Experimental Study on Seismic Performance of Small Span-to-Depth Ratio Coupling Beams with PVA Fiber Reinforced Concrete
Abstract:
A series of pseudo-static tests were conducted with 4 coupling beams whose span-depth ratio 1.2. Common reinforced concrete and PVA fiber reinforced concrete were used for different specimens. In each of the specimens, there were longitudinal reinforcement, constructional reinforcement and stirrup, one of the specimens had crossed reinforcing bars. The failure mode of the coupling beams were studied, as well as hysteretic behavior. The test result indicated that using PVA fiber reinforced concrete could improve coupling beams carrying capacity, and could also reduce the amount of stirrup needed for seismic calculation; PVA members ductility was also improved.
