The Influence Coefficient Method and its Linear Increment Calculation Research of the Creep Effect for an Un-Cracked Concrete Beams Reinforced with FRP

Article Preview

Abstract:

On the basis of the time-adjusted effective modulus method (AEMM method) and the steel influence coefficients, the combined influence coefficients of the concrete beams strengthened with FRP is proposed. It will have a higher numerical accuracy if the initial stress is substituted with the average stress of concrete and the stress is assumed to remain linear with time during the period in the step by step calculation process. The linear incremental calculation method based on the idea of the creep combined influence coefficient method of concrete beams reinforced with FRP is proposed, which provides a theoretical basis for the creep calculation and long-term stress prediction for an un-cracked concrete beams reinforced with FRP.
