In this study, nominal moment-axial load interaction diagrams, moment-curvature relationships, and ductility of rectangular hybrid beam-column concrete sections are analyzed using the modified Hognestad concrete model. The hybrid columns are primarily reinforced with steel bars with additional Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) control bars. Parameters investigated include amount, pattern, location, and material properties of concrete, steel, and GFRP. The study was implemented using a user defined comprehensive $MATLAB^{(R)}$ simulation model to find an efficient hybrid section design maximizing strength and ductility. Generating lower bond stresses than steel bars at the concrete interface, auxiliary GFRP bars minimize damage in the concrete core of beam-column sections. Their usage prevents excessive yielding of the core longitudinal bars during frequent moderate cyclic deformations, which leads to significant damage in the foundations of bridges or beam-column spliced sections where repair is difficult and expensive. Analytical results from this study shows that hybrid steel-GFRP composite concrete sections where GFRP is used as auxiliary bars show adequate ductility with a significant increase in strength. Results also compare different design parameters reaching a number of design recommendations for the proposed hybrid section.

본 연구에서는 GFRP, BFRP와 CFRP 보강근으로 보강된 콘크리트 시험체의 인장 거동 특성을 실험적으로 분석하였다. FRP 보강근의 인장강도는 설계강도와 유사하게 나타났으나, 탄성계수는 다소 낮게 측정되었다. 또한 인장강화 시험체는 OPC와 SFRC를 사용하여 150(W)×150(B)×1000(H) mm의 크기로 제작하였다. 균열간격은 탄성계수가 낮고 표면이 보다 매끄러운 GFRP 보강근이 가장 크게 나타났으며, 표면이 다소 거친 BFRP와 탄성계수가 높은 CFRP 보강근의 균열간격은 비슷하게 분석되었다. 하중-변형률관계에서도 GFRP보강근은 균열후 다소 급격한 거동을 보인것에 반하여 BFRP와 CFRP 보강근은 균열발생시 다소 안정적인 거동후 일정수준은 인장강화 효과를 유지하였다. 인장강화지수의 경우 직경이 증가할수록 인장강화지수는 다소 작게 분석되었으며, BFRP보다 GFRP의 경우가 인장강화지수는 높게 분석되었다.

최근의 철근콘크리트 구조물의 부식현상은 경제 사회적인 문제를 야기시키고 있다. 콘크리트내 철근의 부식을 방지하고 내구성을 향상시키고자 PE도막철근을 이용하여 구조적 성능을 실험적으로 검증 하였다. 에폭시도막, 무도막과 PE도막철근의 세가지 재료에 대하여 휨실험을 수행하였고 그 결과치를 비교 검증하였다. 하중-변위간의 관계를 통하여 무도막철근과 에폭시도막철근보다는 PE도막철근의 성능이 다소 우수함을 보였다. 이러한 결과를 통하여 도막재료에 시멘트를 살포하였던 것이 부착성능을 향상 시켰을 것으로 사료된다.

In order to compare the development performance of headed reinforcing bar and straight reinforcing bar in tension for steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC), pullout test of specimens with reinforcing bar which was anchored on simple beam perpendicularly was conducted. The experimental variables were steel fiber volume ratio ($V_{Rsf}$), concrete compressive strength, and existence of head. As the result of test, splitting failure of concrete in the development direction of reinforcing bar in most specimens was observed. For development detail of headed reinforcing deformation bar, specimens with 1% $V_{Rsf}$ showed approximately 63%~119% increase in pullout strength compare to specimens with 0% $V_{Rsf}$. Test result shows that SFRC is more effective in increasing pullout strength for headed reinforcing bars than increasing pullout strength of straight bars.

The lap splice lengths of deformed steel reinforcing bars and GFRP bars with two different to surface type were experimentally compared using beam specimens. The purpose was to evaluate the length required of the GFRP bar to develop strength equivalent to the conventional steel reinforcing bar. The main test variable was the lap splice length. Two different GFRP bar surfaces were tested: (1) spiral-type GFRP bars and (2) sand coated GFRP bars. For the conventional steel bars (SD400 grade), strength over 400 MPa in tension was reached using the lap splice length of $30d_b$. Splice failure was observed in the specimen with the lap splice length of $20d_b$. For the spiral-type and sand coated GFRP bars, the tensile strength developed in the GFRP bars decreased with decreasing splice lengths. Development of the cracks on beam surfaces was clearly visible for the beams reinforced with the GFRP bars. Mid-span deflections, however, were significantly smaller than the comparable beams with conventional steel bars indicating potential ductility problem.

본 연구는 경량콘크리트와 GFRP 보강근을 휨보강근으로 사용하여 제작되는 GFRP 보강근 경량콘크리트 슬래브를 교량 슬래브 등에 활용해보기 위한 사전 연구로서, 기존의 철근 콘크리트 슬래브와 GFRP 보강근 경량콘크리트 슬래브의 휨 거동 차이점 분석에 초점을 두었다. 이를 위하여 일련의 슬래브 실험체들을 제작하고 3점 휨 실험 및 수치해석을 행하였다. 실험 결과, GFRP 보강근 경량콘크리트 슬래브 실험체는 GFRP 보강근의 과다보강으로 인하여 실험체 하부에 발생된 초기균열이 하중 재하면의 콘크리트 압축부까지 연결되면서 전단파괴되는 경향을 보였다. 그리고 철근 콘크리트로 제작된 슬래브 실험체에 비하여 무게는 72%이었으며 휨 실험에서의 파괴하중은 58%인 것으로 나타났다. 한편, midas FEA를 이용하여 행한 수치해석 과정은 실험에서 나타난 전단파괴 하중까지 잘 모사하였다. 그러나 GFRP 보강근의 인장강도 대신 탄성계수가 입력값으로 요구됨에 따라 가력되는 하중과 처짐은 실험에서 나타난 전단파괴 이후에도 계속하여 증가하는 경향을 보였다.

이 연구에서는 신형소파블록을 대상으로 실험 및 수치해석을 수행하여 역학적 성능을 평가하고 적절한 보강재의 배근에 따른 구조성능 향상 효과를 검토하였다. 수치해석을 통하여 신형소파블록에 인장응력이 발생하는 위치와 크기를 예측하여 보강재를 설계하였다. 보강재로는 일반 철근 및 해양환경에 적합하도록 부식과 피로에 장점을 지닌 섬유보강재(FRP)를 사용하였다. 실험을 통하여 보강재가 없는 무근 신형소파블록의 파괴하중은 350 kN으로 소파블록의 자중에 비하여 6.2배로 나타났으며, 철근이나 FRP보로 보강한 실험체는 모두 실험의 최고하중인 900 kN 이상의 강도를 보였다. 위험단면을 통과하는 보강재의 개수는 시공의 편의를 위해서는 굵은 지름의 단일 보강재를 사용하는 것이 유리하지만 가는 지름의 보강재 여러 개를 사용하여 균열 폭을 감소시키는 것이 바람직하다는 결과를 얻었다.

In this article, the flexural and shear capacity of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete beams (UHPFRC) using two kinds of rebars, including GFRP and steel rebars, are experimentally investigated. For this purpose, six UHPFRC beams (250 × 300 × 1650 mm) with three reinforcement ratios (ρ) of 0.64, 1.05, and 1.45 were constructed using 2% steel fibers by volume. Half of the specimens were made of UHPFRC reinforced with GFRP rebars, while the other half were reinforced with conventional steel rebars. All specimens were tested to failure in four-point bending. Both the load-deformation at mid-span and the failure pattern were studied. The results showed that utilizing GFRP bars increases the flexural strength of UHPFRC beams in comparison to those made of steel bars, but at the same time, it reduces the post-cracking strain hardening. Furthermore, by increasing the percentage of longitudinal bars, both the post-cracking strain hardening and load-bearing capacity increase. Comparing the experiment results with some of the available equations and provisions cited in the valid design codes reveals that some of the equations to predict the flexural strength of UHPFRC beams reinforced with conventional steel and GFRP bars are reasonably conservative, while Khalil and Tayfur model is un-conservative. This issue makes it essential to modify the presented equations in this research for predicting the flexural strength of UHPFRC beams using GFRP bars.

Steel bar is used for as a reinforcing material in a concrete slab track. Bacuase the steel re-bar could provide passes for current transition, all the cross points of steel re-bars should be insulated by using plastic materials. This is due to the loss of signal intensity of track-circuit. In this study, GFRP bars are adopted in place of the traditional steel reinforcing bars for a concrete slab track to minimize the loss of the signal intensity. In order to evaluate the replacing effect on eletrical characteristic of slab track, measurements of surface resistivity are conducted on steel and GFRP reinforced precast slab tracks. In the results, the GFRP reinforced slab strack shows the higher resistivity than the steel reinforced slab track.

The aim of the current work is to describe the flexural behaviour of simply supported concrete beams with tension reinforcement spliced at mid-span. The parameters included in the study were the type of the concrete, the splice length and the configuration of the hooked splice. Fifteen beams were cast using an ordinary concrete mix and two fiber reinforced concrete mixes incorporating steel and polypropylene fibers. Each concrete mix was used to cast five beams with continuous, spliced and hooked spliced tension steel bars. A test beam was reinforced on the tension side with two 12 mm bars and the splice length was 20 and 40 times the bar diameter. The hooked bars were spliced along 20 times the bar diameter and provided with 45-degree and 90-degree hooks. The test results in terms of cracking and ultimate loads, cracking patterns, ductility, and failure modes are reported. The results demonstrated the consequences due to short splices and the improvement in the structural behaviour due to the use of hooks and the confinement provided by the steel and polypropylene fibers.
