摘要: This is a technical report detailing the testing of six under strength reinforced concrete beams subjected to fatigue loading. Three beams were tested as-built, and three were reinforced with external carbon fiber stirrups. Tests to failure of as-built/retrofitted beam pairs were conducted statically, and after 100,000 and 1,000,000 cycles respectively. The beams subjected to fatigue loading were first loaded quasi-statically to first cracking. The load amplitude for fatigue was set to give a peak load at 75% of that for first cracking. The as-built beams failed through rupture of the internal steel shear reinforcement. The CFRP beams failed through rupture of the concrete under the CFRP-concrete interface. The load distribution mechanism in the fatigue loaded CFRP-reinforced beams was different from the statically loaded example in that the strains in the CFRP were substantially higher through the post-fatigue loading regime. This suggests that the crack surfaces were 'worked', or polished by fatigue loading, degrading the concrete shear-resisting mechanism. The CFRP-reinforced beams also displayed different crack patterns from the unreinforced examples, in that a small number of wide shear cracks formed, inclined at 45 degrees. Cracking in the as-built specimens was more widely spread, and the cracks were narrower. The force-displacement response of CFRP-reinforced beams was found to be bilinear in all cases, as was the response of the as-built beam subjected to 1,000,000 cycles. The as-built beams subjected to no cyclic loading, and 100,000 cycles, had a linear force displacement response. An equation is presented which predicts ultimate shear strength of the CFRP-reinforced beams within an LRFD framework. / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Department of Transportation, Washington, DC.
