Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to investigate mechanics performance of rubber concrete steel composite beam, nonlinear analysis on four steel concrete composite beams with different amount of rubber has been carried out using finite element analysis software, and the influence of rubber concrete to mechanical properties of composite beam was explored. The results show that ductility, crack resistance of rubber concrete slab, shear capacity of shear connector for rubber concrete steel composite beam are improved significantly compared with ordinary steel concrete composite beams. Along with the increase of rubber content, the energy consumption of composite beams gradually increases, while the ultimate bearing capacity decreases with small amplitude. As a kind of green environmental protection material Rubber Aggregate concrete has the characteristics of good ductility, crack resistance is strong, energy consumption is obvious and good wear resistance.
