Mechanical Behavior of 3 high-strength concrete simply supported beams reinforced by HRBF500 steel with different stirrup ratio are simulated by software OpenSees .In order to establish the constitutive relationship of high-strength concrete more accurately, some parameters of modified Kent-Park were adjusted partly. Furthermore, the restraining effect of different stirrup ratio to the core concrete is considered by the concrete strength rasied coefficient k. The analysis results matched the test ones well, indicating that the OpenSees program is effective to simulate the mechanical behavior of high-strength concrete members reinforced by high-strength steel.

Comparative analysis of the effect of the Mechanical Properties of inner set CFRP round pipe to components ; Studying on the effect of Mechanical Properties of Square Steel Tubular High-strength concrete inner set CFRP round pipe under with different arrangement ratio of CFRP and strength grade of concrete. Based on calculation we can see under cyclic loading Square Steel Tubular High-strength concrete inner set CFRP round pipe beams have quite different failure characteristics with Ordinary beams, the curve of moment-curvature is plump, having good energy absorption capacity and seismic behavior;The arrangement ratio of CFRP and the strength grade of concrete have great influence to the seismic behavior; of Square Steel Tubular High-strength concrete inner set CFRP round pipe beams, with the increasing of the layer number of CFRP round pipe, the improving of concrete strength grade, seismic behavior;of the beams is significant strengthened. Showing that inner set CFRP round pipe can significantly increase seismic behavior of Square Steel Tubular High-strength concrete beams.

This article describes an experimental program developed to study the influence of longitudinal prestress on the behaviour of high-strength concrete hollow beams under pure torsion. The pre-cracking, the post-cracking and the ultimate behaviour are analysed. Three tests were carried out on large hollow high-strength concrete beams with similar concrete strength. The variable studied was the level of longitudinal uniform prestress. Some important conclusions on different aspects of the beams’ behaviour are presented. These conclusions, considered important for the design of box bridges, include the influence of the level of prestress in the cracking and ultimate behaviour.

Structures located in seismic zones require significant ductility. It is necessary to examine the bond slip characteristics of high strength concrete under cyclic loading. The cyclic bond of high strength concrete is investigated under different parameters, including load history, confining reinforcement, bar diameter, concrete strength, and the rate of pull out. The bond strength, cracking, and deformation are highly dependent on the bond slip behavior between the rebar and the concrete under cyclic loading. The results of cyclic testing indicate that an increase in cyclic displacement will lead to more severe bond damage. The slope of the bond stress – displacement curve can describe the influence of the rate of loading on the bond strength in a cyclic test. Specimens with steel confinement sustained a greater number of cycles than the specimens without steel confinement. It has been found that the maximum bond strength increases with an increase in concrete strength. Cyclic loading does not affect the bond strength of high strength concrete as long as the cyclic slip is less than the maximum slip for monotonic loading. The behavior of high strength concrete under a cyclic load is slightly different from that of normal strength concrete.Key words: bond, high strength, cyclic loading, bar spacing, loading rate, failure mechanism.

Urbanization and industrialization have dramatically increased the manufacture of cement causing substantial pollution of the environment. The primary global concern related to cement manufacture has been the management of the large carbon footprints. The usages of environmentally friendly cementitious materials in the construction of structures have proved to be a viable option to deal with this environmental concern. Therefore, it is necessary to further explore the usage of cementitious materials which can replace cement albeit partially. In this direction of research, two such cementitious materials, namely, natural zeolite and metakaolin have been investigated in this study. High-strength concrete M60 with natural zeolite and metakaolin as the partial replacements for the cement has been prepared in this work. Polycarboxylic ether-based superplasticizer solution has been used to enhance workability. The test specimen cast and cured for 3, 7, 28, 60, and 90 days at ambient room temperature has been tested for compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength as per the Indian standards. The optimum mix of high-strength concrete thus manufactured has met the Indian standards, and the combination of cement +5% natural zeolite +10% metakaolin has exhibited the highest compressive, split tensile, and flexural strengths at 90 days of curing. Natural zeolite and metakaolin when used in smaller proportions have increased the concrete strength, and these materials are recommended for partial replacement of cement.

This paper presents an application of high strength concrete to concrete-encased composite frame building based on an experimental program. The work emphasized joints behavior under reverse cyclic loading caused by earthquakes to provide information for seismic design. To investigate the internal mechanisms and seismic performance, cyclic loading tests were carried out on five half-scale interior joints. Two design variables were addressed in the research: concrete strength and axial column load. Frame joints performance including crack pattern, failure mode, deformation, ductility, strain distribution, and energy dissipation capacity was investigated. It was found that all joint specimens behaved in a manner with joint panel shear failure. Using high strength concrete increased the joint strength and had relatively little effect on the stiffness and ductility. The axial column load helped the joint strength by better mobilizing the outer part of the joint, but it had an obvious influence on the ductility and energy-dissipating capacity, which can be improved by providing enough transverse reinforcement. A typical crack pattern was also provided which can well reflect mechanical character and damage process. This research should contribute to the future engineering applications of high strength concrete to concrete-encased composite structure.

The article is devoted to the analysis of technical and economic efficiency of application of high-strength concrete (HSC) in the eccentrically compressed columns. In the first part of the paper, the effect of concrete grade on in-creasing the column stiffness depending on steel ratio at different values of the relative eccentricity is considered. According to the results of the calculation, application of HSC is most effective at low values of the relative ec-centricity because increasing the concrete strength leads to more intensive increasing of column stiffness than increasing of steel ratio. In the second part of the paper, the material cost of the 1 linear meter of the column is calculated at the fixed value of column stiffness and application domain of HSC is defined in the case under consideration. In addition, load characteristics providing the efficiency of HSC application in the eccentrically compressed columns are determined.
