Ferrocement—Material Behavior in Flexure

Journal of the Structural Division, 1974
The results of the program are derived from 80 tests on specimens in the form of planks measuring 36 in. x 6 in. x 1 in. (914 mm x 152 mm x 25 mm) subjected to third point loading in flexure. Variables include the type, amount, strength, and orientation of the reinforcement and the strength and density of the mortar.

Flexural Behavior of Composite Reinforced Concrete Elements

Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2001
Although structural light-weight concrete has enjoyed frequent application in Europe and the United States since the 1950s, it has not been used at all in Turkey despite abundant and economical sources of natural light-weight aggregates. The reason for this reluctance is lack of confidence and technical ignorance. In order to allay, to some extent, the

Flexural Behavior of Prestressed UHPC Beams

Advanced Materials Research, 2011
Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC), which has very special properties that are remarkably different to the properties of normal and high performance concrete, is being increasingly used for the construction of structure. In this paper, an experimental program was formulated to investigate the characteristics of complete stress-strain curve of UHPC ...

Flexural Behavior of Six Species of Italian Bamboo

Construction Technologies and Architecture, 2022
The good mechanical performance of bamboo, coupled with its sustainability, has boosted the idea to use it as a structural material. In some areas of the world it is regularly used in constructions but there are still countries in which there is a lack of knowledge of the mechanical properties of the locally-grown bamboo, which limits the spread of ...

Flexural Behavior of Biaxial Braided Composites

Materials, 2005
Braided composites have more balanced properties than traditional tape laminates, and have potentially better fatigue and impact resistance due to the interlacing. The natural conformability of biaxial braided tubes makes it the ideal preform for three-dimensional complex components.

Flexural behavior of polyester polymer concrete

Cement and Concrete Research, 1987
Abstract The effect of temperature, strain rate, resin content, void content and methods of preparation (vibration and compaction) on the overall flexural behavior of a polyester resin based polymer concrete is studied under three-point bending. The strength and modulus of polyester polymer concrete are relatively independent of strain rate but ...

Flexural Behavior of Laterally Restrained Beams

Journal of the Structural Division, 1978
Load carrying capacity of a flexural member is significantly increased if the horizontal displacements of the ends of the member are restricted by suitable end details and support conditions. This phenomenon has been acknowledged by previous investigators.

Flexural behavior of ferrocement sandwich panels

Cement and Concrete Composites, 1991
Abstract The flexural behavior of ferrocement sandwich panels has been studied. The parameters considered in the experimental investigation were the number of wire mesh layers, the skeletal steel, the web mesh reinforcement and the number of webs. Ultimate moment capacities were computed analytically using conventional reinforced concrete theory ...

Flexural behavior of asymmetric structural foams

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2009
AbstractAsymmetric structural foams were prepared by compression molding to study the flexural properties of these sandwich structures with different layer thickness. It was found that the flexural properties of asymmetric structural foams are function of load direction. Since the bending behavior is a combination of tension and compression, the stress

Flexural Behavior of Reinforced Soil Beams

Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 1985
To investigate the flexural behavior of reinforced soil beams, tests were performed on rectangular and trapezoidal soil beams of varying span to depth ratios and varying amounts of reinforcements. Local silty clay was used in the study and simple supports for the beams were employed. The results indicate that strains are linearly distributed across the
