This study proposes a simple and rational stress-strain relationship model applicable to brick masonry under compression. The brick prism compression tests were conducted with different mortar strengths and with constant brick strength. From the observation of the test results, shape of the stress-strain curve is assumed to be parabola. In developing the stress-strain model, the modulus of elasticity, the strain at peak stress, and the strain at 50% of the peak stress on the descending branch were formulated from regression analysis using test data. Numerical and statistical analyses were then performed to derive equations for the key parameter to determine the slopes at the ascending and descending branches of the stress-strain curve shape. The reliability of the proposed model was examined by comparisons with actual stress-strain curves obtained from the tests and the existing model. The proposed model in this study turned out to be more accurate and easier to handle than previous models so that it is expected to contribute towards the mathematical simplicity of analytical modeling.

More attention has been paid on the technology of BFRP in civil engineering due to it’s unique properties, such as high strength-to-weight radio, good resistance to corrosion and convenient to construction. In order to study the properties of BFRP sheets confined concrete column ,we did it through three groups of columns subjected to axial loading tests and FEM analyses, mainly considering the effect of spacing of straps of BFRP sheets confining concrete column.The results shows that the axial compressive strength and ductility of concrete column winded by BFRP straps have all increased and the process of destruction of concrete column wrapped by BFRP is longer than that of the unconfined concrete column.

Glulam bamboo has been preliminarily explored for use as a structural building material, and its stress–strain model under axial loading has a fundamental role in the analysis of bamboo components. To study the tension and compression behaviour of glulam bamboo, the bamboo scrimber and laminated bamboo as two kinds of typical glulam bamboo materials were tested under axial loading. Their mechanical behaviour and failure modes were investigated. The results showed that the bamboo scrimber and laminated bamboo have similar failure modes. For tensile failure, bamboo fibres were ruptured with sawtooth failure surfaces shown as brittle failure; for compression failure, the two modes of compression are buckling and compression shear failure. The stress–strain relationship curves of the bamboo scrimber and laminated bamboo are also similar. The tensile stress–strain curves showed a linear relationship, and the compressive stress–strain curves can be divided into three stages: elastic, elastoplastic and post-yield. Based on the test results, the stress–strain model was proposed for glulam bamboo, in which a linear equation was used to describe the tensile stress–strain relationship and the Richard–Abbott model was employed to model the compressive stress–strain relationship. A comparison with the experimental results shows that the predicted results are in good agreement with the experimental curves.

The stress-strain relationship of Grade 275 steel reinforcing bar under cyclic (reversed) loading is examined using experimental results obtained previously from eleven test specimens to which a variety of axial loading cycles has been applied. A Ramberg-Osgood function is fitted to the experimental stress-strain curves to follow the cyclic stress-strain behaviour after the first load run in the plastic range. The empirical constants in the function are determined by regression analysis and are found to depend mainly on the plastic strain imposed
in the previous loading run. The monotonic stress-strain curve for the steel, with origin of strains suitably adjusted, is assumed to be the envelope curve giving the upper limit of stress. The resulting Ramberg-Osgood expression and envelope is found to give good agreement with the experimentally measured cyclic stress-strain curves.

For the effect of environmental temperature on the rubber material stress-strain relationships, rubber tensile specimens, compression specimens and shear specimens were made. Through the electronic universal testing machine Instron 5500R, the stress-strain curves of three kinds of specimens at different temperatures were obtained. The test results showed that the stress-strain relationship of rubber material was typically nonlinear. As the temperature increased, the elastic modulus of rubber material decreased.

Hybrid Concrete Column (HCC) is composite column consists of two types of concrete, Normal Concrete (NC) and Self Compacted Concrete (SCC). The main objective of this work is to study the effect of outer to inner diameter ratio of hybrid concrete on the ultimate strength of column under the axial loading. Ten scaled columns (150 mm diameter and 600 mm length) were fabricated and cast with different ratio of NC to SCC and tested under axial loading. The test results were presented in term of loading and the axial and lateral strains at mid span of column length. It was found that the ultimate strength of column increased from 281 kN to 605 kN (215%). Also it was found that the strength of column increased when the SCC is in inner thickness rather than in outer thickness of the column and the strength increased with increasing the inner thickness of SCC.

AbstractThe stress-strain relationship of the sand and asphalt concrete materials is one of the most important research subjects in the past, and many conctitutive laws for these materials have been proposed in the last two decades. In this study, the Vermeer plasticity model is modified and used to predict the behavior of the sand and asphalt concrete materials under different stress path conditions. The results show that the predictions and test results agree well under different stress path conditions. However, the orignal Vermeer model can not predict the stress-strain behavior of the asphalt concrete. Finally, the modified Vermeer plasticity model is incorporated with the pavement rutting model to predict the rut depth of pavement structure under traffic loadings.

An experimental and analytical study on the application of Steel Strapping Tensioning Technique (SSTT) confinement on twelve high-strength concrete cylinder specimens with dimension of 100 mm and 200 mm in diameter and height respectively has been studied and presented throughout this paper. The specimens were volumetric-identically confined with two different confining materials of different mechanical properties and lateral pre-tensioning stresses, namely SSTT(HC) and SSTT(SS). All concrete specimens were tested under uniaxial compression load. The performance of SSTT-type confined specimens were studied through their stress-strain relationship upon the longitudinal and transverse deformation, mode of failure, level of lateral pre-tensioning stress, and dilatancy behaviour. The results show that high-strength concretes confined with SSTT would significantly reduce the brittleness problem and at the same time, enhancing both ultimate compressive strength and ductility up to 65% and 344%, 36% and 269% for both SSTT(HC) and SSTT(SS), respectively. Those specimens confined with higher lateral pre-tensioning stress exhibits smaller radial expansion and higher rate of axial strain, able to slow down the dilation of confined specimens under loading and thus, helps in enhancing the compressive capacity and ductility. In addition, an analytical comparison between SSTT-type confinement and conventional confinement models have been presented and the results show a linear relationship between the compressive strength enhancement and confinement ratio. Current experimental results were also validated by comparing the observed stress-strain relationship proposed by Mander.
