Abstract. In the view of the project problem that concrete strength grade is lower than C15in reinforced concrete beam, we consider a composite technology strengthened with CFRP, and do some monotonic loading experiments on these beams with eight different methods, and discuss the beam force behavior including ultimate bearing capacity, failure model and crack propagation. This paper finds out that the composite reinforced scheme, which with ticking trough, planting steel displaces concrete and gluing and then pasting CFRP, has a remarkable improvement than pasting CFRP immediately, and that there is a high coherence workability in the old and new concrete, so we can give full play to their role as the CFRP high strength.

Based on earlier theoretical works on RC beams ,the mechanical properties of steel reinforced concrete beams strengthened with FRP(fiber reinforce polymer) are further investigated theoretically including theirs failure mechanism and loadability. According to the design method of reinforced concrete beam strengthened with FRP, steel reinforced concrete beam strengthened with FRP mainly can have three kinds of destruction patterns: the first case is the tensile steel yield, the tensile shaped steel yield, the FRP are put off, the compressive zone’s concrete has not crushed; the second case is the tensile steel yield, the tensile shaped steel yield, the FRP are put off; the compressive zone’s concrete has crushed; the last case is the tensile steel yield, the tensile shaped steel yield, the FRP are not put off, the compressive zone’s concrete has crushed. The second case is discussed in this paper.Based on the different position of middle axle and steel, steel concrete beams strengthened with FRP include: middle axle through the steel web, and not through the steel and just in steel compression flange . Aim at these three kind of situations, the stress are analysed. According to the stress patterns of steel reinforced concrete beams strengthened with FRP and different position between neutral axis and steel, the discriminant formula of the boundary destroys and the formula of cross-section flexural capacity calculation are put forward by using limit equilibrium theory.The formula is expressed clearly, simple and easy to use.The depth of compressive region is given in view of different failure types.

It is repair and reinforcement for damaged buildings that has become the main method to save investment and to avoid waste of resources. CFRP reinforcement is one of the reinforcement methods widely applied in recent years, which has advantages such as high strength, light self weight, small thickness, and good durability, etc. In this paper a reasonable constitutive model is selected and a simulation model of CFRP reinforced concrete beam is established by using ANSYS finite element software. The influences of different CFRP layers and concrete strength to the flexural property of reinforced concrete beams is analyzed in this paper. Moreover, a comparison is made with unreinforced concrete beams. The results show that the ultimate load of the beam reinforced by CFRP has greatly improved and mid-span deflection has been limited. With increase of CFRP layers, flexural property of the reinforced beam is enhanced. Under the circumstance of same number of CFRP layer, the higher the concrete strength is the better the reinforcement effect will be.

In this article, experiments focusing at the influence of steel–concrete bond damage on the dynamic stiffness of cracked reinforced concrete beams are reported. In these experiments, the bond between concrete and reinforcing bar was damaged using appreciate flexural loads. The static stiffness of cracked reinforced concrete beam was assessed using the measured load–deflection response under cycles of loading and unloading, and the dynamic stiffness was analyzed using the measured natural frequencies with and without sustained loading. Average moment of inertia model (Castel et al. model) for cracked reinforced beams by taking into account the respective effect of bending cracks (primary cracks) and the steel–concrete bond damage (interfacial microcracks) was adopted to calculate the static load–deflection response and the natural frequencies of the tested beams. The experimental results and the comparison between measured and calculated natural frequencies show that localized steel–concrete bond damage does not influence remarkably the dynamic stiffness and the natural frequencies both with and without sustained loading applied. Castel et al. model can be used to calculate the dynamic stiffness of cracked reinforced concrete beam by neglecting the effect of interfacial microcracks.

This study proposes a artificial neural network with genetic algorithm (GA-ANN) for predicting the torsional strength of reinforced concrete beam. Genetic algorithm is used to the optimal network structure and parameters. A database of the torsional failure of reinforced concrete beams with a rectangular section subjected to pure torsion was obtained from existing literature for analysis. This study compare the predictions of the GA-ANN model with the ACI 318 code used for analyzing the torsional strength of reinforced concrete beam. The results show that the proposed model provides reasonable predictions of the ultimate torsional strength of reinforced concrete beams and offers superior torsion accuracy compared to that of the ACI 318-89 equation.

The bending behavior of reinforced concrete beams under uniform pressure is critical for the research of the blast-resistance performance of structural components under explosive loads. In this study, a bending test of five reinforced concrete beams with the dimensions of 200 mm (width) × 200 mm (depth) × 2500 mm (length) under uniform load produced by a specific cylinder-shaped rubber bag filled with air or water was conducted to investigate their flexural performances. An air bag load was applied to three of the reinforced concrete beams, a water bag load was applied to one reinforced concrete beam, and the remainder beam was subjected to the 4-point bending load. The experimental results highlighted that the air bag and water bag loading methods can be used to effectively apply uniform loads to reinforced concrete beams. Moreover, the stiffness of the air bag was improved by 123% in accordance with the initial pressure increases from 0.15 to 0.45 MPa. In addition, a finite element model of the test loading system was established using ABAQUS/Standard software. Moreover, the critical factors of the air bag loading method were analyzed using the numerical model. The calculated results were found to be in good agreement with the test data. The established finite element model can therefore be used to accurately simulate the action performances of the uniform loading technique using rubber bags filled with air or water.
