The article discusses the main methods for steel threaded rods pasted into timber. Single – threaded steel rod carrying capacity glued onto glulam (timber cross section – 100 x 100 mm, threaded rod – M12 and M16) has been experimentally determined. Behaviour based on the experimental results of two different methods for pasting rods into timber has been summarized: the first threaded steel rod was glued into 4 mm bigger diameter hole while the second – rod chased into 2 mm smaller diameter hole. The conducted experiment used 800 mm length glulam beams; threaded steel rods were glued to both ends of specimens (equal theoretical carrying capacity). The experiment in the tension of both ends was carried out. The obtained results were compared with theoretical expressions submitted in EC 5 – 1 – 1:2005 and STR 2.05.07:2005. The main dependences of geometrical parameters and carrying capacity have been provided. The main collapse forms of specimens and manufacturing defects having influence on the final carrying capacity and behaviour of the joint have been observed. Using the first method, a failure in the pasted rod occurs suddenly when timber splits along the fibre; in the second case, a failure is plastic when timber is compressed under thread. Additional experiments must be carried out using the first technology increasing the class of the strength of the pasted rod as under the maximum length of paste, in all cases, failure in the pasted rod occurred when a steel bar cracked. Along with an increase in the diameter of the rod, the dispersion of the results of the affixed slender part is increasing. Maximum variation in the results of applying the first method is 10%, whereas the second method of attaching makes 50%. Compared to the first method of attaching, the results of theoretical bearing capacity indicate that tests have an adequate margin which is equal to or is more than 2,0. A comparison of the second method of attaching results to theoretical bearing capacity makes clear that the experimental results of the tests have too low safety factor and in some cases are less than 1.0. This is due to the fact that the counting of attaching technology in some cases must be based on local compressed timber strength. The experimental study of two different methods for attaching steel bars reveals that the first method can be used in design practice considering both documents STR 2.05.07:2005 and EC 5-1-1:2005. The second method of attaching must be developed to ensure smooth rod surface coating adhesive. Attaching the second method should also be created in the exact form corresponding to the disintegration of the calculation model.

Local buckling in steel tubes was observed to be capable of reducing the ultimate loads of thin-walled concrete-filled steel-tube (CFST) columns under axial compression. To strengthen the steel tubes, steel bars were proposed in this paper to be used as stiffeners fixed onto the tubes. Static-loading tests were conducted to study the compression behavior of square thin-walled CFST columns with steel bar stiffeners placed inside or outside the tube. The effect and feasibility of steel bar stiffeners were studied through the analysis of failure mode, load–displacement relationship, ultimate load, ductility, and local buckling. Different setting methods of steel bars were compared as well. The results showed that steel-bar stiffeners proposed in this paper can be effective in delaying local buckling as well as increasing the bearing capacity of the columns, but will decrease the ductility of the columns. In order to obtain a higher bearing capacity of columns, steel bars with low stiffness should be placed inside and steel bars with high stiffness should be placed outside of the steel tubes. The study is helpful in providing reference to the popularization and application of this new structural measure to avoid or delay the local buckling of thin-walled CFST columns.

The method of construction about the concrete-filled thin-walled square steel box short columns is studied in this paper. Composite steel is designed inside of the concrete-filled thin-walled square steel box short columns. The use of the transverse steel bars’ constraining effect on the concrete and bonding effect on the walls enhances the local stability and bearing capacity of the wall. According to the concrete strength C30/C35/C40 and the thickness of the steel 1.25mm/1.75mm/2.5mm,42 short column specimens are made and the size of all specimens is 200mm×200mm×690mm.The static bearing capacity test is done by the 500-ton electro-hydraulic serve testing machine. The whole curve is made .The composite steel and the thin-walled steel’s strain is tested. The results show that this method of construction has a certain effect on constrainting concrete and bonding effect on the walls, significantly improving their mechanical properties, increasing the carrying capacity and ductility, and it is easy to be accomplished.

In order to investigate the flexural bearing capacity of reinforced ceramic concrete beams, static loading experiments were carried out. 10 ceramic reinforced concrete beams and 2 non-reinforced ceramic concrete with different steel ratios, cover thicknesses and bar diameters were fabricated. The gauges of concrete was arraged on the surfaces of section in mid-span and and steel gauges was arraged on the surfaces of steel bars. The loading device was consisted of a 200kN hydraulic jack, a distributive girder and reaction frame while the dial indicators was arraged in supports and mid-span. The strain of concrete and steel bar in different loading along with the crack,yield and utimate of load were recorded .It found that the stress-strain law, crack extension regularity , failure modes of specimens was similar to the ordinary concrete beams and the current procedures formulas about flexural bearing capacity is reliability. It also found that both ceramic aggregate and cement mortar were crushed for the perfectly bonding of the interface and the strength of aggregate was to be fully utilized.

Background and Objective: Prestressed high strength concrete pipe pile (PHC) shows brittle fracture when subjected to more than its own bearing capacity. Therefore, the non-prestressed steel bar is added to the PHC pipe pile, that is, the mixed reinforced pipe pile (PRC). The mechanical behavior of PRC group piles and PHC group piles under horizontal force is studied, and the bending moment diagram and displacement diagram of the pile body are compared so as to find the weak parts. Material and Method: In this paper, Φ600 pipe piles are chosen, and the PRC pipe piles are made of non prestressed steel bars of the same number as the prestressing steel bars, and the two steel bars are spaced apart. Referring to a specific project of Binhai New Area, the geological parameters are used, and the force analysis of group piles under horizontal force is carried out by using the ANSYS software. Results: ANSYS simulation results show that, under the horizontal loading, when the number of piles in group piles is different, the locations of maximum bending moments are different. Increasing the number of the PRC pipe pile with non prestressed reinforcement can effectively reduce the maximum bending moment of the pile body. Conclusion: Under horizontal load, with the increase of pile number and the pile cap aggrandizement, the position of maximum moment of pile body is shifted from 5-8 times diameter of pile to the top of pile. When the pile number reaches a certain amount, the maximum bending moment will appear at the joint between the pile cap and the pile body. At the same time, increasing the non prestressed steel bar does not influence the bending moment, and the reinforcement of the pile cap and the pile top should be strengthened.

The replacement of conventional steel bars with GFRP or CFRP is one of the main topics discussed in this paper, including the main parameters and properties of the materials. The design procedures should account for the properties and will focus on the tensile strength and modulus of elasticity. It will also consider corrosion under environmentally aggressive conditions. This paper presents an experiment on the flexural behavior of concrete beams reinforced with GFRP and CFRP bars and compares these results with theoretical analysis based on different standards such as ACI, Eurocode, and CSA. Twelve reinforced concrete beams will be tested using four-point loading. The geometrical parameters of the tested beams are 130×220×2200 mm, reinforced with different diameters for GFRP and CFRP.  The reinforcement ratio and strength of concrete influence the behavior of GFRP, CFRP, and RC beams and contribute to reduce the deflection and crack width. Based on this research, the closest approximation of the experimental results is observed with ACI standards. At this stage, these bars can be used in structures without strict requirements for exceeding the Serviceability Limit State. The non-integration of tension stiffening and regression performance of cracking moment in prediction expressions imposed the differences from experimental results.

The questions of measures calculation of events containing uncertain quantities of random, fuzzy and rough nature are considered. The algorithms of determination of measures of events, based on methods of statistical simulation, are proposed. The "chances" of realization an uncertain event - the simultaneous fulfillment of the conditions of the bearing capacity of a cylindrical orthotropic shell compressed by an axial force, which can be presented in a random, fuzzy or rough manner, are investigated. The stochastic uncertainty is given by the distribution density of the random variable. Fuzzy data are defined by the membership function, and rough data are defined by a deterministic upper and lower approximation. Each type of uncertainty is characterized by its own measures: the probability - for the description of the modality - "probably", the possibility - for the description of the modality is "fuzzy", trust - to describe the modality "rough". The paper proposes procedures for calculating the listed measures. Also numerical illustrations of the calculation of modalities as "probably", "fuzzy", "rough" for the analysis of the limit force of carrying capacity in the problem of optimal design of the compressed orthotropic cylindrical shell made of fiberglass in conditions of uncertainty of the problem of geometrical parameters, such as thickness and radius, and description of the corresponding degree of implementation of an uncertain event are shown. Uncertain event is to fulfill the limitations of general and local stability and durability. The results of the calculations are compared with the solution of the problem with deterministic data. The results show the "reaction" of the values of the critical force to the possible presence of uncertain factors in the problem and the degree of uncertainty. Thus, the bearing capacity of the shell decreases significantly more in the presence of factors of random and rough nature in comparison to the fuzzy data.

Nonlinear numerical analysis for the force performance of frame middle joint is processed in this paper with the finite element software of ABAQUS. Compared with experimental results, numerical analysis results are found to be reasonable. Then the influence of factors such as shaped steel ratio and axial-load ratio are contrastively analyzed. The results show that shaped steel ratio has a greater influence on the bearing capacity and hysteretic performance of the structure, but the axial-load ratio has less influence.

PurposeReinforcement of reinforced concrete (RC) beams in-service have always been an important research field, anchoring steel plate in the bottom of the beams is a kind of common reinforcement methods. In actual engineering, the contribution of pavement layer to the bearing capacity of RC beams is often ignored, which underestimates the bearing capacity and stiffness of RC beams to a certain extent. The purpose of this paper is to study the effect of pavement layer on the RC beams before and after reinforcement.Design/methodology/approachFirst, static load experiments are carried out on three in-service RC hollow slab beams, meanwhile, nonlinear finite element models are built to study the bearing capacity of them. The nonlinear material and shear slip effect of studs are considered in the models. Second, the finite element models are verified, and the numerical simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental results. Last, the finite element models are adopted to carry out the research on the influence of different steel plate thicknesses on the flexural bearing capacity and ductility.FindingsThe experimental results showed that pavement layers increase the flexural capacity of hollow slab beams by 16.7%, and contribute to increasing stiffness. Ductility ratio of SPRCB3 and PRCB2 was 30% and 24% lower than that of RCB1, respectively. The results showed that when the steel plate thickness was 1 mm–6 mm, the bearing capacity of the hollow slab beam increased gradually from 2158.0 kN.m to 2656.6 kN.m. As the steel plate thickness continuously increased to 8 mm, the ultimate bearing capacity increased to 2681.0 kN.m. The increased thickness did not cause difference to the bearing capacity, because of concrete crushing at the upper edge.Originality/valueIn this paper, based on the experimental study, the bearing capacity of hollow beam strengthened by steel plate with different thickness is extrapolated by finite element simulation, and its influence on ductility is discussed. This method not only guarantees the accuracy of the bearing capacity evaluation, but also does not require a large number of samples, and has certain economy. The research results provide a basis for the reinforcement design of similar bridges.
