Análisis experimental de distintas configuraciones de chapa metálica en el refuerzo a flexión de vigas de concreto armadoRESUMENEl acero de refuerzo estructural externo a través de chapas de acero pegadas con adhesivo epóxico es una opción para incrementar la capacidad de carga de elementos de concreto reforzado. En este estudio se evaluaron vigas de concreto reforzadas con chapas de acero SAE 1020 de diferentes espesores (0.75, 1.50 y 2.25 mm), longitudes (80 and 150 cm) y configuración (en forma de U o plana) con el propósito de revisar y comparar las mejores prácticas con chapas pegadas al refuerzo estructural. Se elaboraron 21 vigas construídas con una sección trasversal de 12 x 20 cm y una longitud de 200 cm, con concreto C25 y armadura de flexión con 2 Ø10 mm. Las vigas fueron sometidas a ensayos de flexión en 4 puntos, lo que permitió analizar las cargas últimas y desplazamientos verticales. Como resultado, se presenta una comparación relativa al desempeño de las vigas.Palabras clave: refuerzo estructural; placas de acero coladas, vigas de concreto reforzado. Experimental analysis of various configurations of metal sheets in the reinforcement of flexion of reinforced concrete beamsABSTRACT The external structural reinforcing steel in the way of steel sheets attached with epoxy adhesive is an option to increase the load capacity of reinforced concrete elements. This study evaluated concrete beams reinforced with steel sheets SAE 1020 of different thicknesses (0.75, 1.50, and 2.25 mm), longitudes (80 and 150 cm), and configurations (U-shape or flat) with the purpose of reviewing and comparing the best practices with sheets adhered to the structural reinforcement. Twenty-one beams were built with a cross-section of 12 x 20 cm and a longitude of 200 cm, with C25 concrete, and flexion frame with 2 Ø10 mm. The beams where subject to a four-point flexural test, which allowed analyzing the optimal loads and vertical displacements. Thus, a comparison relative to the performance of the beams is presented.Keywords: structural reinforcement; cast steel plates; reinforced concrete beams. Análise experimental de distintas configurações de chapa metálica no reforço à flexão em vigas de concreto armadoRESUMO O reforço estrutural externo com chapa metálica colada com adesivo epóxi é uma opção que possibilita aumentar a capacidade de carga em elementos de concreto armado.

Many structural retrofitting methods tend to only focus on how to improve the strength and ductility of structural members. It is necessary for developing retrofitting strategy to consider not only upgrading the capacity but also achieving rapid and economical construction. In this paper, a new retrofitting details and technique is proposed to improve structural capacity and constructability for retrofitting reinforced concrete beams. The components of retrofitting are prefabricated, and the components are quickly assembled using bolts and chemical anchors on site. The details of modularized steel plates for retrofitting have been chosen based on the finite element analysis. To evaluate the structural performance of concrete beams retrofitted with the proposed details, five concrete beams with and without retrofitting were tested. The proposed retrofitting method significantly increased both the maximum load capacity and ductility of reinforced concrete beams. The test results showed that the flexural performance of the existing reinforced concrete beams increased by 3 times, the ductility by 2.5 times, and the energy dissipation capacity by 7 times.

Abstract Background A series of nonlinear finite element (FE) analyses was performed to evaluate the different design approaches available in the literature for design of reinforced concrete deep beam with large opening. Three finite element models were developed and analyzed using the computer software ATENA. The three FE models of the deep beams were made for details based on three different design approaches: (Kong, F.K. and Sharp, G.R., Magazine of Concrete Res_30:89-95, 1978), (Mansur, M. A., Design of reinforced concrete beams with web openings, 2006), and Strut and Tie method (STM) as per ACI 318-14 (ACI318 Committee, Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (ACI318-14), 2014). Results from the FE analyses were compared with the three approaches to evaluate the effect of different reinforcement details on the structural behavior of transfer deep beam with large opening. Results The service load deflection is the same for the three models. The stiffnesses of the designs of (Mansur, M. A., Design of reinforced concrete beams with web openings, 2006) and STM reduce at a load higher than the ultimate design load while the (Kong, F.K. and Sharp, G.R., Magazine of Concrete Res_30:89-95, 1978) reduces stiffness at a load close to the ultimate design load. The deep beam designed according to (Mansur, M. A., Design of reinforced concrete beams with web openings, 2006) model starts cracking at load higher than the beam designed according to (Kong, F.K. and Sharp, G.R., Magazine of Concrete Res_30:89-95, 1978) method. The deep beam detailed according to (Kong, F.K. and Sharp, G.R., Magazine of Concrete Res_30:89-95, 1978) and (Mansur, M. A., Design of reinforced concrete beams with web openings, 2006) failed due to extensive shear cracks. The specimen detailed according to STM restores its capacity after initial failure. The three models satisfy the deflection limit. Conclusion It is found that the three design approaches give sufficient ultimate load capacity. The amount of reinforcement given by both (Mansur, M. A., Design of reinforced concrete beams with web openings, 2006) and (Kong, F.K. and Sharp, G.R., Magazine of Concrete Res_30:89-95, 1978) is the same. The reinforcement used by the STM method is higher than the other two methods. Additional reinforcement is needed to limit the crack widths. (Mansur, M. A., Design of reinforced concrete beams with web openings, (2006)) method gives lesser steel reinforcement requirement and higher failure load compared to the other two methods.

The present investigation focuses on the response of simply supported reinforced concrete rectangular-section beams with multiple openings of different sizes, numbers, and geometrical configurations. The advantages of the reinforcement concrete beams with multiple opening are mainly, practical benefit including decreasing the floor heights due to passage of the utilities through the beam rather than the passage beneath it, and constructional benefit that includes the reduction of the self-weight of structure resulting due to the reduction of the dead load that achieves economic design. To optimize beam self-weight with its ultimate resistance capacity, ten reinforced concrete beams having a length, width, and depth of 2700, 100, and 400 mm, respectively were fabricated and tested as simply supported beams under one incremental concentrated load at mid-span until failure. The design parameters were the configuration and size of openings. Three main groups categorized experimental beams comprise the same area of openings and steel reinforcement details but differ in configurations. Three different shapes of openings were considered, mainly, rectangular, parallelogram, and circular. The experimental results indicate that, the beams with circular openings more efficient than the other configurations in ultimate load capacity and beams stiffness whereas, the beams with parallelogram openings were better than the beams with rectangular openings. Commonly, it was observed that the reduction in ultimate load capacity, for beams of group I, II, and III compared to the reference solid beam ranged between (75 to 93%), (65 to 93%), and (70 to 79%) respectively.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the flexural behavior of over-reinforced concrete beam enhancement by bolted-compression steel plate (BCSP) with normal reinforced concrete beams under laboratory experimental condition. Three beams developed with steel plates were tested until they failed in compression compared with one beam without a steel plate. The thicknesses of the steel plates used were 6 mm, 10 mm, and 15 mm. The beams were simply supported and loaded monotonically with two-point loads. Load-deflection behaviors of the beams were observed, analyzed, and evaluated in terms of spall-off concrete loading, peak loading, displacement at mid-span, flexural stiffness (service and post-peak), and energy dissipation. The outcome of the experiment shows that the use of a steel plate can improve the failure modes of the beams and also increases the peak load and flexural stiffness. The steel development beams dissipated much higher energies with an increase in plate thicknesses than the conventional beam.
