In addition to requirements concerning the ultimate limit state (ULS) pre-stressed systems could satisfy demands in regard to the serviceability state (SLS) like crack limitation or fatigue. In comparison with the well known material behavior of concrete under sustained loading epoxy resins show material properties more sensitive to thermal effects, for example loss of strength or creep deformations. In experimental tests the influence of permanent load and temperature is examined. The pure epoxy resin adhesive was evaluated in lab-shear tests and the structural behavior of the system in the form of epoxy bonded pre-stressed near surface mounted CFRP-strips. The experiments reveal a significant influence of the epoxy resin adhesive behavior on the long-term structural behavior in service. To evaluate the effects with regard to designs relevant problems as long-term development of transfer lengths of pre-stressed reinforcement or of the slip between reinforcement and concrete under varying load and thermal conditions results of a simulation model are presented.","PeriodicalId":151616,"journal":{"name":"SP-230: 7th International Symposium on Fiber-Reinforced (FRP) Polymer Reinforcement for Concrete Structures","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133356300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of them is frost damage in cold regions. This paper intends to investigate how the initial frost damages in concrete influence the static and fatigue bond performances of CFRP/concrete interfaces. Concrete specimens were exposed to freeze and thaw cycles before being bonded with CFRP sheets. The initial frost damage of concrete was controlled approximately at three different levels in terms of its relative dynamic modulus of elasticity, which was 100% (non frost damage), 85% and 70%, respectively. Test results showed that failure modes of CFRP/concrete bonded joints with initial frost damage in concrete were the delamination of covercrete. By contrast the joints without initial frost damage failed in a thin concrete layer as usual. Moreover, CFRP/concrete joints with and without initial frost damage showed different manners in their interface bonding strength and stiffness. If the initial frost damage existed in concrete substrate the effective bond length of CFRP/concrete joints was increased due to the decrease of the bonding stiffness and interfacial fracture energy. Fatigue testing results indicated that the linear slopes of S-N curves of CFRP/concrete bonded joints were not influenced by the initial frost damage. The initial frost damage did not shorten the fatigue life of CFRP/concrete joints if a same relative tensile stress level was kept in the FRP sheets, where the relative tensile stress level was defined as a ratio of the applied tensile force in FRP sheets for the fatigue tests to the maximum static pullout one achieved in each test series.","PeriodicalId":151616,"journal":{"name":"SP-230: 7th International Symposium on Fiber-Reinforced (FRP) Polymer Reinforcement for Concrete Structures","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124122733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As this method moves from the laboratory testing phase to implementation in the field, designers will need to be able to predict the capacity of the strengthening scheme. Bond of NSM reinforcement to concrete will likely be a key factor in determining the strengthened capacity. There are a number of parameters that affect bond between steel rebar and concrete, where only two different materials are present. In the case of bond of NSM reinforcement, a third material, adhesive, is present, further complicating the analytical description of bond of NSM reinforcement. This paper presents the results of two types of bond tests that were used to determine the effect of epoxy adhesive material properties on the bond of NSM tape to concrete. From the testing, it was found that even for epoxy adhesives with similar shear strengths, the bond strength and bond failure mechanisms differ significantly.","PeriodicalId":151616,"journal":{"name":"SP-230: 7th International Symposium on Fiber-Reinforced (FRP) Polymer Reinforcement for Concrete Structures","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128034009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this FEA model, SPRING element is used to simulate the constraint deformation due to fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping, and improved concrete stress-strain curve is considered to account for the improvement of strength and ductility of concrete under FRP confinement. A damaged plasticity-based concrete model is used to capture the behavior of concrete under cyclic loading. Method to identify shear failure due to FRP debonding and FRP rupture in FEA is also proposed. The model is validated using the results from the experimental study. It is shown that the proposed model can predict the shear failure and cyclic hysteresis behavior of GFRP-wrapped shear wall reasonably well.","PeriodicalId":151616,"journal":{"name":"SP-230: 7th International Symposium on Fiber-Reinforced (FRP) Polymer Reinforcement for Concrete Structures","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127580882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A total of 8 specimens have been tested. The specimens can be classified into EBR(Externally Bonded Reinforcement) specimens and NSM(Near Surface Mounted) reinforcements specimens. Two of NSM specimens were strengthened with 12 mechanical interlocking grooves with a width of 20 mm and spacing of 200 mm in order to prevent debonding failure of the CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) reinforcement. Experimental results revealed that NSM specimens used CFRP reinforcements more efficiently than the EBR specimens, but debonding failure between adhesive and concrete occurred. This showed that, similarly to EBR specimens, NSM specimens also required countermeasures against debonding failure. Failure mode of NSM specimens added with mechanical interlocking grooves failed by rupture of CFRP rod and strip. The measured ultimate load showed an increase of 15% compared with the common NSM specimens. The application of mechanical interlocking grooves made it possible to avoid debonding failure and to enhance strengthening performance.","PeriodicalId":151616,"journal":{"name":"SP-230: 7th International Symposium on Fiber-Reinforced (FRP) Polymer Reinforcement for Concrete Structures","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121056274","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
