With the aim to model the seismic behavior of steel reinforced concrete (SRC) frame columns, in this research, hysteresis and skeleton curves were obtained based on the damage test results of SRC frame columns under low cyclic repeat loading and the hysteretic behavior of the frame columns was further analyzed. Then, the skeleton curve and hysteresis loops were further simplified. The simplified skeleton curve model was obtained through the corresponding feature points obtained by mechanical and regression analysis. The nonlinear combination seismic damage index, which was developed by the test results and can well reflect the effect of the loading path and the number of loading cycle of SRC frame columns, was used to establish the cyclic degradation index. The strength and stiffness degradation rule of the SRC frame columns was analyzed further by considering the effect of the accumulated damage caused by an earthquake. Finally, the hysteresis model of the SRC frame columns was established, and the specific hysteresis rules were given. The validity of the developed hysteresis model was verified by e comparison between the calculated results and the test results. The results showed that the model could describe the hysteresis characteristics of the SRC frame columns under cyclic loading and provide guidance for the elastoplastic time-history analysis of these structures.

In this paper, two joints of circular tubed steel-reinforced concrete (CTSRC) column were designed. The load-displacement hysteretic curve and skeleton curve of this new type of joint are obtained by the pseudostatic test under low cycle cyclic load on the top of the column. The results show that this new type of joint has good seismic energy dissipation performance. On the basis of the test, a three-fold skeleton curve model considering three characteristic points of yield, limit, and failure is proposed, and the expression of skeleton curve model is given. The load and unload stiffness degradation law of specimens under reciprocating load is studied, and the expression of stiffness degradation law is given. The hysteresis law of the new type joint specimens is described in detail. The validity of the model is verified by comparing the experimental curve with the model curve. The model can be used in the elastic-plastic seismic time-history analysis on the joint of circular tubed steel-reinforced concrete (CTSRC) column.

To investigate the applicability of the methods for calculating the bearing capacity of high-strength steel-reinforced concrete (SRC) composite columns according to specifications and the effect of confinement of stirrups and steel on the bearing capacity of SRC columns. The axial compression tests were conducted on 10 high-strength SRC columns and 4 ordinary SRC columns. The influences of the steel strength grade, the steel ratio, the types of stirrups and slenderness ratio on the bearing capacity of such members were examined. The analysis results indicate that using high-strength steel and improving the steel ratio can significantly enhance the bearing capacity of the SRC columns. When the slenderness ratio increases dramatically, the bearing capacity of the SRC columns plummets. As the confinement effect of the stirrups on the concrete improves, the utilization ratio of the high-strength steel in the SRC columns increases. Furthermore, the results calculated by AISC360-19(U.S.), EN1994-1-1-2004 (Europe), and JGJ138-2016(China) are too conservative compared with test results. Finally, a modified formula for calculating the bearing capacity of the SRC columns is proposed based on the confinement effect of the stirrups and steel on concrete. The results calculated by the modified formula and the finite element modeling results based on the confinement effect agree well with the test results.

Nonlinear finite element analysis of abnormal exterior joints consist of Steel Reinforced Concrete column and Reinforced Concrete beam was performed using ABAQUS computation program, the joints failure mode and the skeleton curve were calculated. Comparison with experimental results to prove the reliability of finite element analysis. Then, the paper analyzed different parameters which affect the joints loading capacity, the results indicate that to a certain extent, the eccentricity of the upper and lower column sections and steel ratio both have important effects on the stiffness and ultimate loading capacity of the joints; with the increment of the ratio of axial compression, the joints ductility will be reduced.

AbstractThis research paper presents an analysis of the corrosion properties of steel-reinforced concrete samples during immersion in 3.5 wt. % NaCl aqueous solution by measuring their response both cathodic and anodic polarization in order to determine the corrosion rates in the function of their calcium nitrate inhibitor content. This cheap inorganic inhibitor was added to the concrete mix in concentrations of 1% and 3% by weight of cement in addition to two different superplasticizers (MapeiDynamon SR 31 and Oxydtron). The compressive strengths of the so prepared samples were also checked according to the relevant European standard and were within the acceptable limits, so this inhibitor does not weaken this important property of the concrete samples.The test results on steel reinforced samples immersed in 3.5 wt. % NaCl aqueous solutions at room temperature showed promising corrosion mitigating effects just after 6 months testing period. After 6 months the lower corrosion currents (i.e. better corrosion resistance) for both types of superplasticizers were observed with those samples which contained 3% calcium nitrate inhibitor. The best result was observed with sample C4 (in this case 3% calcium nitrate was added to the mixture of cement+Oxydtron superplasticizer). The advantageous inhibition mechanism of nitrate anions is also discussed and interpreted.


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.

Horizontal impact tests of stainless steel–reinforced concrete piers with different reinforcement ratios at different impact velocities were carried out by using the ultra-high drop weight impact test system. Degree of piers damage after impact was comprehensively analyzed by measuring the acceleration of the impact body, the displacement of the top of the pier specimens, the strain of the steel bars, the rotation of the pier bottom, and the crack development of concrete. The test results showed that under the same impact velocity, with the decrease in reinforcement ratio, the peak acceleration of the impact body, the displacement of the top of pier specimens, the strain of steel bars, and the pier bottom rotation all increase. To a certain extent, increasing the reinforcement ratio of bridge piers can effectively reduce impact damage.

Reinforced concrete (RC) columns are the vital members in bridge under the action of earthquake. In this paper, a modified Park-Ang damage model with nonlinear combination of the deformation and the hysteretic energy is proposed as a measure of RC bridge columns damage. The nonlinear combination coefficient of the modified model has been calculated based on the 151 cyclic test results of flexure dominant reinforced concrete columns. In additional, the correlation between performance levels and the values of damage index is presented. It is suggested that the scatter of the modified model at different performance levels is significantly reduced compared to the original Park-Ang damage model. At last, the probabilistic capacity models for RC bridge columns are applied to perform a damage analysis.
