Numerical Investigation of Reinforcing a Masonry Column with Fiber Reinforced Strain Hardening Cementitious Composite

Article Preview

Abstract:

Fiber reinforced strain hardening cementitious composite is very deformable fine-grained concrete with the matrix based on Portland cement reinforced with short fibers. This composite material represents a new generation of high performance concrete (HPC) and it is also known as flexible concrete. Its characteristic property is that after reaching the strength when the first crack appears "hardening" of the material occurs, i.e. increases the stress and at the same time increases the strain until the ultimate strength of the material is achieved. One of the possibilities is the use of composites in the reconstruction and rehabilitation of buildings. The paper deals with the numerical assessment of the possibility of using fiber reinforced strain hardening cementitious composite during the reinforcement of an axially loaded brick column.
