extended zone of the T-section reinforced concrete beam of the superstructure with additional reinforcement and composite materials. Based on the calculations made, recommendations have been put forward on the relevance of using one or another method of reinforcing the structure.

Resistance Performance

Prestressed steel reinforced concrete structure, compared with other concrete structure has its unique advantages. So it is mainly used in large span and conversion layers. With the popularization of this structure,more attention should be payed on fire resistance performance. On the basis of reasonable assume,two steps model is used as concrete high strength calculation model. Simplified intensity decreased curve is used as rebar,steel and prestressed. Two ultimate bearing capacity formulas of prestressed steel reinforced concrete beam are established. One is for the beam whose tensile area is under fire, the other is for the beam whose compression area is under fire. Prestressed steel reinforced concrete structure has both prestressed concrete structure’s advantages and steel reinforced concrete structure ’s advantage. Steel reinforced concrete is used to improve the bearing capacity of the structure. Prestressed steel is used to improve the ultimate state of structure’s performance during normal use. Thereby structure’s performance is better to play. There are many similarities between prestressed steel reinforced concrete structure and steel reinforced concrete structure about fire resistance performance. Because of prestressed steel reinforced concrete structure’s own characteristics, there are still many problems about fire resistance. This paper mainly presented bending terminal bearing capacity of prestressed steel reinforced concrete beam under fire. Established simplified formulae for calculation, it is meet the engineering accuracy requirement.

This article proposes a new type of discrete connected precast reinforced concrete diaphragm floor system that consists of precast flat slabs and slab joint connectors. An experimental investigation of discrete connected new-type precast reinforced concrete diaphragm under a vertical distributed static load was conducted, and the effect of slab joint connectors on the load-bearing capacity was evaluated. Then, a finite element analysis of discrete connected new-type precast reinforced concrete diaphragm, precast reinforced concrete floors without slab connectors, and cast-in-situ reinforced concrete floor were performed to understand their working mechanism and determine the differences in load-bearing behavior. The results indicate that the load-bearing capacity and stiffness of discrete connected new-type precast reinforced concrete diaphragm increase considerably as the hairpin and cover plate hybrid slab joint connectors can efficiently connect adjacent precast slabs and enable them to work together under a vertical load by transmitting the shear and moment forces in the orthogonal slab laying direction. The deflection of discrete connected new-type precast reinforced concrete diaphragm in orthogonal slab laying direction is mainly caused by the opening deformation of the slab joint and the rotational deformation of the precast slabs. This flexural deformation feature can provide reference for establishing the bending stiffness analytical model of discrete connected new-type precast reinforced concrete diaphragm in orthogonal slab laying direction, which is vitally important for foundation of the vertical bearing capacity and deformation calculation method. The deflection and crack distribution patterns infer that the discrete connected new-type precast reinforced concrete diaphragm processes the deformation characteristic of two-way slab floor, which can provide a basis for the theoretical analysis of discrete connected new-type precast reinforced concrete diaphragm.
