Analysis of Frp-reinforced Concrete Beam with Aramid Spirals as Compression Confinement

چکیده
This paper presents a method of analysis for the response of concrete beams reinforced with fibrereinforced-plastic (FRP) tension rods and aramid spirals. Three different kinds of longitudinal reinforcement are adopted; CFRP, AFRP and GFRP. Both under-reinforced and over-reinforced sections are described. It is found that the ratio of neutral axis depth and effective depth can be used as an indicator for FRP-reinforced beam with aramid spirals. Based on the computer solutions, a simple design chart is proposed.

Behaviors of Concrete Columns Confined with Both Spiral and Fiber Composites
Concrete columns confined with high-strength fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites can enhance the strength as well as the ductility of such structures. In recent years, the use of FRP composites to repair and strengthen existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures has been widely used. When the columns of existing RC structures are wrapped with FRP composites, the core concrete of such col...
متن کاملA Sample of International Production FRP Reinforcement for Concrete Structures
fi ber reinforced plastic (FRP) re. nforcement is one of the most promising new developments for concrete structures. FRP reinforcing elements provide lighter, easier to assemble, and more durable structures that are free of the deterioration caused by corrosion of steel. FRPs consist of synthetic or organic highstrength fibers, most of which are impregnated with a resin matrix. They are availa...

Flanged shear walls are used extensively in moderate- and high-rise buildings to resist lateral loads induced by earthquakes. The seismic performance of many buildings is, therefore, closely linked to the behavior of the reinforced concrete walls. They must be carefully designed to provide not only adequate strength, but also sufficient ductility to avoid brittle failure under strong lateral lo...
متن کاملForecasting of Shear Strength of Concrete Beam Reinforced with FRP Bar
This study develops a new approach for forecasting shear Strength of concrete beam without stirrups based on the artificial neural networks (ANN). Proposed ANN considers geometric and mechanical properties of cross section and FRP bars, and shear span-depth ratio. The ANN model is constructed from a set of experimental database available in the past literature. Efficiency of the ANN model was c...
متن کاملConcrete-Filled-Large Deformable FRP Tubular Columns under Axial Compressive Loading
The behavior of concrete-filled fiber tubes (CFFT) polymers under axial compressive loading was investigated. Unlike the traditional fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) such as carbon, glass, aramid, etc., the FRP tubes in this study were designed using large rupture strains FRP which are made of recycled materials such as plastic bottles; hence, large rupture strain (LRS) FRP composites are enviro...
