Therefore, the reinforcement strain energy should show an inverse relationship with the concrete crushing energy due to the weak tensile deformation capacity of concrete. Further, the concrete crushing energies show a positive correlation with fractal dimension according to previous studies [50], [51]. Therefore, the fractal …
In ABAQUS reinforcement in concrete structures is typically provided by means of rebars, which are one-dimensional rods that can be defined singly or embedded in oriented surfaces. ...

After 10 discharges, cracks in the single-layer reinforced concrete connected holes in the plate, and the concrete plate was divided into a number of plates to achieve crushing. Double-reinforcement had a stronger constraint on the concrete slab, and the top reinforcement should be removed or cut off before HVPDs are performed to form a …

Shear failure is the most dangerous and complex failure mode on reinforced concrete (RC) beams [].It is unfavorable for engineers because of its sudden occurrence with a brittle failure approach [2, 3].Furthermore, such failure would lead to the crushing [] of concrete before the tensile reinforcement yields, making it critical and unsafe for the …
Previous studies showed that concrete column confined by both glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) tube and inner steel spiral reinforcement (termed as GFRP-SR-confined concrete) is a hybrid structure exhibiting much better static structural performance (e.g. load carrying capacity and ductility) compared with concrete column …
Nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) structures is characterized by numerous modeling options and input parameters. To accurately model the nonlinear RC behavior involving concrete cracking in tension and crushing in compression, practitioners make different choices regarding the critical modeling issues, …

Reinforcement is bars, wires, strands, or other slender members that are embedded in concrete in such a manner that they and concrete act together to resist forces. Strand is a prestressing tendon composed of a number of wires twisted around the center wire or core. References: SP-1 (02); ACI 318-19; E2-00; SP-344. Topics in Concrete: 318 ...
(f) For beams with relatively deep webs, the skin reinforcement (Fig. 4.3) should be placed near the vertical faces of the web to control the crack width.If the beam depth is (ge {text{450 mm}} ), the longitudinal skin reinforcement [8] should be provided along the height of the beam every 200 mm (Fig. 4.3), in order to reduce the crack width of the …

Concrete crushing in compression: The constitutive model for concrete in uniaxial com- pression is usually provided as a stress–strain relationship in design codes, e.g., Model Codes [14,15] and ...
When γ > γ 3, beams usually fail in the crushing of concrete in the compression zone between the two load points after yielding to the longitudinal reinforcement of the tensile zone in the mid-span, which is typically called "flexural failure". The first three failure modes generally occur to the shear span without warning, showing …

The effective reinforcement ratio was proposed to analytically predict the possible flexural failure modes of hybrid GFRP-steel RC beams. Furthermore, the calculation model of flexural strength of hybrid RC beams with the preferred flexural failure mode (steel yielding followed by concrete crushing) was proposed.
Flexural tension failure initiates by yielding of steel reinforcement followed by crushing of concrete at compression side of the beam. It occurs when …

Concrete crushing after yielding of steel reinforcement represents an under-reinforced member, which is typical of current reinforced concrete design standards. This failure mode ensures that a high level of member ductility is maintained prior to failure, thus providing ample warning before collapse. In the case of FRP-strengthened …
Massive amounts of concrete and asphalt mean much value glued together with cement, steel reinforcement, or bitumen. The cost of crushing the pile of concrete is also considerable.
