TAILIEUCHUNG - Performance of lightweight granulated glass concrete beams reinforced with basalt FRP bars

This paper presents an investigation into the flexural behaviour of basalt FRP reinforced concrete beams through experimental and analytical methods. To achieve the research objectives, four concrete beams reinforced with steel and four identical concrete beams reinforced with BFRP bars were tested under four-point bending. | Performance of lightweight granulated glass concrete beams reinforced with basalt FRP bars Engineering Solid Mechanics 7 2019 247-262 Contents lists available at GrowingScience Engineering Solid Mechanics homepage esm Performance of lightweight granulated glass concrete beams reinforced with basalt FRP bars Alfred Kofi Ganda Shuaib Sharifb Messaoud Saidania Richard Lumorc Pam Billy Foma David Yeboahd and Ucheowaji Ogbologugoa a School of Energy Construction and Environment Coventry University Coventry UK b Consultant Civil Engineer UK c School of Applied Sciences Department of Civil Engineering Central University College Accra Ghana d Faculty of Engineering and Technology Liverpool John Moores University Liverpool UK A R T I C L EI N F O ABSTRACT Article history This paper presents an investigation into the flexural behaviour of basalt FRP reinforced concrete Received 26 December 2018 beams through experimental and analytical methods. To achieve the research objectives four Accepted 18 April 2019 concrete beams reinforced with steel and four identical concrete beams reinforced with BFRP bars Available online were tested under four-point bending. The main parameters examined under the tests are the type 18 April 2019 Keywords of concrete lightweight foam glass concrete and normal concrete and the type of longitudinal Basalt reinforcement bars BFRP and steel . Test results are presented in terms of failure modes FRP deformation crack pattern and the ultimate moment of resistance are presented. The experimental Rebars results are analysed and compared to predictive models proposed by ACI 2006 and BS Lightweight EN 1992 Eurocode 2 for deformations and ultimate flexural capacities of the steel and BFRP Concrete reinforced concrete beams. The experimental results indicated that the flexural capacity decreased Granulated for the beams reinforced with BFRP bars compared to that of a corresponding beam reinforced Foam with steel bars.
