Abstract The performance of textile reinforced concrete composite panels (TRCCPs) under the action of pseudo-static load up to collapse was evaluated. The test of TRCCPs under axial and transverse loading was conducted, and the results were compared with those for steel wire mesh reinforced-concrete composite panels (SMRCCPs). Ceram-site concrete was utilized as the panel matrix owing to its lightweight and insulation characteristics. The ultimate load bearing capacity, load-deformation and load-strain relationships, and failure modes were discussed and investigated in comparison with the findings of non-linear finite-element-model (FEM) analysis and the analytic method on the basis of the reinforced concrete (RC) theory. The analysis results indicate that TRCCP is suitable for use as a potential structural member for a wall or slab system of buildings, and the typical RC theory can be applied to predict the ultimate load bearing capacity if modified suitably.

This paper provided three test data pertaining to the mechanical properties of steel reinforced concrete (SRC) eccentric columns after exposure to fire and one comparative test data pertaining to the mechanical properties of steel reinforced concrete columns at room temperature. The influence of eccentricity on failure mode, distortion performance and ultimate load bearing capacity are mainly studied. Test results show that the failure modes of steel reinforced concrete eccentric columns after exposure to fire are similar to that at room temperature. Strain along the section height at mid-span section of eccentric columns before loaded to 90% ultimate load bearing capacity is linearly distributed and well agree with the plane section supposition. After exposure to fire, the flexural rigidity and load bearing capacity of specimens are all declined compared with that at normal temperature. In various loading stages from the initial loading to 80% ultimate strength, the ratio of flexural rigidity of SRC eccentric columns after exposure to fire and at normal temperature is ranged from 0.30 to 0.59. With the same concrete strength and heating condition, the ultimate strength of specimens decreases with the increasing of eccentricity. The ultimate bearing capacity of all specimens at normal room temperature is calculated on the method proposed by Chinese regulation JGJ 138-2001. The compared results of experimental values and calculating values show that the residual load bearing capacity of SRC eccentric columns after exposure to fire is about 69% to 81% of that at room temperature.

This paper provided three test data pertaining to the mechanical properties of reinforced concrete columns after exposure to ISO834 standard fire and three comparative test data pertaining to the mechanical properties of reinforced concrete columns at room temperature, mainly concerning the influence of fire on failure mode, distortion performance and ultimate load bearing capacity of reinforced concrete columns under axial and eccentric compression. Test results show that the failure mode of reinforced concrete columns after exposure to fire is basically same with that at room temperature. With the same concrete strength and heating condition, the bearing capacity of specimens reduces as the eccentricity increases. Strain along the section height of eccentric columns after fire basically agree with the plane section supposition while the flexural rigidity and ultimate load bearing capacity decreases obviously. The residual load bearing capacity of reinforced concrete columns after exposure to fire is only about 25% to 37% of that at room temperature.

The application of Aluminum alloy T-stub joints has been found widely in China recently, while the research achievements of the joint are far from adequate for design. This paper is focused on the ultimate load-bearing capacity of aluminum alloy T-stub joints. On the basis of Kulak prying model, formulas for calculating ultimate load-bearing capacity, considering four types of failure modes, are derived. The numerical simulation is carried out by means of ABAQUS FEA. Numerical results are verified by comparing with previous results obtained from experimental analysis. A parametric analysis is performed to investigate the influence of several geometrical parameters on the behavior of aluminum alloy T-stub joints including failure modes, ultimate load-bearing capacity and effective length of flanges. These numerical results are also compared with those calculated by relevant formulas in EC9.

The purpose of this paper is to adopt the Johansen's yielding theory as a possibility to predict the ultimate load for timber‐to‐concrete joints using self‐tapping threaded connectors screwed at an angle into the wood. The ultimate load‐bearing capacity of a single connector is predicted to be when either the stresses in the wood reach the plastic failure stress level or when a combination of plastic failure in wood and dowel is attained. K. W. Johansen assumed that no axial tension occurred in the dowel and, thus no frictional contribution affected the lateral load‐bearing capacity. However, the joints with inclined fasteners are first affected by tension load, so the withdrawal capacity of the screws has to be taken into account. In order to determine the load bearing capacity for specific connector geometry, the kinematical possible failure modes are determined. The screw in the concrete part of connection was taken as rigidly embedded and thus no deformations appeared. The study showed that the load‐bearing capacity for connections with inclined high tensile strength screws can be predicted using the yielding theory, but this theory was unable to predict precisely the failure mode. Possible reasons for that include limited fastener ductility and influence of the screw inclination on the strength properties of timber.

: 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.

In order to study the ultimate load-bearing capacity of the long-span concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) arch bridge with fly-bird-type, the ANSYS finite element program was used to establish its special model, and to study ultimate load-bearing capacity of this bridge with three different methods. The constitutive relation factors of concrete-filled steel tubular was taken into consideration including confining effect ultimate load coefficients, failure modes, and load-displacement curves of this bridge under different cases. The result indicate that the ultimate load-bearing capacity of the bridge can meet the requirement, all of its failure modes is out-plane, the two methods, linear elastic buckling analysis and only geometric nonlinearity analysis, will over high estimate ultimate load-bearing capacity of this bridge, and linear elastic buckling method cannot reflect real failure mode of this structure. In order to correctly estimate the ultimate load-bearing capacity of the bridge structure, the effect of geometric and material double nonlinearity couldn’t be neglected.
