Resistance Performance

Prestressed steel reinforced concrete structure, compared with other concrete structure has its unique advantages. So it is mainly used in large span and conversion layers. With the popularization of this structure,more attention should be payed on fire resistance performance. On the basis of reasonable assume,two steps model is used as concrete high strength calculation model. Simplified intensity decreased curve is used as rebar,steel and prestressed. Two ultimate bearing capacity formulas of prestressed steel reinforced concrete beam are established. One is for the beam whose tensile area is under fire, the other is for the beam whose compression area is under fire. Prestressed steel reinforced concrete structure has both prestressed concrete structure’s advantages and steel reinforced concrete structure ’s advantage. Steel reinforced concrete is used to improve the bearing capacity of the structure. Prestressed steel is used to improve the ultimate state of structure’s performance during normal use. Thereby structure’s performance is better to play. There are many similarities between prestressed steel reinforced concrete structure and steel reinforced concrete structure about fire resistance performance. Because of prestressed steel reinforced concrete structure’s own characteristics, there are still many problems about fire resistance. This paper mainly presented bending terminal bearing capacity of prestressed steel reinforced concrete beam under fire. Established simplified formulae for calculation, it is meet the engineering accuracy requirement.

Bamboo Reinforcement

The flexural behavior of concrete beams reinforced with bamboo was studied experimentally. Bamboo was used as the main reinforcement with different bonding materials in place of steel. A nominal mix of M20 grade concrete was adopted for the beam design. The Bamboo surface was treated with common binding materials like Araldite and Bitumen. Araldite and Bitumen are good binding materials used to connect materials like steel, carbon and many different materials. Two specimens were casted with bitumen coating, two specimens were coated with araldite, two specimens were casted without any binder coating and a specimen was casted using normal steel reinforcement. Beams were casted with bamboo reinforcement and cured for 28 days. Deflection and flexural behavior of the beams were monitored. The test results imply that araldite coating in concrete beams with bamboo reinforcement increased the flexural strength to that of bamboo reinforced concrete using bitumen which is lesser strength to that of steel reinforced concrete beam.
