Abstract: To study the flexural behaviour of plain cement concrete with self-compaction concrete using three point loading. We are using two different types of concrete (Plain Cement Concrete and Self Compaction Concrete). For this we are using M20 grade concrete. We cast cubes and beams of sizes 150x150x150mm and 150x150x700mm respectively.Based on the test results it is concluded that the flexural strength of the self-compaction concrete beams is more than the plain cement concrete beams. And in the combination also the flexural strength is more when the plain cement concrete layer is at the bottom while the selfcompaction concrete layer is at top.

This paper investigates the flexural performance of plain concrete beams bonded with wire mesh-epoxy composite. A total of four beam specimens were prepared and tested. Three specimens were bonded with same amount of wire mesh-epoxy composite with varying composite width and one plain concrete specimen was used as a control. The effect of wire mesh-epoxy composite on enhancing the flexural behaviour of concrete beams as well as the effect of different configurations of composite was studied. Test results showedthat the wire mesh-epoxy composite increased the flexural strength of concrete beams. The increase in energy absorption of bonded beams was remarkable. In addition, specimen with large composite width showed better behaviour with respect to energy absorption capability.

An experimental investigation was carried out to study shear carrying capacity and ultimate flexural moment of reinforced cement concrete beam. Two series of simply supported beams were prepared by varying diameter and spacing of shear and flexural reinforcement. Beams of cross section 230 mm X 300 mm and length of 2000 mm. During testing, maximum load, first crack load, deflection of beams were recorded. Test results indicated that decreasing shear spacing and decreasing its diameter resulted in decrease in deflection of beam and increase in bending moment and shear force of beam.

The method of applying prestress to CFRP plates can make full use of the characteristics of high-strength, enhance the force properties, prevent peeling damage and reduce the strain lag. Construction technology of prestressed CFRP plates strengthening reinforcement concrete beams was introduce in this paper, and bending test of 6 reinforcement concrete beams strengthened with prestressed CFRP plates were carried out based on the self-developed prestressed CFRP plates supporting anchorages. The test results indicate that the flexural capacity and crack resistance capacity can be increased compared with non-prestressed CFRP plates, and the construction technology can be adopted in practical projects.

This paper investigates the flexural performance of FRP/FRC hybrid reinforcement system as well as FRP/plain concrete beams. Test results showed that the crack widths of FRP/FRC beams were smaller than those of FRP/plain concrete beams at the different corresponding load. With the increase of load, the crack spacing slightly decreased. The plain concrete beams failed in a more brittle mode than the FRC beams. Once they reached their ultimate moments, the load dropped fleetly. Compared to the companion beam, the addition of fibers improved the flexural behavior.

Recently, many structures which were built about 30 years ago are watched by reconstruction. Demolished concrete is occurred in the process and these quantity increase about 10% more than the preceding year. Fortunately, recycled aggregates are produced from demolished concrete, whereas the recycled aggregates are not used often because there are not many researches which have been verified by experts or researchers about strength when reinforced concrete is made with recycled aggregates. In this paper, high strength reinforced concrete is valued with potential applications and check change of strength when it made by recycled aggregates. For this, flexural tests of 4 high strength reinforced concrete beams with recycled aggregates were performed, and the high strength reinforced concrete beams were tested within the limits such as compressive strength, flexural strength, ductility, strain, and curvature. The current test data were examined in terms of flexural strength, along with the data from previously tested reinforced concrete beams with recycled aggregates.

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.

Based on the maintenance requirement of seaport wharf, the glass tubes filled with TY-6638 polyester adhesive or cyanogen gel adhesive were embedded in the self-repairing concrete to make the simply supported beams. Through the third-point bending experiment, the repairing capability and its influencing factors of two kinds of adhesive beams were analyzed from loading capacity and flexibility. The results show the loading capacity of cyanogen gel adhesive beams and polyester adhesive beams can be restored averagely to more than 90.0% after repair,so self-repairing concrete for maintenance of seaport wharf is technically feasible, it deserves to be studied farther.

In order to explore the flexural behavior of CFRP reinforced pre-stressed concrete (PC) beams with initial cracks, 6 pre-tensioned beams were manufactured. Then the beams were pre-loaded to crack with 40% and 60% ultimate load respectively, and the beams were strengthened by CFRP under the conditions of load holding and fully unloaded. After that, the four-points bending tests were performed, and beam section strains, flexural capacities and cracks were analyzed. The results demonstrate that the ultimate load of CFRP reinforced beams increased by 10%~18%, and the ultimate loads of CFRP reinforced load holding beams were 3% and 6% lower than that of CFRP reinforced non-destructive beam, and the inhibiting effect of CFRP on cracks was weakened, the hysteresis strains should be considered for them. In this paper, the fiber hysteresis strains were calculated by the method of full section decompression moment, and the flexural capacities of CFRP reinforced PC beams were calculated, which are in good agreement with the test results.
