damaged reinforced concrete structures

EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS OF DAMAGED RC BEAMS

This article presents the results of an experimental study of damaged reinforced concrete beams. Corrosion of reinforcement in concrete is one of the main problems of durability faced in practice by civil engineers. Particular attention should be paid to the action of an aggressive environment as one of the most common causes of the introduction of elements into an emergency. The aim of the work is to determine the strength and deformability of reinforced concrete structures without damaging the reinforcement and in case of damage. According to the research program 4 beams were tested.

CALCULATION OF DAMAGE RC CONSTRUCTIONS ACCORDING TO DEFORMATION MODEL

This article presents results of a theoretical study of reinforced concrete beams with damaged reinforcement. The change of micro-hardness of a reinforcing rebar’s with a diameter of 20 mm of A500C steel in the radial direction is investigated and the thickness of the heat-strengthened layer is established. It is established that the thickness of the thermo-strengthened steel layer of the reinforcing bar with a diameter of 20 mm of A500C is approximately 3 mm.
