Abstract In civil engineering design and construction the main steel in beams and slabs are used to take the tension and to increase the ductile behavior. In slabs the main and distribution steel is provided in horizontal form. Also the main steel in singly reinforced and doubly reinforced beams is in horizontal form only. But if we replace this horizontal form of the reinforcement in beams and slabs by Rectangular Trough shaped, reinforcement there will be increase in the moment carrying, shear carrying capacity with reduced deflection by enhancing its ductile behavior because of additional folded plate action and it takes in to account the reversal of loading thereby the sections becomes more strong in fatigue action.

Keywords Beams, Slabs, Main Reinforcement, Rectangular Trough shaped reinforcement and ductility.

  1. INTRODUCTION

    In civil engineering design and construction steel reinforcements are used to take mainly tension and increase ductility of the members such as beams, slabs, footing, etc. In case of doubly reinforced beams and columns the steel is also used to take compressive force along with increase in its ductility. In present theory the main steel used in the beam at top & bottom is in horizontal form. So instead of providing separately steel at top and bottom side of the beam if the steel is provided in the form of alternate Rectangular Trough shaped main and distribution steel the beam will also act as a folded plate up certain limit. Because of the action of folded plate in addition to bending and shear the load carrying capacity of the beam will also increase with reduced deflection.

    Sidramappa Dharane & Archita Malge [1]: The paper of effect of shape of main reinforcement in slabs. The aim of the work is to study the effect of rectangular trough shaped reinforcement in beams, in this case, instead of horizontal bar at top & bottom in doubly beam, if we replace this horizontal form of the reinforcement in beams and slabs by rectangular trough shaped reinforcement, there will be increase in the moment carrying, shear carrying capacity with reduced deflection because of folded plate action and thereby the sections becomes more economical.

    Sidramappa Dharane & Archita Malge [2]: The paper of civil engineering analysis and design software -limitations of end- users and feedback almost all structural engineers are assigning the live loads on all the floors /slabs/beams and analyzing the framed structures. But assigning the live loads on all the floors/beams is not being the critical case. Critical analysis is required for safe design. And to get the critical section it is necessary to improve the software which takes into account the number of trials i.e. various positions of live loads. The software should be improved in such a way that it should take automatically all positions of live load on floors/beams for critical analysis.

    Mahmood et. al. [3]: Studied the effect of different numbers of wire mesh layers on the flexural strength of folded and flat ferrocement panels and to compare the effect of varying the number of wire mesh layers on the ductility and the ultimate strength of these types of ferrocement structure. Seven ferrocement elements were constructed and tested each having (600x380mm) horizontal projection and 20mm thick, consisting of four flat panels and three folded panels. The experimental and numerical results show the superiority of the folded to the flat panel in terms of ultimate strength and initiation of cracking.

    .

    Rao et. al. [4]: Studied the shear strength of 6 ferrocement panels having size 600x150mm with 25mm thick. Each panel was tested under various spans to depth ratios from 1 to 6. Based on the experimental result, a formula for predicting the shear strength of the ferrocement panel was proposed. The aim of the work was to study the effect of varying the number of steel wire layers on the flexural behavior of folded ferrocement panels and to compare cracking, ultimate flexural strength and load deflection behavior with that of the flat panels.

  2. EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAMS

  1. .Methodology-

    The experimental programme consists of casting, testing of reinforced concrete beams, cubes with different shapes of reinforcement provided in the beams at various percentage of steel at top & bottom. The reinforcement provided in the beam is alternatively rectangular trough shaped. Total 38 reinforced high strength concrete beams were cast.

    B Details of beam specimen

    The specimens used were cubes, beam specimens

    .Dimensions of each test specimen are as under: Cube: 150 mmx150 mm x150 mm,

    Cube: 75 mmx75 mm x75 mm, Beam: 150 mm x 150 mm x 700 mm

    Beam specimens were used to determine .

    ,flexural of frc beams .

    Cubes of 150 mm x 150 mm size Cubes of 75 mm x 75 mm

    were used to find the compressive strength.

    Compressive strength of cubes are determined at 28days using compression testing machine (CTM) of capacity 2000 KN. FTM testing machine of capacity 250 KN was used to determine the flexural strength of beams.

    C. Test Materials-

    1. Cement Ordinary Portland cement whose 28 day compressive strength was 53Mpa was used.

    2. Fine Aggregate – Natural River sand confirming with specific gravity is 2.65 and fineness modulus 2.33 was used.

    3. Coarse Aggregate – Crushed Coarse aggregate of 20mm and 10 mm procured from local crusher grading with specific gravity is 2.63 was used.

    4. Water- Portable water free from any harmful amounts of oils, alkalis, sugars, salts and organic materials was used for proportioning and curing of concrete.

    5. Steel Diameter of steel is used 6mm.

    6. Proportion- cement: sand: aggregate: water (1:1.5:3:0.38)

    7. Ferrocement-

      1. Welded Square Mesh-

        • Wire diameter 1 millimetres

        • Size of mesh opening 12.5 X 12.5 mm

        • Maximum use of 12 layers of mesh per 6 mm of thickness.

        • Maximum 10 square in transverse directions.

        • Maximum 55 square in longitudinal directions.

        • Poisson ratio is 0.3.

          REINFORCEMENT PROFILE:-

          1. RECTANGULAR TROUGH SHAPED ONE WAY DIRECTION REINFORCEMENT:-

          In reinforced cement concrete beam the main reinforcement is provided along the longitudinal direction is straight bar and in transverse direction trough shaped reinforcement is provided at 60 mm spacing each interval. Because of trough shaped arrangement the load carrying capacity, moment resisting capacity, shear resisting capacity & ductility will increase with reduce deflection and self weight. Also it takes into account the reversal of loading. Due to inter locking of trough shaped reinforcement the bond between concrete and steel is very strong.

          The fig shows the detailed Rectangular trough shaped arrangement.

          2.RECTANGULAR TROUGH SHAPED TWO WAY DIRECTIONAL REINFORCEMENT:-

          In reinforced cement concrete beam the main reinforcement is provided along the longitudinal direction is trough shaped and in transverse direction trough saped reinforcement is provided at 60 mm spacing each interval. Because of trough shaped arrangement the load carrying capacity, moment resisting capacity, shear resisting capacity & ductility will increase with reduce deflection and self weight. Also it takes into account the reversal of loading. Due to inter locking of trough shaped reinforcement the bond between concrete and steel is very strong. Due to folded plate action the beam takes reversal loading which is beneficial earthquake.

  1. Depth of N.A ( n) :-

    Using equation to find the value of n=?

    b x n 2 /2 + ( mc -1 ) Asc ( n d ) = m x Ast ( d n )-

    ————————— [1]

    But, mc =1.5 m= 1.5 x 13.33 =19.995

    Putting above values in equation (1) we get,

    150x n 2 /2 + ( 19.995 1 ) x 56.54( n -15 ) =

    13.33 x56.54 (135 n )

    75 n2 +1.827 x10 3 n -117.84 x 10 3 = 0

    Solving we get,

    n= 29.28 mm.

  2. Moment of Resistance (MR) = b x n x c/2 (d n/3 ) + ( mc

    -1 ) Asc x C ( d d )———–[2]

    But, C = C ( b d/ n ) = 7 ( 150 -15 /29.28 ) =32.27

    Putting above values in equation (2) we get,

    (MR) = 150 x 29.28x (7/2 ) (135- 29.28/3 ) + (19.995 1) x 56.54 x 32.27 x (135 15 )

    =6.084 x 10 6 KNM.

    … Moment of Resistance (MR) =6.084 x106 KNM.

    Equating MR to BM MR=BM

    BM = 6.084 x 10 6

    But, BM formula for two point loading is = WL/6

    … WL/6 = 6.084 x 10 6

    WL = 6.084 x 10 6 x 6

    MR=BM

    9.51 x106= WL/6

    … W = 95.14KN

    Check for stress-

    WL =36.504 x 10 6/600

    … W =60.84 KN.

    Check for stress-

    (6max)T = M/I x Y

    By using flexural strength formula we can calculate the maximum stress (6max ), which is matches the results of Ansys stress & experimental stress.

    (6max)T = 19.73 N/mm2

    19.73 N/mm2=20.842N/mm2 – Hence ok.

    In this case the therotical (6max)T is matches with the experimental & ansys results, it means that the valu of 6max

    M/I = 6/Y

    Where,

    M = Bending moment I = Moment of inertia

    is equal to the actual value of stress in experimental & ansys results(6max)A

(6max ) = 12.62 N/mm2

In this case the therotical 6max is not approximately matches with the experimental & ansys results, it means that the value of 6max is less than actual value of stress in experimental & ansys results.So that the variation of stress block is not goes parabolic.

(6max )T< (6max)A—-Hence not ok.

    Check for stress-

    By using flexural strength formula we can calculate the maximum stress (6max ), which is matches the results of Ansys stress & experimental stress.

    M/I = 6/Y

    Where,

    M = Bending moment I = Moment of inertia

    Y= Depth of N.A to top of beam, ( i.e d/2)

    1. Bending momen (M ) = WL/6

    4. Maximum stress ( 6max ) = M/I x Y

= 8.89 x10 6/42.18 x 106 x75

(6max ) = 15.80 N/mm2

In this case the therotical 6max is not approximately matches with the experimental & ansys results, it means that the value of 6max is less than actual value of stress in experimental & ansys results.So that the variation of stress block is not goes parabolic.

(6max )T< (6max)A ——Hence not ok.

    Check for stress-

    By using flexural strength formula we can calculate the maximum stress (6max ), which is matches the results of Ansys stress & experimental stress.

    M/I = 6/Y

    Where,

    M = Bending moment I = Moment of inertia

    Y= Depth of N.A to top of beam, ( i.e d/2)

    1. Bending moment (M ) = WL/6

      = 76.20 x10 3x 700/6

      = 8.89 x10 6 KNm.

    2. Moment of inertia ( I ) = bd3/12

      = 150 x 150 3/12

      =42.18 x 106 mm4

    3. Depth of N.A to top of beam (Y)= d/2

      = 150/2

      = 75 mm

    4. Maximum stress ( 6max ) = M/I x Y

      = 8.89 x10 6/42.18 x 106

      x75

      (6max ) = 15.98 N/mm2

      In this case the therotical 6max is not approximately matches with the experimental & ansys results, it means that the value of 6max is less than actual value of stress in experimental & ansys results.So that the variation of stress block is not goes parabolic.

      (6max )T< (6max)A –Hence not ok.

      15.98 N/mm2 < 20.535N/mm2–Hence not ok.

      Hence we can not use this stress varitation diagram for new stress block diagram approch.

      Given data:

      Width of section (b)=150 mm, Depth of section (D)= 150 mm

      ,effective cover (d)=15 mm, effective depth (d)=135 mm

      ,Diameter of Bar (d)= 6mm ,Grade of concrete (fck)=20 N/mm,2 Grade of steel (fy)= 250 N/ mm2,

      Asc= 4 X /4 X d 2= 3 X /4 X 6 2= 113.097 mm 2 (In

      compression zone)

      But, mc =1.5 m= 1.5 x 13.33 =19.995

      Putting above values in equation (1) we get,

      150x n 2 /2 + ( 19.995 1 ) x 113.097 ( n -15 ) =

      13.33 x113.097 (135 n )

      75 n2 +3.655 x10 3 n -235.73 x 10 3 = 0

      Solving we get,

      n= 36.76 mm.

  2. Moment of Resistance (MR) = b x n x c/2 (d n/3 ) + ( mc

-1 ) Asc x C ( d d )———–[2]

But, C = C ( b d/ n ) = 7 ( 150 -15 /36.76 ) =25.70

Putting above values in equation (2) we get,

(MR) = 150 x 36.76x (7/2 ) (135- 36.76/3 ) + (19.995 1) x 113.097 x 25.70 x (135 15 )

=8.99 x 10 6 Knm.

… Moment of Resistance (MR) = 8.99 x106 Knm.

Equating MR to BM MR=BM

BM = 8.99 x 10 6

But, BM formula for two point loading is = WL/6

… WL/6 = 8.99 x 10 6

WL = 8.99 x 10 6 x 6

WL =53.96 x 10 6/600

… W =89.99 KN.

        By using flexural strength formula we can calculate the maximum stress (6max ), which is matches the results of Ansys stress & experimental stress.

        Where,

        M = Bending moment I = Moment of inertia

        M/I = 6/Y

        Y= Depth of N.A to top of beam, ( i.e d/2)

        1. Bending momen (M ) = WL/6

          = 89.99×10 3x 700/6

          = 10.59 x10 6 knm.

        2. Moment of inertia ( I ) = bd3/12

          = 150 x 150 3/12

          =42.18 x 106 mm4

        3. Depth of N.A to top of beam (Y)= d/2

          = 150/2

          = 75 mm

        4. Maximum stress ( 6max ) = M/I x Y

          = 10.59 x10 6/42.18 x 106 x75

          (6max ) = 18.94 N/mm2

          In this case the therotical 6max is not approximately matches with the experimental & ansys results, it means that the value of 6max is less than actual value of stress in experimental & ansys results.So that the variation of stress block is not goes parabolic.

          (6max )T< (6max)A —–Hence not ok.

          18.94 N/mm2 < 20.842N/mm2–Hence not ok.

          Hence we can not use this stress varitation diagram for new stress block diagram approch.

          Collapse load results & Stress distribution Results:-

          By calculating the above theoretical values of load & stress, the experimental collapse load values is nearly matches with the values of limit states of collapse load so we can draw the new stress block diagram for limit state of collapse, but the stress distribution by the ansys is matches with the limit state of stress diagram i.e. the variation of stress distribution using the ansys stress diagram is going straight at top fiber & then decreasing with parabolic to the neutral axis at zero point.

          Stress distribution Results:-

          The interpretation of results of all the stress block parameters is goes parabolic & decrease from top fibre compression zone to the neutral axis is at zero point, so that the limit state theory is applicable for such stress distribution of stress block parameters. The stress block distribution of all the beams is as shown in the Table no.6.3

          IV. CONCLUSION

          The following conclusions can be drawn from the outcome of this project study:

          1. The variation of ANSYS stress results is approximately matches with the stress results of theoretical calculation by limit state method of stress, so that the stress variation of stress block diagram is goes parabolic to the neutral axis zero.

          2. Increase in moment resisisting , shear force, ductile behaviour capacity of the beams.

          3. Increase in stiffness of the beams and reduces the deflections.

          4. Increase in durability of the beams.
