Introduction Glass fiber composite material (GFRP) has the advantages of high strength, light weight, corrosion resistance, and is a hot topic in the field of civil engineering application.
Since soil nailings were embedded in the mortar, one hand, strain gauges were destroied by large filling pressure, on the other hand, because of the long time moist environment, strain gauges need be covered by impermeable thing that leaded more failure.Many studies showed that there were much marked excellence by fiber grating technology for physical examination of civil engineering structures and physical testing.

Finite Element Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Beam for Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Plastic Nan Huang1,a,Hui Li1,b,Pingfei Xu1,c 1Faculty of Architectural,Civil Engineering And Environment,Ningbo University,Ningbo,315211,China ahuangnan1014@163.com, blihui@nbu.edu.cn, c1039608458@qq.com Keywords: CFRP; RC beam; strengthen; Stiffness Abstract.The flexural behavior of reinforced concrete beams strengthened by CFRP is analyzed by using the way which connected tests with finite element simulation.First,through the test to get the load data of one unstrengthened and one strengthened reinforced concrete beam.Then,the finite element model is carried out based on Ansys finite element analysis software.The reinforced beam carrying capacity is improved based on the test data and finite element calculation results.Steel bars stress change curve, CFRP stress curve and the load displacement curves are in good agreement with experimental results.
Introduction CFRP sheets is widely used in construction engineering[1].The flexural behavior of rectangular section reinforced concrete beams strengthened by CFRP plates is analyzed by using the FE method.A separate finite element model which contain the effects of interface slippage between steel bars and concrete was made[2].The methods of the nonlinear numerical analysis of the RC beams strengthened with CFRP sheets are elaborated which solve the problem in nonlinear numerical calculation of the beam[3,4].
Steel bar choose link8 which is a spar used in a variety of engineering applications.This element can be used to links.The spar element is a uniaxial tension-compression element with three degrees of freedom at each node.The material constitutive model is shown in Fig.5.

Introduction Rigid-framed arch bridge with arch and frame characteristics which is a sort of light arch bridge to replace the hyperbolic arch bridge and having been widely applied on the bridge engineering in our country since the 1980’s.
Hereon MIDAS / Civil and ANSYS finite element analysis software tools are used to establish the full-bridge and the local component models, by means of the mechanical analysis of the dislocated bracing strut, combining with the real bridge inspection, to reveal the injury cause of bracing strut in the framed arch bridge.
