▼ Vanuit Rijkswaterstaat is de wens om een snelle, verifieerbare methode te ontwikkelen voor het controleren van de veiligheid voor meerdere T-ligger constructies volgens huidige normen en inzichten. Hierbij dient rekening gehouden te worden met eventuele wijzigingen in de toekomst, welke door de huidige ontwikkelingen op het gebied van dwarskrachtonderzoek te verwachten zijn. Het is de verwachting dat op basis van verfijnde beoordelingen en verder fundamenteel onderzoek de ‘reserves’ middels een quickscan-aanpassing inzichtelijk gemaakt kunnen worden. Hierdoor zou een deel van de onderzochte kunstwerken mogelijk alsnog voldoen aan de veiligheidsnormen. Door diverse berekeningsmethoden met elkaar te vergelijken is getracht een methode te vinden welke simpel toepasbaar is, realistische resultaten voor dwarskracht en moment geeft ten gevolge van de verkeersbelasting en tevens conservatief is. Door deze te vergelijken met diverse Scia-berekeningen is een methode gekozen die het best aan de eerdergenoemde punten voldoet. Tevens zijn de invloeden van meerdere uitgangspunten met elkaar vergeleken. Nadat inzicht is verkregen in de manier waarop de belasting over de liggers is verdeeld, is een generiek systeem gemaakt, een zogenaamde quickscan. De quickscan maakt op een snelle manier duidelijk of de gekozen snede voldoende weerstand kan bieden aan de behorende belastingcombinaties. De quickscan is een generieke, eenvoudig toepasbare, conservatieve methode om ‘het kaf van het koren te scheiden’ voor de dwarskrachttoets, zonder dat daarvoor EEM-software nodig is, welke tevens de Scia-berekeningen zo goed mogelijk benadert. Om deze zo goed mogelijk te ontwikkelen is een beoordelingsprocedure gerealiseerd welke zich vormt tot de quickscan. Om inzicht te verkrijgen in de invloed van de verkeersbelasting op de liggers en om deze conservatief te benaderen, zijn diverse berekeningsmethoden met elkaar vergeleken. Uit deze vergelijking is gebleken dat de beste benadering voor de verkeersbelasting de ‘verspreide methode’ is. Hierbij wordt de belasting gespreid of is deze niet afhankelijk van de locatie van de dwarsdragers. Met deze kennis is de quickscan Boon ontwikkeld. Deze kan worden uitgevoerd door enkele parameters in te vullen, zoals: de lengte van de ligger, het oppervlak van de ligger, het voorspanverloop, de dwarsdragers en door de ‘kritische’ sneden (belangrijke te toetsen sneden) van de ligger te bepalen. Daarna kan snel en slim inzichtelijk worden gemaakt wat de UC op deze sneden van de constructie is, en wat de consequenties van wijziging van uitgangspunten zijn. Uit het onderzoek is gebleken dat het tandemstelsel altijd op een hoek van 30 graden vanaf het gekozen punt tot hart rijstrook moet staan om de maximale dwarskracht in dat punt te vinden. Deze belastingsposities worden automatisch gevonden, waarna direct de dwarskracht en het bijbehorende moment berekend wordt met behulp van de verspreide methode. Hierdoor kan de constructieve beoordeling van de liggers snel inzichtelijk worden… Advisors/Committee Members: Hordijk, Dick (mentor), Roosen, Marco (mentor), van der Veen, Cor (mentor), Houben, Lambert (mentor), Delft University of Technology (degree granting institution).

▼ Existing reinforced concrete bridges may be deemed inadequate to carry the ever-increasing traffic loads according to the current codes and standards before they reach the end of their design life. It may therefore be required to either strengthen or replace these structures, which can be costly and causes disruptions to the infrastructure. This work investigates experimentally the possibilities to extend the useful life of existing reinforced concrete slab-on-beam structures deficient in shear by means of structural strengthening with fibre-reinforced polymers (FRP). The experimental campaign involved mechanical testing of ten full-scale T-beam specimens, representative of typical existing slab-on-beam bridges. Two sizes of test specimen were used to investigate the effect of size on the ultimate shear capacity of the beams. The investigated shear-strengthening configurations included externally bonded carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets in a U-wrap configuration with and without end-anchorage and deep embedded CFRP bars. Unstrengthened control specimens were also tested to provide baseline for comparison. The results from the experimental programme revealed that while the deep embedment strengthening solution provides an increase in shear capacity of up to 50%, the strengthening with CFRP U-wraps results in reduced capacity compared with the underlying control beam. This presents a major implication in terms of safe design predictions of shear capacity of reinforced concrete T-beams strengthened with CFRP sheets as this is the most commonly used shear-strengthening scheme in practice. The study also demonstrated that greater contribution from the externally bonded CFRP U-wraps can be achieved using end-anchorage systems, which delay the debonding of the CFRP. The applicability of current codes of standards and guidelines was studied as well as appropriateness of using advanced numerical methods for assessment of existing reinforced concrete structures. It was found that while the standards used for assessment greatly under-predict the shear capacity, the guidelines for FRP-strengthened beams either under- or over-predict the shear capacity of the tested beams. More accurate predictions are possible using advanced fracture mechanics-based methods for both the unstrengthened as well as the strengthened beams.

▼ Past experimental researches showed that as the beam depth increases, there is a significant decrease on the shear stress capacity of reinforced concrete beams without shear reinforcement. This trend is called size effect. Since most beams contain at least minimum shear reinforcement as required by building codes, it is also important to study size effect on reinforced concrete beams with shear reinforcement. In this paper experimental and analytical investigations were made to study size effect on shear behavior of reinforced concrete beams with shear reinforcement. All parameters influencing shear capacity of beam were held constant except beam depth and shear reinforcement ratio. Six reinforced concrete beam specimens tested in laboratory and twelve beam specimens analyzed by VecTor2 nonlinear finite element software. Experimental results showed that for beams without shear reinforcement the shear stress capacity decreased by 9.3%, on the other hand, for beams which have shear reinforcement with ratio of 0.14% the shear stress capacity decreased by only 3.8%, when the beam height raised from 240mm to 360mm. Analytical results also showed that when depth of the specimen increased from 240mm to 1200mm, the shear stress capacity decreased by 58.2% for beam specimens without shear reinforcement and by 48.9% for beam specimens with 0.14% ratio of shear reinforcement. From both results it can be concluded that even if using shear reinforcement minimize size effect, they cannot eliminate size effect completely. The comparison made among experimental, code-based and analytical predictions showed that Eurocode 2 and ACI 318-19 shear provisions gave generally good estimates of shear capacity for al1 analyzed specimens. However, the ACI 318-14 shear provision overestimate shear capacity of reinforced concrete beams when depth of beams exceeds 800mm that is because it did not consider size effect, so that, the decision made by ACI committee to replace it by new equation in ACI 318-19 which consider effect of member depth is correct.

▼ To enhance the durability of reinforced concrete structures, high performance concrete with low water/binder ratio is often employed. However, the opening of cracks in the concrete cover due to mechanical loading or shrinkage can accelerate the penetration of water and chloride to induce steel corrosion. The present study focuses on an alternative approach for the construction of durable concrete members with the use of permanent formwork. To make the formwork, pseudo-ductile cementitious composites (PDCC) are employed. With the addition of fibers, the PDCC exhibits multiple cracking up to strain level of several percent. With crack openings controlled to very small values, the transport properties stay similar to those of the un-cracked material. In addition to PDCC, glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) can be incorporated into the formwork to provide flexural resistance. In some applications, the member can be made by casting concrete directly on the formwork. In others, a reduced amount of steel reinforcement can be added. With steel protected by the GFRP/PDCC formwork (which acts as part of the cover), high durability can be ensured. In the thesis, we will first describe the material employed for making the permanent formwork and the method to fabricate U-shape formwork for slabs and beams. Test results on components made with both flat and U-shape permanent formwork will then be presented. Failure behavior will be discussed and failure load compared to analytical values. Special attention will be paid to the effect of debonding between cast concrete and formwork, and how debonding may be controlled. A design envelope is raised based on the experimental results for a safe design avoiding debonding failure in flexure. To replace the stirrups inside the structures in order to further extend the service life, studies on the feasibility of employing CFRP/GFRP textile embedded in the formwork as shear reinforcement is also studied. The simple joining method for formworks when a longer span is needed is also tested and the results will be discussed in the thesis. An example will be provided to illustrate the use of GFRP/PDCC formwork in practice.

▼ The use of externally bonded Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) to strengthen concrete structures has become more common. As this continues to grow, research is needed to ensure that the best design practices are being used. In this study, externally bonded Carbon FRP is used to strengthen reinforced concrete T-beams. In addition to the flexural CFRP, ±45° bi-directional Glass FRP as well as Carbon FRP splay anchors are used as anchorage systems on some of the beams. The goal of adding anchorage systems is to prevent premature failure due to debonding and allow the CFRP to reach its full capacity with a rupture failure. An experimental program is conducted in which six T-beams are designed, built, and tested in three-point bending with a clear span of 15.5 ft. The first beam was tested as a control beam failing at around 64.58 kips. The second beam was strengthened with one layer of CFRP, spanning 15 feet and starting 3 inches from each support. This beam failed 60.13 kips. The third beam was strengthened the same way as the second beam, but in addition to the CFRP sheet Carbon FRP splay anchors were added to each shear span. This beam has five splay anchors per shear span and failed at 58.88 kips by a premature rupture of CFRP sheet in between the anchors. The fourth beam was strengthened with the same layout for the CFRP sheet and had one layer of a full-length ±45° bi-directional Glass FRP U-wrap. This beam failed at a load of 80.02 kips. The fifth beam used the same layout as the fourth beam, but instead of a full-length U-wrap, this beam had one layer of one-foot wide ±45° bi-directional Glass FRP U-wraps with one foot of space between them. For this configuration the first U-wrap was centered at the mid-span of the beam. The fifth beam failed at 79.76 kips. The sixth beam was strengthened the same way as beam five but had two layers of ±45° bi-directional Glass FRP U-wraps. This beam failed at a load of 72.17 kips. These test results show that using ±45° bidirectional U-wraps is more effective for reaching higher ultimate loads. The results for beams five and six show that using one layer of bidirectional U-wraps instead of two still provides around the same amount of effective anchorage. However, the former configuration yields higher beam deflection at failure. Advisors/Committee Members: Hayder Rasheed.

▼ The strengthening of deteriorated reinforced concrete (RC) structures with externally bonding fiber-reinforced polymer (EB-FRP) composites has become a popular method for upgrading structural performance over the past two decades. For this application, there are many advantages of FRP composites, including light weight, high tension strength, good corrosion resistance and ease of applying in strengthening applications. However, there are still a number of issues that need to be further explored and investigated, especially in the area of FRP shear strengthening technique. In this thesis, the effects of shear span-to-effective depth ratio (also known as shear span/depth ratio) on the mechanical behavior of RC beams strengthened in shear with EB-FRP strips are systematically studied. In particular, focus is placed on the effects of shear span/depth ratio on the failure mode, strain distribution of FRP strips and FRP shear contribution of shear-strengthened RC beams. For better understanding of existing studies, the literature on beams strengthened in shear with EB-FRP is reviewed first. Besides summarizing the general properties of shear strengthened members, the literature review specially covers the following aspects: (a) effect of shear span/depth ratio on mechanical behavior of shear-strengthened RC beams; (b) existing shear strength models for FRP composites, and (c) existing data analysis and the use of finite element (FE) approaches for beams shear strengthened with FRP composites. Based on these reviews, limitations of existing studies are highlighted to set the stage for the thesis research. An experimental study on RC beams strengthened in shear with two different configurations (i.e., the full-wrapping and U-wrapping FRP strips) is then discussed. In this experimental study, eighteen RC beams (six beams as control beams without FRP strengthening, six beams each strengthened in shear with full-wrapping and U-wrapping CFRP strips, respectively) are tested in four-point bending method. Mechanical behavior of specimens is studied extensively and discussed in depth. The specific issues include: (a) failure modes of un-strengthened and strengthened RC beams; (b) effect of shear span/depth ratio on the shear contribution of FRP; (c) the strain development of FRP during the loading process; (d) effect of shear span/depth ratio on the strain distribution of FRP strips, and (e) comparison between the shear behavior of RC beams strengthened with full-wrapping and U-wrapping FRP configurations. The experimental investigation indicates that the shear behavior of RC beams shear strengthened with FRP in both full-wrapping and U-wrapping configurations is significantly affected by the shear span/depth ratio. When the shear span/depth ratio increases from 1.0 to 3.5, the trend of FRP shear contribution shows a near-parabolic shape with the maximum contribution obtained at medium span/depth ratio. Also, for different shear span/depth ratios, the FRP strain distributions along the critical shear crack are found to exhibit…

▼ Existing reinforced concrete (RC) beams often need to be strengthened due to material deterioration or a change in usage. The bolted side-plating (BSP) technique, i.e., attaching steel plates to the side faces of RC beams using anchor bolts, effectively enhances the bearing capacity without significant loss in deformability thus receives wide acceptance. However, as a newly developed technique, only limited information is available in literature, which mainly focused on the overall load–deflection performance of lightly reinforced BSP beams. Little studies have been conducted on the partial interaction between steel plates and RC beams which is closely related to the performance of BSP beams. The longitudinal and transverse slips, which control the degree of partial interaction, have yet to be determined precisely. Accordingly, in this thesis, extensive experimental, numerical and theoretical studies on BSP beams are presented. The experimental behaviour of BSP beams was investigated. For the first time, special effort was put in precisely measuring the profiles of longitudinal and transverse slips. In order to investigate the behaviour of BSP beams under other load cases and beam geometries, a nonlinear finite element analysis was conducted. The numerical method is more economical and capable of overcoming the difficulty in measuring the transverse slips precisely. A new approach to evaluating the transverse bolt shear force was also developed through a parametric study. New partial interaction models were developed by isolating and considering the longitudinal and the transverse partial interaction separately. A longitudinal slip model was developed based on the BSP beam section analysis, in which different strains of steel plates and RC beams were considered but the difference in deflection hence the difference in curvature was not taken into account. Meanwhile, a piecewise linear model was also proposed for the transverse slip and bolt shear transfer by introducing Winkler’s model and defining the transverse slip as the difference in deflection. Formulas for the slips, the plate forces, the strain and the curvature factors that indicate the degree of partial interaction, were also deduced. Furthermore, these formulas allow us to evaluate the effect of partial interaction in the BSP strengthening design. A numerical program was originally developed to evaluate the performance of BSP beams with partial interaction. The balance between strengthening effect and strengthening efficiency was also achieved by a parametric optimization study, which would simplify the design procedure of BSP strengthening significantly. According to the numerical and theoretical results, a new design approach for BSP beams, which needs only minor modification to existing design formula for RC beams, was proposed to aid engineers in designing this type of BSP beams and to ensure proper details for desirable performance. Compared to the conventional design methods that assume a full interaction between steel plates and RC beams, this… Advisors/Committee Members: Su, KL (advisor), Lo, SH (advisor).

▼ Bridges affect people. People use them, and engineers design them and later build and maintain them. Bridges do not just happen. They must be planned and engineered before they can be constructed. Planning and designing of bridges is part art and part compromise, the most significant feature of structural engineering. Design standards recommend span lengths to be the basic criteria for selecting bridge types, such as T-or Box-Girder bridge. Ethiopian Roads Authority (ERA) bridge design manual recommends reinforced concrete T-Girder bridges can be economical for spans from 12 to 20m and Box-Girder bridges for span lengths of between 30-90m. According to Addis Ababa City Roads Authority (AACRA) bridge design manual of 2004, the recommended span length range for a reinforced concrete T-Girder bridge is 10 - 20m and that of the Box-Girder bridge is 15-35m. In some design standards, such as AACRA bridge design manual of 2004 and AASHTO bridge design specifications of 2005, overlap in there recommendation of economical span range for T-Girder and BoxGirder bridges have been perceived. Furthermore, inconsistency in selection of the bridge type based on provided span length is also verified while conducting the site visit for this study. Hence, identifying a clear demarcation of span length for selecting the bridge type (T- / Box-Girder), on the basis of economy, happens to be found indispensable. This study basically concentrates on developing a computer program using “FORTRAN 95” programming language software for analysis, design, and cost estimate of superstructures of reinforced concrete TGirder and Box-Girder bridges. As a result, it come up with a solution for the design problems associated with the economical span range of the two types of bridges. A comparative study on the basis of cost of materials (construction cost) is conducted to select and identify the economical span range of T-Girder and Box-Girder bridges. The developed program is demonstrated using particular examples of both T-Girder and Box-Girder bridges. The study has procured a solution to benefit clients, consulting firms and contractors working in road infrastructure sector in the design and design review (checking) process. Advisors/Committee Members: Dr. Asnake Adamu (advisor).

▼ ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In a rapidly evolving world, the use of concrete for the development of infrastructure is steadily increasing and this trend is set to continue in the future. In order to decrease the environmental impact of the development of infrastructure, it is crucial to reduce the carbon footprint of cement production by reducing the amount of concrete used in structures. Through the application of fabric formwork, geometrically optimised structural members can be cast comprising up to 40% less concrete compared to prismatic members with equivalent strength formed with traditional formwork (Orr et al., 2011). Such optimised members typically have irregular and varying cross-sections along its length, and codified methods that have been applied to these members provided inaccurate results (Orr et al., 2014). This investigation serves as a preliminary study on the shear behaviour of fabric formed beams (FFB) and concentrates only on uniform beams with irregular sections. This investigation strives to augment the knowledge on the shear behaviour of irregular shaped beams inspired by fabric formed beams. Fabric formwork was not used in this investigation but it is suggested that fabric formwork is used in succeeding studies. For this research, a steel fibre reinforced self-compacting concrete (SFR-SCC) mix was developed to cast irregular shaped beams (ISB). Steel fibres are used in the concrete to investigate their potential of replacing vertical reinforcement and self-compacting concrete (SCC) was used to avoid the challenge of external vibration in the complex moulds for proper compaction of the concrete. A total of 12 webbed beams, with four various irregular web shapes and fibres contents of either 0%, 0.6%, or 1%, were cast. Asymmetrical three-point bending tests were performed to investigate the shear behaviour of ISB and to investigate the effect of fibres on the shear behaviour of ISB. Furthermore, nine shear prediction models reported in literature were modified to accommodate the irregular sections of the beams and an analytical shear prediction model for ISB containing steel fibres is proposed. These models were evaluated on the accuracy of their predictions by comparing the predicted and experimental shear strengths. The study showed that the cross-sectional area of the web significantly influences the shear capacity. Larger web cross-sectional areas result in remarkable increases in shear strength. The widely used assumption of calculating the cross-sectional area contributing to shear capacity as the width of the narrowest part of the web (𝑏𝑤) multiplied by the effective depth (𝑑), results in over-conservative strength predictions and an inefficient use of concrete. It was found that the whole cross-sectional area of the web contributes to shear strength. Furthermore, fibres significantly enhance the shear capacity of ISB and an average increase in normalised shear stresses of 49% and 74% was obtained for fibre volumes of 0.6% and 1%, respectively, compared to beams containing no fibres.

▼ Utilizing the higher capacity steel in design can provide additional advantages to the concrete construction industry including a reduction of congestion, improved concrete placement, reduction in the required reinforcement and cross sections which would lead to savings in materials, shipping, and placement costs. Using high-strength reinforcement is expected to impact the design provisions of ACI 318 code and other related codes. The Applied Technology Council (ATC-115) report "Roadmap for the Use of High-Strength Reinforcement in Reinforced Concrete Design" has identified key design issues that are affected by the use of high-strength reinforcement. Also, ACI ITG-6, "Design Guide for the Use of ASTM A1035 Grade 100 Steel Bars for Structural Concrete" and NCHRP Report 679, "Design of Concrete Structures Using High-Strength Steel Reinforcement" have made progress towards identifying how code provisions in ACI 318 and AASHTO could be changed to incorporate high-strength reinforcement. The current research aims to provide a closer investigation of the behavior of beams reinforced with high-strength steel bars (including ASTM A615 Grade 100 and ASTM A1035 Grades 100 and 120) and high-strength concrete up to 12000 psi. Focus of the research is on key design issues including: ductility, stiffness, deflection, and cracking. The research includes an extensive review of current literature, an analytical study and conforming experimental tests, and is directed to provide a number of recommendations and design guidelines for design of beams reinforced with high-strength concrete and high-strength steel. Topics investigated include: strain limits (tension-controlled and compression-controlled, and minimum strain in steel); possible change for strength reduction factor equation for transition zone (Φ); evaluation of the minimum reinforcement ratio (þ_min); recommendations regarding limiting the maximum stress for the high-strength reinforcement; and prediction of deflection and crack width at service load levels. Moreover, this research includes long-term deflection test of a beam made with high grade concrete and high-strength steel under sustained load for twelve months to evaluate the creep deflection and to insure the appropriateness of the current ACI 318 time-dependent factor, λ, which does not consider the yield strength of reinforcement and the concrete grade.

▼ In reinforced concrete members, two types of deformations exist: deformations due to curvature distribution and deformation due to discrete localised conditions such as cracks. The latter is the subject of this thesis, which presents a new approach for evaluating the discrete moment-rotation relationship of reinforced concrete members. This thesis is a collection of submitted, accepted or published papers from internationally recognised Journals, where the titles of Chapters 1 through 13 reflect the titles of the Journal papers. Each chapter takes the following format: the key theory and results from each journal paper are presented in a short synopsis, after which the journal paper is presented in full. This provides the reader, if desired, with the ability to understand the research in full by only reading the synopses of each chapter. In Chapter 1, the peripheral areas of shear friction theory, partial interaction theory and rigid body displacement are combined to quantify the moment-rotation response of any reinforced concrete member. It is discussed how partial interaction theory is used to model the behaviour of the reinforcement, shear friction theory the behaviour of the concrete, and that both these behaviours are combined through a rigid body displacement profile. This rigid body rotation approach is a structural mechanics model, and hence can be used to quantify the moment-rotation response of any reinforced concrete member (the subject of this thesis), and amongst other things the shear capacity of a concrete member and the influence of confinement on member behaviour (not covered in or the subject of this thesis). Importantly, closed form solution can be developed for all failure mechanisms, and flexural failure closed form solutions are presented in this thesis. In Chapters 2-4, the partial interaction behaviour of steel reinforcing bars and externally bonded and near surface mounted FRP plates is described in detail. Specifically, Chapters 2 and 3 quantify the bond characteristics of steel reinforcing bars and embedded near surface mounted (NSM) fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) plates. Previously published pull test data is analysed to determine the local bond stress-slip relationship of deformed steel reinforcing bars, and experimental testing of embedded NSM FRP plates performed and analysed to determine the influence of embedment on the bond behaviour of embedded NSM FRP plates. In Chapter 4, partial interaction mathematical expressions are developed to model the elasto-plastic load-slip (P-Δ) behaviour of steel reinforcing bars. These mathematical expressions are later used to model the behaviour of externally bonded (EB) and NSM steel plates. These mathematical load-slip expressions are a critical component of the moment-rotation analysis technique. In Chapter 5, the rigid body rotation model is described in detail and an iterative solution technique presented. The predicted moment-rotation behaviour of reinforced concrete beams is compared to that obtained experimentally with excellent accuracy.… Advisors/Committee Members: Oehlers, Deric John (advisor), School of Civil, Environmental and Mining Engineering (school).
