THE INVESTIGATION OF DEEP REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAMS UNDER STATIC AND DYNAMIC LOADING. VOL. I STRENGTH AND BEHAVIOR IN FLEXURE

Abstract

A INVE IGATION WAS MADE TO DE RMINE T E LRENGTH AND BEHAVIOR IN FLEXUR OF REINFORC D CONCRETE DEEP BEA UN ER SLOWLY AND RAPIDLY APPLIE LOADING, AS B SIS FOR THE D V LOP ENT OF A R IO L AND EFFICI N ESIGN PROC URE. The objective w re acco pli h d by analyzing the r sults of sta ic nd dynamic test . There were three m in ype of failures observ in bo h t sta ic and ynamic tes : fl xure fle ur - hear nd shear. The cracking pat erns and ode of failure w re the s m for th dyn mic an t tic companion tests. Two m in types of cracks developed, vertic l a d inclined. he dynamic behavior is comp red to the static behavior. I T AS BEE S OWN T AT THE INERTIA FORCE IN HESE TESTS R SM LL A D CAN BE EGLEC ; THEREFORE TH APPLIED LOAD-DEFLECTION CURV S COULD BE CONSIDER D AS APPROXIMATE RESIS ANCE- EFLECTIO CURVES. It was found t at h dynamic iff d the y amic ul imate deflec ion w r approximately equal to heir static values. (Author)
