Experiment on the constitutive model of fiber reinforced concrete with volume fraction of alkali-resistant glass fiber of, respectively, 0.0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5% was conducted, and the constitutive relation of tension stress-strain full curve of GFRC shaft was obtained; the constitutive relation of GFRP is obtained by experiment, and the secant modulus was obtained by the fitting of univariate cubic equation. The finite element numerical simulation of GFRP fiber reinforced concrete beam was carried out, and the load deflection nephogram of fiber reinforced concrete beam, strain nephogram, crack nephogram, and GFRP stress nephogram were obtained. When the fiber content is 1.0%, the bearing capacity of GFRP reinforced concrete beams is the best, and it could play a “bridging” effect when the incorporation of fiber is within the load range of about 60%, which inhibited the developing speed of cracks, but with the gradual increase of the load, the “bridging” effect disappeared.

In order to research the influence of basalt fiber on the crack and deflection of the reinforced concrete beams, four basalt fiber reinforced concrete beams with the key parameters of length which were 12mm and 30mm and volume ratio which were 0.1% and 0.2% were designed and made. The test data was obtained through the bending experiment and the comparison with the common reinforced concrete beam. The result shows that it is obvious to control the crack and deflection of the test beams with the increasing of basalt fiber characteristic parameters. The calculation method of the maximum crack width of the basalt fiber reinforced concrete beams were presented based on the method of common concrete beam, which can provide the theoretical basis for the engineering practice.

Fiber Reinforced

In order to research the influence of the shear capacity of reinforced concrete beam with the incorporation of basalt fiber, four basalt fiber reinforced concrete beams with parameters of length and volume ratio were designed and made. The fiber lengths were 12mm and 30mm, and the volume ratios were 1‰ and 2‰. The test data of basalt fiber reinforced concrete was obtained through the shear experiments and comparison with the common reinforced concrete beam. The results of the experiment show that the cracking load of the basalt fiber reinforced concrete beam increase obviously with the growing of fiber characteristic parameters, and effectively reduce the diagonal crack width.

Computation Model

Based on bending fiber reinforced concrete beam, through the nonlinear analysis, the paper discuss the constitutive models of concrete and reinforcement, the properties of their element and the models of concrete beams reinforced with FRP bars. Using nonlinear analysis and comparing numerical results with experimental results, the fiber reinforced concrete beam bending terminal numerical model constructed in this paper can simulate the entire process of internal force and deformation of fiber reinforced concrete beams, and describe cracks in the formation and extension and the failure process and failure form, which also can provide enough precision to the practical engineering and scientific research. Meanwhile, the finite element computation model verified by test can provide more reactive information to effective structure computation model.

The behaviour of reinforced concrete beam strengthened with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) and Glass fiber reinforced polymer GFRP laminates was investigated using finite element models and the results are presented in this paper. The numerical investigation assessed the effect of the configuration of FRP strengthening laminates on the behaviour of concrete beams. The load-deflection behaviour, and ultimate load of strengthened beam were compared to those of un-strengthened concrete beams. It was shown that using U-shaped FRP sheets increased the ultimate load. The stiffness of the strengthed beam also increased after first yielding of steel reinforcing bars. At was also observed that strengthening beams with FRP laminates to one-fourth of the beam span, modifies the failure of the beam from shear-controlled near the end of the unstrengthened beam, to flexure-controlled near mid-span. CFRP produced better results compared GFRP in terms of the ability to enhance the behavior of strengthenened reinforced concrete beams.

Simulation Results

In order to analyze the whole process of fatigue behaviours of reinforced concrete beams, an equivalent static analysis method is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the constitutive models based on the degradation of stiffness and strength and the accumulation of residual strain of concrete and reinforcement subjected to fatigue loadings are deduced and established by coupling the uniaxial constitutive model of concrete and the ideal elastic-plastic model of reinforcement under static load. Secondly, based on the similarity of concrete failure under static load and fatigue load, the equivalent relationship between fatigue and static analysis can be constructed by using the concrete residual strain as the equivalent parameter. On this basis, an equivalent static method for the analysis of fatigue behavior of reinforced concrete beam is proposed. At last, three reinforced concrete beams with rectangular section are tested, and the fatigue behaviours are analyzed by the method proposed in this paper. The numerical simulation results are compared with the field test data. The result shows that the numerical simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental results, which verifies the reliability and practicability of the method.

Element Analysis

A simplified finite element model for analysis of the Layered steel fiber beams with the concrete damaged plasticity model has been presented. The numerical simulation of load-deflection curve of layered steel fiber reinforced concrete beam under three-point loads is performed using ABAQUS. The results of simulation are generally in conformance with the experiment. The results of numerical simulation show that layered steel fiber has little contribution to the elastic capacity of concrete beam. But it can improve the ultimate bearing capacity of concrete beam obviously. The bending collapse style of layered steel fiber reinforced concrete beam is different from plain concrete beam evidently with obvious ductile characteristic.
