Reinforcement Design

Modern design of reinforced concrete structural members for shear is based on the theory of plasticity. This paper is written to contribute to the understanding of the inclination of the concrete strut in the inclined strut model for design of shear reinforcement in beams, which among others are used in Eurocode 2. The problem of inclination of the compression strut in truss model is analysed depending on shear reinforcement ratio and effectiveness ratio of concrete strength for compression. Also the understanding of necessary ductility in steel reinforcing bars is discussed in the paper and especially the needs of tests on translation capacity of the shear failure are here analysed. To explain these problems the paper gives a short introduction to the theory of plasticity of reinforced concrete in shear and the background for the equations, which are used in shear design according to Eurocode 2.

Old reinforced concrete buildings constructed around 1980’s in many developing countries have been designed against mainly gravity load. Beam-column joints in these buildings contain slightly or no shear reinforcement inside the panel zones due to the construction convenience, and are vulnerable to shear failure in beam-column joints under the action of earthquake loads, especially for the exterior beam-column joints. This experimental study aimed to investigate the seismic performance of five half-scale exterior beam-column joints simulating the joints in existing reinforced-concrete buildings with non-shear hoop details. The test results showed that the structural performances of the beam-column joints under earthquake including failure mode, load-drift ratio relationship, shear strain of the joints and energy dissipation are strongly affected by the amount of longitudinal reinforcing bars of beams.

Theoretical Results

Punching strength is a critical point in the design of flat slabs and due to the lack of a theoretical method capable of explaining this phenomenon, empirical formulations presented by codes of practice are still the most used method to check the bearing capacity of slab-column connections. This paper discusses relevant aspects of the development of flat slabs, the factors that influence the punching resistance of slabs without shear reinforcement and makes comparisons between the experimental results organized in a database with 74 slabs carefully selected with theoretical results using the recommendations of ACI 318, EUROCODE 2 and NBR 6118 and also through the Critical Shear Crack Theory, presented by Muttoni (2008) and incorporated the new fib Model Code (2010).

Introduction. Problem solving focused on the protection of buildings and structures from progressive collapse and minimization of resources, needed for this purpose, is becoming increasingly important. In many countries, including Russia, this type of protection is incorporated into national regulatory documents, and, therefore, any research, aimed at developing effective ways to protect structural systems from progressive collapse under special actions, is particularly relevant. In this regard, the present article aims to formulate effective strength criteria for such anisotropic materials as reinforced concrete to analyze plane stressed reinforced concrete structures exposed to sudden structural transformations caused by the removal of one of bearing elements. Materials and methods. To solve this problem, a variant of the generalized theory of plasticity of concrete and reinforced concrete, developed by G.A. Geniev, is proposed for application to the case of variable loading of a plane stressed reinforced concrete element. The acceptability of generalization of the strength criterion, pursuant to the theory of plasticity of concrete and reinforced concrete under static loading, and the applicability of this criterion to variable static-dynamic loading of reinforced concrete are used as the main hypothesis. An algorithm of an approximate method is presented as a solution to this problem; it allows to analyze the considered stress-strain state of plane stressed reinforced concrete elements. Results. The numerical analysis of the obtained solution, compared with the results of the experimental studies, was used to evaluate the designed strength criterion for reinforced concrete elements located in the area where the column is connected to the girder of a monolithic reinforced concrete frame in case of a sudden restructuring of a structural system. It is found out that the qualitative nature of the destruction pattern of the area under research, obtained in experiments, corresponds to the destruction pattern, identified by virtue of the analysis performed using the proposed criterion. Conclusions. The variant of the reinforced concrete strength criterion designated for the variable loading of a plane stressed reinforced concrete element and an algorithm for its implementation, based on the theory of plasticity of concrete and reinforced concrete developed by G.A. Geniev, is applicable to the analysis of a special limit state of reinforced concrete elements of structural systems of frames of buildings and structures.

Accidents of the cement manufacturers’ reinforced concrete silo structures frequently occurred currently in China, because of quality problems, causing enormous losses. The collapse status of a cement raw meal silo is investigated. Combined with the test results of the location and spacing of silo wall’s reinforcing bars, concrete strength, cracks and defects, the reasons for collapse of silo wall are analyzed and design recommendations for concrete silo structures are made. This can give reference to reinforced concrete silo structure design and construction in the future.

Shear Design

The exact effect that each of the basic shear design parameters exerts on the shear capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) beams without shear reinforcement (Vc) is still unclear. Previous research on this subject often yielded contradictory results, especially for reinforced high-strength concrete (HSC) beams. Furthermore, by simply adding Vc and the contribution of stirrups Vs to calculate the ultimate shear capacity Vu, current shear design practice assumes that the addition of stirrups does not alter the effect of shear design parameters on Vc. This paper investigates the validity of such a practice. Data on 656 reinforced concrete beams were used to train an artificial neural network model to predict the shear capacity of reinforced concrete beams and evaluate the performance of several existing shear strength calculation procedures. A parametric study revealed that the effect of shear reinforcement on the shear strength of RC beams decreases at a higher reinforcement ratio. It was also observed that the concrete contribution to shear resistance, Vc, in RC beams with shear reinforcement is noticeably larger than that in beams without shear reinforcement, and therefore most current shear design procedures provide conservative predictions for the shear strength of RC beams with shear reinforcement.Key words: analysis, artificial intelligence, beam depth, compressive strength, modeling, shear span, shear strength.

In the paper, the influence of longitudinal reinforcement on shear capacity of reinforced concrete members without shear reinforcement is discussed. The problem is analyzed on the basis of the author’s own test results and tests results reported in the professional literature. It has been concluded that longitudinal reinforcement has an effect on shear capacity especially in members of shear span-to-depth ratio a/d < 2,5. The test results have also been used to verify standard methods of calculating the shear capacity in reinforced concrete members without shear reinforcement given in Eurocode 2, ACI Standard 318 and Model Code 2010.

Reinforced concrete wide beams (WBS) have been used in construction buildings because its provide many advantages; reducing the reinforcement congestion, reducing the quantity of the required formwork, providing simplicity for replication, and decreasing the storey height. The current study presents the results of four full-scale wide RC beams in order to study their shear behavior and investigate the effectiveness of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) when using as shear reinforcement to improve the shear capacity of wide RC beams, one these beams was fabricated by (ANSYS) program this beam was unstrengthened with CFRP and without stirrups (control beam), the other two beams was strengthened with vertical and inclined CFRP sheet without stirrups and the last beam reinforced with shear stirrups (WBS). All beams casted with normal concrete strength (30 MPa), simply supported and under two point loads. The performances of these beams were measured in terms of; ultimate load, crack patterns, concrete and steel strains, deflection, and mode of failure. The results showed an increasing in ultimate load of strengthened beams with inclined, vertical CFRP and beam with shear reinforcement by (19.9%), (7.14%) and (39.8%) respectively as compared with the control beam, and this results means possibility of replacing the internal shear reinforcement with externally bonded CFRP.

This paper presents the findings of an experimental data on the effects of inclined shearreinforcement in reinforced concrete (RC) beam. Two types of shear reinforcement of RC beamwere investigated, conventional stirrups (vertical links) and inclined shear reinforcement (45degrees of inclined shear reinforcement). The RC beam with conventional stirrups wasdesignated as a control specimen. The RC beams with different types of shear reinforcementwere tested for shear under four-point loading system. Comparisons were made between bothtypes of RC beam on load-deflection, load-steel strain, load-concrete strain behaviour and modeof failure. The theoretical and experimental were calculated by using conventional formulation inaccordance to EC 2 in order to verify the experimental results. From the results, it was observedthat the RC beam with 45 degree inclined shear reinforcement improved structural performancein shear by approximately 20% and thus prolong the shear failure behaviour as compared to theRC beam with vertical links.
