Fibre Concrete Foundation Slab Experiment and FEM Analysis

Abstract:

In November 2013 an experiment was carried out using the testing equipment called stand. During the experiment was loaded steel-fiber reinforced concrete foundation slab model. The stand measures deformation and monitors interaction between stress and deformation. The purpose of this paper is comparison of values measured during the experiment and results of numerical calculations based on FEM. The stress strain analysis of elastic halfspace by means of Gauss numerical integration and Jacobean of transformation is presented here. The objective of this paper is also improving and developing the soil-structure interaction analysis based on the experimental results and FEM.
