Modeling of Deformation and Fracture of Concrete Structures with FRP Reinforcement

Abstract:

Carrying capacity and fracture modes of concrete beams reinforced by different types of fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) bars are analyzed experimentally and numerically. The four-point-bending test is used as a typical loading case for this purpose. Synchronous registration of loading level, displacements and strains is performed by using InstronTM servohydraulic machine, LVDT sensors, strain gauges and digital image correlation Vic3DTM system. The experimental data and results of finite element simulations are compared and discussed.
