shaking table tests on precast reinforced concrete and engineered cementitious Composite reinforced concrete Composite frames
Advances in Structural Engineering, 2018Co-Authors: Jinlong Pan, Cky Leung, Wanyun YinAbstract:Engineered cementitious Composite is an Advanced Composite Material with strain-hardening and multiple cracking behavior. Substituting conventional concrete with engineered cementitious Composite can significantly improve the seismic performance of reinforced concrete structures. This article presents the seismic behavior of a precast engineered cementitious Composite/reinforced concrete Composite frame and a precast reinforced concrete frame. In the precast engineered cementitious Composite/reinforced concrete Composite frame, engineered cementitious Composite is used to replace concrete in the beam-to-column joints and the bottom columns. The shaking table test results on the two scaled frames are presented. The frame failure characteristics and dynamic properties, including the fundamental frequency, story displacement, inter-story drift, and story acceleration, are comprehensively studied. The test results indicate that the connection method adopted in the tested frames is applicable and reliable. Bot...

carbon fiber reinforced polymer for cable structures a review
Polymers, 2015Co-Authors: Yue Liu, Bernd Zwingmann, Mike SchlaichAbstract:Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) is an Advanced Composite Material with the advantages of high strength, lightweight, no corrosion and excellent fatigue resistance. Therefore, unidirectional CFRP has great potential for cables and to replace steel cables in cable structures. However, CFRP is a typical orthotropic Material and its strength and modulus perpendicular to the fiber direction are much lower than those in the fiber direction, which brings a challenge for anchoring CFRP cables. This paper presents an overview of application of CFRP cables in cable structures, including historical review, state of the art and prospects for the future. After introducing properties of carbon fibers, mechanical characteristics and structural forms of CFRP cables, existing CFRP cable structures in the world (all of them are cable bridges) are reviewed. Especially, their CFRP cable anchorages are presented in detail. New applications for CFRP cables, i.e., cable roofs and cable facades, are also presented, including the introduction of a prototype CFRP cable roof and the conceptual design of a novel structure—CFRP Continuous Band Winding System. In addition, other challenges that impede widespread application of CFRP cable structures are briefly introduced.

prediction of interface shear stresses in elastoplastic moment varying zones of Advanced Composite Material strengthened concrete members
Journal of Structural Engineering-asce, 2002Co-Authors: Wendel SebastianAbstract:Adhesive bonding of plates of Advanced Composite Materials (ACMs) to reinforced concrete structural members is increasingly used to strengthen such members in flexure. The integrity of the strengthened member under load depends on the level of hybrid structural action developed between the concrete member and the plate through the adhesive. High shear stresses at the adhesive-to-concrete interface trigger fracture of the concrete, and so induce failure by loss of this hybrid action. In zones of varying moment along the member, these high interface shear stresses can arise from the requirement, after the steel yields, for high axial stress gradients to develop in the ACM plate. In these moment-varying zones of elastoplastic activity, the steel and concrete are into their nonlinear regimes of Material behavior, and the height of the neutral axis changes nonlinearly along the member. These nonlinear effects, which generate complex behavior in elastoplastic zones, are not represented in existing approaches fo...
