In this paper the results of 18 pull tests performed on clay brick masonry prisms strengthened with near-surface mounted carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips are presented. The pull tests were designed to add to the existing database and investigate variables significant to masonry construction. FRP was bonded to solid clay brick masonry; FRP aligned both perpendicular and parallel to the bed joint; and in the case of FRP reinforcement aligned parallel to the bed joint, compression applied perpendicular to the strip was used to simulate vertical compression load in masonry walls. Results including bond strength, critical bond length, and the local bond-slip relationship are presented as well as a discussion on the effect of the new variables on these results. 相似文献

The local bond mechanics of glass-fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars in normal strength concrete was investigated through experimental testing and analytical modeling. The experimental program was comprised of 30 direct tension pullout specimens with short anchorages. A novel test setup, specially designed so as to minimize the spurious influence of testing conditions on measured bond properties was adopted in the study. Parameters considered were the bar roughness and diameter, the size effect expressed by the constant cover to bar diameter ratio, and the external confining pressure exerted over the anchorage length by transverse externally bonded FRP sheets. Results of the study were summarized in the form of local bond-slip curves, whereby performance limit states were quantified by the amount of loaded end slip and bond strength. An analytical model of the bond stress-slip response of a GFRP bar was derived from first principles and calibrated against the test data of the present investigation. Using the calibrated model, design values for bond and slip were estimated with reference to the code limit state model for bond. 相似文献

Strengthening of Infill Masonry Walls with FRP Materials 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper evaluates the effectiveness of different externally bonded glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) systems for increasing the out-of-plane resistance of infill masonry walls to loading. The research included a comprehensive experimental program comprising 14 full-scale specimens, including four unstrengthened (control) specimens and 10 strengthened specimens. To simulate the boundary conditions of infill walls, all specimens consisted of a reinforced concrete (RC) frame, simulating the supporting RC elements of a building superstructure, which was infilled with solid concrete brick masonry. The specimens were loaded out-of-plane using uniformly distributed pressure to simulate the differential (suction) pressure induced by a tornado. Parameters investigated in the experimental program included aspect ratio, FRP coverage ratio, number of masonry wythes, and type of FRP anchorage. Test results indicated that the type of FRP anchorage had a significant effect on the failure mode. Research findings concluded that GFRP strengthening of infill masonry walls is effective in increasing the out-of-plane load-carrying capacity when proper anchorage of the FRP laminate is provided. 相似文献

Bond Between Near-Surface Mounted Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Laminate Strips and Concrete 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In recent years, a strengthening technique based on near-surface mounted (NSM) laminate strips of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) has been used to increase the load-carrying capacity of concrete and masonry structures by introducing laminate strips into precut grooves on the concrete cover of the elements to be strengthened. The high experimentally derived levels of strength efficacy with concrete columns, beams, and masonry panels have presented NSM as a viable and promising technique. This practice requires no surface preparation work and, after cutting the groove, requires minimal installation time compared to the externally bonded reinforcing technique. A further advantage associated with NSM CFRP is its ability to significantly reduce the probability of harm resulting from fire, acts of vandalism, mechanical damage, and aging effects. To assess the bond behavior of CFRP to concrete, pullout-bending tests have been carried out. The influences of bond length and concrete strength on bond behavior are analyzed, the tests are described, and the results are presented and discussed in detail. Finally, a local stress-slip relationship is determined based on both experimental results and a numerical strategy. 相似文献

Realistic Bond Strength of FRP Rebars in NSC from Beam Specimens 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Roman Okelo 《Canadian Metallurgical Quarterly》2007,20(3):133-140
The bond strength of reinforcing bars in concrete is a prerequisite for the evaluation of the development length in reinforced concrete structures. This study concerns these phenomena for fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars in normal strength concrete (NSC). Three different types of rebars were tested using the beam specimen: Carbon, glass, and steel. This involved a total of 26 beam specimens containing 10, 16, and 19?mm rebars. The test embedment lengths were 10, 15, and 20 times the rebar diameter (db). For each rebar tested, the results concern load deflection curves, bond stress-slip responses, and the mode of failure. The results showed that the bond strength of a FRP rebar is, generally, lower than that of steel rebar. Based on this and previous research, proposals for the average bond strength and for the development length of straight FRP rebars under tension in NSC are made. 相似文献

A new analytical method for defining the nonlinear bond stress–slip models of fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) sheet–concrete interfaces through pullout bond test is proposed. With this method, it is not necessary to attach many strain gauges on the FRP sheets for obtaining the strain distributions in FRP as well as the local bond stresses and slips. Instead, the local interfacial bond stress-slip models can be simply derived from the relationships between the pullout forces and loaded end slips. Based on a series of pullout tests, the bond stress–slip models of FRP sheet–concrete interfaces, in which different FRP stiffness, FRP materials (carbon FRP, aramid FRP, and glass FRP), and adhesives are used, have been derived. Only two parameters, the interfacial fracture energy and interfacial ductility index, which can take into account the effects of all interfacial components, are necessary in these models. Comparisons between analytical results and experimental ones show good accordance, indicating the reliability of the proposed method and the proposed bond stress–slip models. 相似文献

A two-dimensional (2D) nonlinear numerical analysis code by using the rigid body spring method (RBSM) was developed by the writers at Hokkaido University to simulate the behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) members strengthened with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets. The code supports the nonlinear constitutive laws for the different materials and nonlinear bond stress-slip relationships for steel-concrete and FRP sheet-concrete interfaces. This study uses the aforementioned code to examine the uniaxial tension behavior of RC members strengthened with carbon fiber sheets (CFS). Experimental results are compared with relevant numerical outputs to validate the model and confirm its ability to simulate the experimental observations. This study also assesses the influence of the amount of CFS strengthening on the tension-stiffening behavior of strengthened members. Finally, this research also suggests new analytical expressions for the average stress-strain relationships of concrete and steel in tension in the presence of stiffening contributions from internal steel reinforcement bars and externally bonded CFS reinforcement. 相似文献

A combined experimental and numerical program was conducted to study the in-plane shear behavior of clay brick masonry walls strengthened with near surface mounting carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips. This paper is focused on the numerical program. A two-dimensional finite-element (FE) model was used to simulate the behavior of FRP-strengthened wall tests. The masonry was modeled using the micromodeling approach. The FRP was attached to the masonry mesh using the shear bond-slip relationships determined from experimental pull tests. The model was designed in a way so that FRP crossing a sliding crack (perpendicularly) would prevent crack opening, normal to the direction of sliding (dilation), and increase sliding resistance. This sliding resisting mechanism was observed in the experimental tests. The FE model reproduced the key behaviors observed in the experiments, including the load-displacement response, crack development, and FRP reinforcement contribution. The FE model did not include masonry cracking adjacent to the FRP and through the wall thickness (as observed in some experiments). This type of cracking resulted in premature FRP debonding in the experiments. Debonding did not occur in the FE model because this type of masonry cracking was not modeled. 相似文献

Experimental Response of Externally Retrofitted Masonry Walls Subjected to Shear Loading 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Recent earthquakes have produced extensive damage in a large number of existing masonry buildings, demonstrating the need for retrofitting masonry structures. Externally bonded carbon fiber is a retrofitting technique that has been used to increase the strength of reinforced concrete elements. Sixteen full-scale shear dominant clay brick masonry walls, six with wire-steel shear reinforcement, were retrofitted with two configurations of externally bonded carbon fiber strips and subjected to shear loading. The results of the experimental program showed that the strength of the walls could be increased 13–84%, whereas, their displacement capacity increased 51–146%. This paper presents an analysis of the experimental results and simple equations to estimate the cracking load and the maximum shear strength of clay brick masonry walls, retrofitted with carbon fiber. 相似文献

Behavior of Brick Masonry Vaults Strengthened by FRP Laminates 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Maria Rosa Valluzzi Maurizio Valdemarca Claudio Modena 《Canadian Metallurgical Quarterly》2001,5(3):163-169
The results of experimental research on brick masonry vaults strengthened at their extrados or at their intrados by fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strips is presented here. The presence of the fibers prevents the typical brittle collapse that occurs in a plain arch because of the formation of four hinges; therefore, depending on the position and amount of the reinforcement in the strengthened vaults, three mechanisms are possible: (1) masonry crushing, (2) detachment of the fibers; and (3) sliding along a mortar joint due to the shear stresses. Some first theoretical approaches describing some of these mechanisms are discussed, and the formulation of further models based on the local interaction among the constituent materials is proposed. Six masonry vaults strengthened by glass FRPs or carbon FRPs have been tested. The results have pointed out the enhancement in strength and ductility of the strengthened vaults and the influence in the ultimate strength of the width of the strips and of the bond between the laminate and the masonry. 相似文献

FRP Confinement of Tuff and Clay Brick Columns: Experimental Study and Assessment of Analytical Models 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

In recent years, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping effectiveness has been clearly confirmed especially with reference to concrete structures. Despite evident advantages of FRP based confinement on members subjected to compressive overloads due to static or seismic actions, the use of such technique in the field of masonry has not been fully explored. Thus, to assess the potential of confinement of masonry columns, the present paper shows the results of an experimental program dealing with 18 square cross sections (listed faced tuff or clay brick) masonry scaled columns subjected to uniaxial compression load. In particular, three different confinement solutions have been experimentally analyzed in order to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of uniaxial glass FRP, carbon FRP, and basalt FRP laminates wrapping. The main experimental outcomes are presented and discussed in the paper considering mechanical behavior of specimens, axial stress-axial strain relationships, and effective strains at failure on the reinforcement. Test results have showed that the investigated confining systems are able to provide significant gains both in terms of compressive strength and ductility of masonry columns. Results of the presented experimental activity along with data available in the literature have been finally used to assess the reliability of the main existing analytical models; refined equations have been then proposed to minimize the scattering between theoretical predictions and experimental available data. 相似文献

The development/splice strength and the pullout local bond stress-slip response of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars in tension were experimentally investigated using beam specimens and pullout specimens, respectively. Two types of 12-mm (0.47-in.)-diameter GFRP bars were evaluated, namely, thread wrapped and ribbed. The test parameters included the concrete cover, the splice length, and the area of steel confinement for the beam specimens, and the concrete compressive strength for the pullout specimens. Companion steel reinforced beams were also tested for comparison. All beam specimens reinforced with thread-wrapped GFRP bars experienced pullout mode of bond failure, while all specimens reinforced with ribbed GFRP bars or steel bars experienced splitting mode of bond failure. It was found that the bond strength of FRP bars is largely dependent on the surface conditions of the bars. The pullout local bond stress-slip response of ribbed GFRP bars is intrinsically similar to that of steel bars reported in the literature. The bond strength of both types of GFRP bars investigated was about two to three times lower than that of steel bars. Predictions of the development/splice strength of GFRP bars in accordance with the ACI Committee 440 guidelines were unconservative in comparison with the test data. Also, in contradiction with the current ACI 440 report, the use of transverse confining reinforcement increased the bond strength by a sizable 15–30%. 相似文献

Understanding the transfer of force by bond between externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement and concrete is an important step in formulating good models for predicting debonding failures observed in externally bonded reinforcement strengthened systems. In this paper, a 3D optical displacement measurement system was used to capture the full-field displacements from the front and side view in pull-off bond specimens. The experiments were carried using six specimens with carbon FRP (CFRP) strips having different axial stiffnesses but a constant bond length to the concrete substrate. Using the optical measurements, it was possible to obtain the in-plane displacement or slip and the out-of-plane displacement or separation between the CFRP strip and the concrete. It was demonstrated, that the usual assumption of pure shear stresses in such pull-off tests is not true and that the bond behavior is a two-dimensional problem involving shear and peeling stresses. The bond behavior in CFRP strip to concrete pull-off tests was characterized by three stages: (1) the initiation of the first crack; (2) the initiation of debonding; and (3) failure by complete debonding. Based on the test results it was found that there was a dependency between the maximum bond shear stress, the maximum fracture energy of the FRP-concrete interface, and the stiffness of the FRP. However, the slip values after initiation of debonding (Stage 2) were independent of the FRP stiffness. The measured anchorage force and anchorage length were in good agreement with predictions from existing code equations. 相似文献

The strengthening of reinforced concrete structures by means of externally bonded fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) is becoming an attractive technique for upgrading existing structures. Although previous laboratory investigations have shown that the bending capacities of beams can be increased considerably with this strengthening technique, premature failure by debonding of the FRP reinforcement can often limit its effectiveness. To gain insight into debonding phenomena, various experimental and analytical investigations of the behavior of bonded FRP-to-concrete joints have been carried out. However, such studies have generally been limited to monotonic (“static”) loading conditions. In this paper, we present results from an experimental investigation of bonded FRP-to-concrete joints under cyclic loading. First, we describe the experimental setup and test parameters. Next experimental results for the effects of cyclic loading on slip at the FRP–concrete interface, crack opening, and strain profiles along the bonded FRP joint are presented and discussed. A power-law expression for the so-called “S–N” curves (cyclic stress ranges versus numbers of cycles to failure) is proposed, and the parameters in this expression are determined from the experimental data. The influence of various parameters such as bond length, bond width, and cyclic bond stress levels on fatigue behavior are discussed. 相似文献

Strengthening of Masonry Walls against Out-of-Plane Loads Using Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Reinforcement 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Thirty masonry walls strengthened using three different fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) systems, with three anchorage methods, were fabricated and tested under a concentrated load over a 100 mm square area or a patch load over a 500 mm square area. The test results indicated a significant increase in the out-of-plane wall strength over the unstrengthened wall. While failure occurred in the unstrengthened wall by bending, four different modes of failure, that is, punching shear through the bricks, debonding of FRP reinforcement from the masonry substrate, crushing of brick in compression, and tensile rupture of the FRP reinforcement, were observed in the strengthened walls, depending on the types and configurations of FRP and anchorage systems. With appropriate surface preparation and anchorage systems, premature failure due to FRP debonding is prevented. Based on the principles of strain compatibility and force equilibrium, simple analytical models are presented to predict the ultimate load-carrying capacity of the strengthened walls. The test results compared well with the analytical predictions. 相似文献

Emerging techniques that use fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites for strengthening and conservation of historic masonry are becoming increasingly accepted. In the last decades steel plates or wood frames were used for external confinement in containing the lateral dilation of masonry columns subjected to axial loads. In the last years FRP epoxy bonded strips or jackets were also employed to increase strength and ductility with encouraging results in terms of mechanical behavior and cost effectiveness. The behavior of masonry columns confined with FRP and subjected to axial compression is studied in this paper. An extended experimental investigation is presented in order to show the mechanical behavior of circular masonry columns built with calcareous blocks that may be commonly found in Italy and all over Europe in historical buildings. Different stacking schemes were used to build the columns, aiming to simulate the most common situations in existing masonry structures. Carbon FRP sheets were applied as external reinforcement; different amounts and different schemes of confining reinforcement were studied. The experiments include a new reinforcement technique made by using injected FRP bars through the columns cross section. Such a solution can be considered in place of a more traditional confinement, when external reinforcement must be avoided, or in addition to external reinforcement when an improved confinement effect is required. The structural behavior of masonry columns damaged under different levels of load and strengthened by using FRP reinforcements, was also investigated. Experimental results revealed the effectiveness of the FRP confinement for masonry columns, also for columns that were strongly predamaged before strengthening. A computation of the ultimate load was conducted using the Italian National Research Council recommendations to show an application of the design approach recently proposed in Italy. An existing analytical model, previously developed by the writers, was applied for computation of expected experimental values. 相似文献

Past test data show that the bond stress distribution of bond anchorages is nonuniform along the bonded length and that the point of the peak bond strength shifts from the entry of the tendon to an inside point of the anchorage as the applied load increases. Based on these results, this paper analyzes the working mechanism of bond anchorages for fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tendons and presents a conceptual model to calculate the bond stress at the tendon-grout interface and the tensile capacity of bond anchorages for FRP tendons. Experimental and analytical results show that the geometry of FRP tendon and steel sleeve and the mechanical properties of filling grout are the relevant parameters in the development of tendon-grout interface stresses. The characteristic bond strength depends mainly on the properties of the bonding agent-cement grout, the geometry and surface conditions of the tendon, and the radial stiffness of the confining medium. A comparison of the calculated and experimental results showed good agreement. 相似文献

A fundamental understanding of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) laminate bonding behavior, including bond strength and effective bonding length, is of primary importance for the development of design guidelines and codes for concrete structures strengthened with externally bonded FRP reinforcement as a bond-critical application. However, the long-term serviceability of such FRP-strengthened structures is still a concern due to a lack of both long-term performance data and a suitable model to represent these performances. This study aims at presenting a viscoelastic model describing the time-dependent behavior of the FRP–concrete interface. The proposed model has been calibrated using strain measurements of the designed specimen for the experimental investigation of the time-dependent behavior of the FRP–concrete interface, including the development of the effective bonding length. Afterward, the proposed model satisfactorily predicts the time-dependent bonding length of the FRP sheet in comparison with the experimental results. The effects, both of creep of the adhesive layer and of creep and shrinkage of the concrete, on the changes in the effective bonding length of the PFRP sheet are also discussed. 相似文献

This paper presents the peeling behavior and spalling resistant effect of bidirectional fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets externally bonded to concrete surfaces. Experimental investigations are carried out through a series of newly designed punching-peeling tests. A wide range of variables, such as FRP sheet layers and fiber direction, plate constraint, concrete strength, adhesives, bond length of FRP sheets, diameter of indenter, and types of fibers, are considered in the experimental investigation. Theoretical study is also conducted for the specimens. Interfacial fracture energy is calculated analytically using a membrane-peeling method. It is realized that only two material parameters, i.e., the interfacial fracture energy of the FRP-concrete interface and the tensile stiffness of FRP sheets, are necessary to represent the interfacial spalling resistant behavior. Finally, the theoretical results are validated by comparing with experimental results. Comparison of theoretical to experimental results shows that the proposed theoretical model is satisfactory in reasonably and accurately predicting the peeling behavior and spalling resistant capacity of bidirectional FRP sheets bonded to concrete surface. 相似文献

This paper presents the main features of an analytical model recently developed to predict the near-surface mounted (NSM) fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strips shear strength contribution to a reinforced concrete (RC) beam throughout the beam’s loading process. It assumes that the possible failure modes that can affect the ultimate behavior of an NSM FRP strip comprise: loss of bond (debonding); concrete semiconical tensile fracture; mixed shallow-semicone-plus-debonding; and strip tensile fracture. That model was developed by fulfilling equilibrium, kinematic compatibility, and constitutive law of both the adhered materials and the bond between them. The debonding process of an NSM FRP strip to concrete was interpreted and closed-form equations were derived after proposing a new local bond stress-slip relationship. The model proposed also addressed complex phenomena such as the interaction between the force transferred to the surrounding concrete through bond stresses and concrete fracture as well as the interaction among adjacent strips. The main features of the proposed modeling strategy are shown along with the main underlying physical-mechanical concepts and assumptions. Using recent experimental data, the predictive performance of the model is assessed. The model is also applied to single out the influence of relevant parameters on the NSM technique effectiveness for the shear strengthening of RC beams. 相似文献
