This paper presents an experimental investigation on the behavior of bubbled wide reinforced concrete beams with different shear steel plate spacing. Four specimens with the dimensions of 215x560x1800mm are investigated. The variables studied in this work is using the 10mm stirrups with 125mm spacing and 3mm thickness steel plate with spacing 125, 166 and 250mm instead of reinforcing stirrups. Shear steel plates is good alternative for replacing the stirrups and gives increasing in yield and ultimate loads with 17% and 18% respectively and decreasing the deflection by 8% at yield and 12% at ultimate. Moreover decrease the strain in longitudinal reinforcement by 8% at yield and 24% at ultimate, and reduced the total weight by 2.7%. By increasing the spacing of shear steel plate by 33% and 100%, the results showed that the yield load reduced to 3% and 4% respectively, but the deflection was increased with 37% and 20% (at yield). The strain in interior legs is more than the strain in exterior legs by 189%, 142% and 52% at yield for spacing 125, 166 and 250mm respectively. ACI 318-14 [1] and EC 2 [2] codes give a predicted deflection more than the experimental deflection by 26% and 30% on average 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.

In the past few years, new techniques have emerged using steel plates instead of traditional reinforcement in the reinforced concrete beams. This study deals with using a new method for reinforced concrete beams using steel plates instead of traditional steel bars with different thicknesses of (4, 5, and 6 mm) placed vertically inside the lower part of the beam. Four reinforced concrete beams were cast and tested under a two-point load. All beams had the same cross-sectional area of reinforcement and dimensions of 2100 mm in length, 350 mm in height, and 250 in width. The results showed that as the thickness of the steel plate increases, the samples would have greater resistance until more deflection is produced. In addition, there is a reduction in the crack load, ultimate load, and yield load when replacing reinforcing bars with steel plates. In which, a reduction in crack load by about 11.1, 15.5, and 22.2% plate thicknesses of 4,5,6 mm respectively, compared to reference beam that had a deformed steel bar (Dia. 16 mm). In addition, a reduction in yielding load was observed about 42, 53, and 60% for steel plate thickness of 4, 5, and 6 mm respectively, compared to the reference model. Finally, the cracks for all the steel plate specimens compared to reference specimens were wider and smaller.

Strength And Ductility

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the strength of bubbled wide reinforced concrete beams with different types of shear steel plates. Eight specimens with dimensions of 215x560x1800mm were investigated. The studied variables deal with replacement of 10mm stirrups diameter stirrups spaced at 125mm by shear steel plates having equivalent cross-sectional area for stirrups at mid legs height with circular opening of different thicknesses (3, 4 and 5mm). Four specimens were without any bubbles and the others with bubbles. This study showed that the shear steel plates is a good alternative for replacing the stirrups and gives increasing in yield, ultimate load and deflection (at service load) with 5% , 15% and 9% on the average when using the bubbles. Without using bubbles, the aspect ratio of shear steel plates bounded between the boundaries 4.5 to 8 gave increased the ductility by 36%. Using the bubbles in specimens was decreased 4.7% from the total weight of specimens. ACI 318-14(1) and EC 2(2) codes give a predicted deflection more than that obtained from experimental results by 16% on the average and by 24% when using bubbles.

This paper presents a three-dimensional nonlinear finite elemental analysis about the reinforcement concrete beams strengthened by bolting steel plate. The contact effects between the steel plate with reinforced concrete beam surface was simulated by developing the contact elements. The effect of strengthening is analyzed and the effects of the deformation and stress distribution of anchor bolt on the failure mode were investigated. It is declared that this strengthening method can obviously improve the capacity and stiffness of beam, and the flexural deformation of anchor bolt is key problem inducing the failure of strengthened beam.

In recent years, new methods have developed utilizing steel plates instead of deformed steel bar reinforcement in the concrete beams. This paper presents the utilization of a new proposed approach for replacing the main flexural reinforcement concrete beams by steel checker plates of (6mm) thickness. Four reinforced concrete beams were cast and tested under two-point load. All beams had the same cross-sectional area of reinforcement and the dimensions of 210 cm in length, 35 cm in height and 25cm in width. The result show there was a reduction in crack load, yield load, and ultimate load of steel plate as compared to steel bar, Whereas increased with increasing cross-sectional area of the steel. Once, the increment in crack load and yield load of steel plate were 25.5% and 16,67% more than steel bar whereas the same increment was found in ultimate load for both steel bar and steel plate. The measured crack load and ductility for steel plate was 16.7% more than steel bar when increasing cross-sectional area of steel. The deflection past of failure for steel plate has a considerable deflection before failure than steel bar. Finally, the observations show cracks have been much wider and less in range for all steel plate samples in comparison with the steel bar.

In this work aims at studying the influence of steel plate on the deflection of self- compacted reinforced concrete beams was investigated experimentally in this study to know the flexural behavior of these beams. Eight simply supported reinforced concrete beam were tested under the action of two point loads .The deflections of the beams with and without plate are measured. The steel plates of thickness (3 mm) with dimensions ( 170 × 350 mm) were used. These plates were sticked on the concrete beams using epoxy. The steel plate inside the beam was sticked with and without epoxy (epoxy type EP), while the beams were taken with and without opening (10 mm diameter). The results show that the plate increased the capacity of the beam by increased the value of failure load. Hence, the beam with internal plate with epoxy increased the failure load by 34.2% than beam without plate , and 24.6% than beam with internal plate without epoxy , and 19.7% than beam with external plate with epoxy .

This study presents experimental work including an investigation conducted on five simply supported reinforced concrete beams under pure torsion. First beam without strengthening as a control beam. The other four beams were strengthened externally by bolted thin steel plates. For this test the load was applied gradually. The torque was increased gradually up to failure of the beam.  The variables were the thickness and height of the steel plate that was externally connected to both sides of the rectangular reinforced concrete beam. The test results for the beams discussed are based on torque-twist behavior. The experimental results show that the attachment of thin steel plates by mechanical means to beams provides a considerable improvement in the torsional behavior of the reinforced concrete beams. Comparable to the reference beam, the maximum increase in the cracking and the ultimate torque of the composite beam was recorded for the reinforced concrete beam that strengthen by steel plate of (150) mm height, (2mm) thickness and (50mm) spacing between shear connectors (B1). The results revealed that the cracking torque, ultimate torque, global stiffness of beam and beam ductility for all composite beams increase with the increase of the plate's thickness, plate's height.
