“…Furthermore, increasing the concrete compressive strength resulted in higher load capacity of beam specimens with more significant mid-span deflection until failure. These observations agreed with the findings of El-Mogy et al [8] and Tahenni et al [31]. Their results revealed a similar enhancement in load capacity and more significant deflection at mid-span at failure when investigating the influence of varying the concrete strength on beams reinforced by GFRP bars.…”

Fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) is a competitive solution for the durability of reinforced structures. This paper aims to observe the moment redistribution behavior occurring due to flexural and shear loading in Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer- (GFRP) reinforced continuous concrete beams. A rectangular cross-section was adopted in this study with dimensions of 200 mm in width and 300 mm in depth with a constant shear span-to-depth ratio of 3. The reinforcement ratio for the top and bottom were equal at sagging and hogging moment regions. A finite element model was created using Analysis System (ANSYS) and validated with the existing experimental results in the literature review. Based on the literature review, the parametric study was conducted on twelve beam specimens to evaluate the influence of concrete compressive strength, transversal GFRP stirrups ratio, and longitudinal reinforcement ratio on the redistribution of the moment in beams. Several codes and guidelines adopted different analytical models. The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) S806 adopted the modified compression field theory in predicting the shear capacity of the simply supported beams. Recently, various researchers encountered several factors and modifications to account for concrete contribution, longitudinal, and transverse reinforcement. A comparison between the predicting shear capacity of the generated finite element model, the analytical model, and the existing data from the literature was performed. The generated finite element model showed a good agreement with the experimental results, while the beam specimens failed in shear after undergoing significant moment redistribution from hogging to sagging moment region. The moment distribution observed about 21.5% from FEM of beam specimen GN-1.2-0.48-d, while the experimental results achieved 24% at failure load. For high strength concrete presented in beam specimen GH-1.2-0.63-d, the result showed about 20.2% moment distribution, compared to that achieved experimentally of 23% at failure load.

“…This improvement is especially noticeable when the fiber content (2% for plain concrete) is increased. Tahenni et al [ 11 ] reported that the transverse reinforcement effectively reduces diagonal crack widths and reduces post-cracking loads. The onset of diagonal cracks is postponed, and their breadth is greatly reduced.…”

Preplaced aggregate fibrous concrete (PAFC) is a revolutionary kind of concrete composite that is gaining popularity and attracting the interest of academics from across the world. PAFC is a uniquely designed concrete prepared by stacking and packing premixed fibers and coarse aggregate in a steel mold. The gaps between the fibers and aggregates are subsequently filled by injecting a cement grout with high flowability. This study investigates the impact performance of three different sizes of PAFC beams. Steel and polypropylene fibers were used in a 3% dosage to make three different beam sizes, measuring 550 × 150 × 150 mm, 400 × 100 × 100 mm, and 250 × 50 × 50 mm. According to ACI Committee 544, all beams were subjected to a drop weight flexural impact test. Compressive strength, impact energies at initial crack and failure, ductility index, and failure mode were evaluated. Additionally, analytical modeling was used to compute the failure impact energy for the fibrous beams. The results showed that the addition of fibers increased the capacity of the tested beams to absorb greater flexural impact energy. Compared to polypropylene fibers, steel fibers had better crack propagation and opening resistance because of their higher tensile strength and crimped and hooked end configuration. For all large-size beams, the analysis of the percentage increase in impact energy at the failure stages was found to be 5.3 to 14.6 times higher than the impact energy at cracking.
