1 Rav Mullapud and Ayoub Int J Conr Strut Mater 8 :6 Internatonal Journal of Conrete Strutures and Materals ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Aess Fber Beam Analyss of Renfored Conrete Members wth Cyl Consttutve and Materal Laws T. Rav Mullapud and Ashraf Ayoub * Abstrat Ths paper presents a non-lnear Tmoshenko beam element wth axal, bendng, and shear fore nteraton for nonlnear analyss of renfored onrete strutures. The strutural materal tangent stffness matrx, whh relates the nrements of load to orrespondng nrements of dsplaement, s properly formulated. Approprate smplfed yl unaxal onsttutve laws are developed for raked onrete n ompresson and tenson. The model also nludes the softenng effet of the onrete due to lateral tensle stran. To establsh the valdty of the proposed model, orrelaton studes wth expermentally-tested onrete spemens have been onduted. Keywords: ombned loadng, Tmoshenko beam, R/C beams, un-axal onsttutve relatons, tangent stffness Bakground The response of renfored onrete RC strutures s affeted by the ombned effet of bendng, shear, and axal loads. Aurate onsttutve model of RC elements for ombned loadngs s essental for relably predtng strutural behavor. In the past deades onsttutve models have markedly mproved, thereby mprovng the auray and effeny of modelng omplex RC strutures. Effent onsttutve models for onrete and renforng bars are typally establshed from large-sale panel testng, and assumng a smeared raked behavor. Belarb and Hsu 995 developed the Rotatng-Angle Softened-Truss Model RA-STM. They assumed that shear stresses exst along the rak dreton, and proposed a tenson stffenng funton to aount for ths effet. Ths model was further mproved by Pang and Hsu 996, who developed the Fxed-Angle Softened-Truss Model FA-STM. In ths model, raks were assumed to be orented at a fxed angle. Zhu et al. derved a proper shear modulus ompatble wth the FA-STM model and proposed a robust soluton algorthm for *Correspondene: Ashraf.Ayoub.@ty.a.uk Dept. of Cvl Engneerng, Cty Unversty of London, Northampton Square, London ECV OHB, UK Full lst of author nformaton s avalable at the end of the artle Journal nformaton: ISSN / eissn analyss of shear-rtal onrete elements. Later, the authors evaluated the Hsu/Zhu Posson s Rato Posson s rato for raked onrete Zhu and Hsu, whh resulted n the Softened Membrane Model SMM. The SMM proved to be able to smulate both the pre-peak and post-peak behavor of onrete elements. Aurate modelng of the omplex behavor of RC strutures s typally performed wth two-dmensonal membrane elements. However, these elements are omputatonally very expensve, whh renders the analyss tme-onsumng. Unlke membrane elements, fber beam elements proved to provde a good balane between auray and numeral effeny Belarb and Hsu 995. In fber-based beam elements, the spread of nelastty along the depth s evaluated through dsretzaton of the seton nto a large number of fbers wth approprate materal models. Typal fber elements aount for the axal-flexural nteraton effet owng to the assumpton that plane setons reman plane after deformaton. Lately, Mullapud and Ayoub Mullapud and Ayoub developed a fber-based beam element that aounts for shear-axal-flexure nteraton effets and further mproved the element to aount for full three-dmensonal effets, nludng the ombned bendng, axal, shear and torsonal nteraton Mullapud and Ayoub 3.

2 Rav Mullapud and Ayoub Int J Conr Strut Mater 8 :6 Page of 6 Researh Objetve The man objetve of ths paper s to derve an approprate materal tangent stffness matrx for fber beamolumn element formulaton of shear-rtal onrete members Fg.. The developed stffness matrx does not aount for materal nonlnearty. Smplfed yl unaxal onsttutve laws are developed for onrete n both ompresson and tenson. The formulaton of the proposed element s based on the flexblty method of analyss. Flexblty-based formulatons Mullapud and Ayoub 9; Labb et al. 3 are used to overome most of the lokng dffultes assoated wth the standard dsplaement model. Shear effets s smulated through a Tmoshenko-based approah Mullapud and Ayoub 9. The onrete onsttutve law s based on the aforementoned SMM model wth Hsu/Zhu ratos. The work also attempts to mprove the development of the onrete un-axal onsttutve relatons. The model s added to the lbrary of the fnte element program FEAPpv Taylor 5. 3 Conrete Consttutve Model The ACI 38 Ameran Conrete Insttute 8 buldng ode suggests that the shear strength of an RC member s the ombnaton of onrete strength V C and transverse renforement strength V S. The value of V C annot be alulated n the RA-STM model, beause the rak angle s assumed to be rotatng. However, the FA- STM and SMM theores are apable of aountng for the effet of V C ; beause the raks are assumed to be orented at a fxed angle and the proper onrete shear stress term τ s aounted for. To formulate the SMM model wth the nluson of FRP, three oordnate systems are defned as shown n Fg. : the frst x, y represents the loal oordnate of the fber; the seond, defnes the prnpal stresses; whle the thrd system r, d defnes the onrete prnpal oordnate system n whh the onrete shear stress τ =. In the fgure, α s the angle between the x- and -axes, and α r s the angle between the x- and r-axes Fg.. d σ y τ xy τ σ τ y σ σ σ τ xy r α r α r α σ x Fg.

3 Rav Mullapud and Ayoub Int J Conr Strut Mater 8 :6 Page 3 of 6 To followng matrx Rθ s used to rotate the stress and stran vetors from one oordnate system to another: os θ sn θ os θ sn θ [Rθ] = sn θ os θ os θ sn θ os θ sn θ os θ sn θ os θ sn θ where θ s the angle between the two oordnate systems. The ompatblty equatons n the x y system are: where f sx and f sy are the renforng bar stresses n the x and y dretons respetvely, and ρ sx, ρ sy are the smeared steel ratos n the x and y dretons respetvely. The lateral stran ɛ y n fber s alulated from the seond of Equatons n 4, knowng that the value of σ y equals zero. In order to evaluate the value of the lateral stran ɛ y, an teratve proedure s needed owng to the nonlnear behavor of the materals used Mullapud and Ayoub. { x y.5γ xy } T = [R α ] {.5γ } T Smlar to the stran transformatons, stress transformaton equatons n the x y system are: { σx σ y τ xy } T = [R α ] { σ σ τ } T The transformaton equatons are graphally represented by Mohr s stress and stran rles n Fg. 3. For a fber Tmoshenko-type beam element formulaton, the state determnaton at the fber level uses the stran state {ɛ x, ɛ y, γ xy } to evaluate the fber stresses {σ x, σ y, τ xy }. In ths ase, the values of ɛ x, γ xy are gven, but the lateral stran ɛ y value s unknown and has to be alulated from the equlbrum equatons as desrbed next. 4 Proess to Evaluate Lateral Strans To evaluate the lateral stran, the equlbrum equatons between onrete and steel are gven below: σ x σ y τ xy = 3 os α sn α os α sn α sn α os α os α sn α os α sn α os α sn α os α sn α 5 Un Axal Consttutve Relatonshps of the Materals The baxal strans n the x y dreton { } T x y γ xy need to be onverted to equvalent unaxal strans n the prnpal dreton { } T γ n order to evaluate the onrete stresses as explaned n Mullapud and Ayoub. To evaluate the rotatng rak angle, α r orrespondng to a onrete shear stress τ = Fg. 3 the followng expresson s used: tan α r = x y The alulaton of the rotatng angle, α r s dependent on the stran state.

Rotatng angle α r = 45 when the value of γ xy >, and α r = 35 when the value of the γ xy <. If the value of the shear stran γ xy = then the rotatng angle depends upon the value of the ɛ x and ɛ y as follows. The rotatng angle α r = when the value of ɛ x > ɛ y and, α r = 9 when the value of ɛ x < ɛ y. If both the shear stran and the dfferene of the axal and transverse strans are non-zero numbers, then the followng laws wll be appled. If the value of ɛ x > ɛ y and the shear stran γ xy >, then the value of the rotatng angle α r beomes the value of the αr. If the value of ɛ x > ɛ y and the shear stran γ xy <, then the value of the rotatng angle α r = 8 αr. If the value of ɛ x < ɛ y and the shear stran γ xy >, then the value of the rotatng angle α r = 9 αr. If the value of ɛ x < ɛ y and the shear stran γ xy <, then the value of the rotatng angle α r = 9 + αr. After evaluatng theɛ y term that satsfes the equlbrum ondton Eq. 4, the prnpal angle α s evaluated as: 6 {.5γ } T = [Rα ] { x y.5γ xy } T The baxal strans n the x y dreton { x y γ xy } T need to be onverted to equvalent unaxal strans n the prnpal dreton { γ } T n order to evaluate the onrete stresses as explaned n Mullapud and Ayoub. Ths s done usng the Hsu/Zhu ratos μ, μ Zhu and Hsu. μ s the rato of the tensle stran nrement n dreton to the ompressve stran nrement n dreton, and μ s the rato of the ompressve stran nrement n dreton to the tensle stran nrement n dreton. Based on test data the followng expressons are proposed by Zhu and Hsu. µ = sf sf y, µ =.9 sf > y where ɛ sf s the stran n the steel bar that yelds frst and ɛ y s the yeld stran. After rakng, the value of the Hsu/Zhu rato μ s larger than maxmum value of.5 for Posson ratos of ontnuous materals. Before rakng, the Hsu/Zhu rato μ =. and, after rakng, μ =, meanng the tensle stran does not affet the ompressve stran. The Hsu/Zhu rato s used to elate the un-axal strans to the baxal prnpal strans: 8 9 { sx sy.5γ xy } T = [µ][r α ] {.5γ } T τ xy tan α = σ x σ y Smlar to Eq., the baxal prnpal strans are alulated as follow: 7 where [µ] = µ µ µ µ µ µ µ µ µ µ sx = sy = µ µ + µ µ + µ os α + µ µ µ sn α + µ µ The longtudnal and transverse renforement unaxal prnpal strans are then: sn α γ snα osα µ µ µ µ µ + µ µ µ + 3 os α + γ snα osα µ µ 4

The equvalent unaxal strans and are also used to evaluate the onrete stresses σ and σ. 5. Conrete Model The unaxal onrete materal model adopted follows the well-establshed modfed Kent and Park model Park et al. 98. However, the model was modfed to aount for the followng effets: Frst, the softenng effet for both, the stresses and strans, s aounted for. Seond, the yl stffness degradaton for both, the unloadng and reloadng branhes, s ntrodued. Thrd, the tenson-stffenng effet s aounted for Belarb and Hsu 994. Aordng to Kent and Park Park et al. 98, the monoton stress stran envelope of onrete follows a parabol urve Fg. 4: [ f = f Softened f B ς o o o ς ς ].8ςf C 5 It was observed from expermental tests of onrete panels that the ompressve stress stran urve s redued due to the effet of perpendular tensle stresses. Ths effet s aounted for through a softenng oeffent ς. When the softened stress stran urve s developed, t s assumed that the lnes that onnet the orgn to the peak stress of the softened and non-softened urve have the same slope as shown n Fg. 4. Smlarly, the pre-peak and post-peak urves of the softened Fg. 4 Monoton softened onrete materal model. Stress, f E C F O H.5E r t, E r E -,-f r r R r member are assumed to follow a parabol shape. The desendng branh of the softened envelope s gently sloped untl the stress reahes a value that equals % of the maxmum stress ςf at a stran of ɛ. The resdual onrete ompressve strength s assumed to be % of the softened onrete ompressve strength ςf. The sse of ths value n the model s very ommon and has aurately predted the expermental results Mullapud and Ayoub 3. For the softened behavor, the followng relatonshps are adopted: [ Regon OA, ς, f = ςf D, f m m ] ς ς 6 Regon OA, ς, Tangent modulus E t = f ς 7 [ ] Regon AB, ς <, f = ςf ς.8 ς 8 Regon AB, ς <, Tangent modulus E t =.6ςf ς ς G Regon BC, >, f =.ςf B,. ς f f r Stran, Fg. 5 Cyl stress stran urve of softened onrete.

6 Rav Mullapud and Ayoub Int J Conr Strut Mater 8 :6 Page 6 of 6 The yl model Fg. 5 onsders the onrete damage and aounts for the rak openng and losng. The envelope for the yl stress stran urves of onrete adheres to the monoton stress stran urve. The unloadng and reloadng path of the ompressve sde s smplfed, as all the loadng paths start from a ommon pont R, whh determnes the degradaton stffness.e. the rato between the slope of any gven loadng path and that of the monoton envelope at the orgn, whh lmt s provded by the slope of the path RB. The unloadng modulus E at pont B of the monoton envelope urve s.ςf f r r. E and must be determned expermentally. The stress and stran at the nterseton of pont R and the orgn are gven by the followng expressons: r =.ςf E E E f r = E r 3 n whh E s the ntal tangent modulus at orgn n ompresson; n the urrent model, t s assumed to equal f. The unloadng stress fm and stran m values at pont D on the ompressve monoton envelope are used to alulate the reloadng modulus and stran t at zero stress pont H from the followng expressons: E r = f m f r m r t = m f m E r 4 5 From any unloadng pont D, the stress wll reah the zero stress axs at pont H after ompletng two smaller yles that are defned by these expressons: Maxmum stress lne HD fmax = fm + E r m, t m Mnmum stress lne HE fmn =.5Er t, t m. 6 7 The loadng and unloadng yles are arred out wth the assumpton that the model follows a lnear behavor wth modulus E. The tral stress f T and tangent modulus E t are based on a lnear elast behavor wth ntal tangent modulus E ; later ths assumpton s orreted to fall under the lne HD and lne HE. f T = f P + E 8 f s f p f y f y f Steel stress Here, f P s the prevous stress and Δɛ s the stran nrement. The atual stress f and tangent modulus E t are alulated based on the tral stress state f mn f T f T E s Bare steel bar E p Steel stran f max then f = f T E p y Fg. 6 Smeared mld steel stress stran urve. Smeared steel bar and E t = E < f mn then f = f mn and E t =.5E r 9 3 f T > fmax then f = fmax and E t = Er. 3 When the unloadng begns from ponts D to E, the reloadng wll follow the same path bak to D. When the unloadng reahes pont F, then reloadng wll result n the loop DEFGD. If unloadng reahes pont H, then reloadng wll follow loop DEHD. The reloadng path wll always rejon the ompresson envelope at the pont of ntal unloadng, D. If unloadng ontnues below pont H, then reloadng begns n tenson. After the start of the reloadng n ompresson, the model wll re-enter the ompresson branh at pont H. Subsequent loadng n the tenson branh wll not affet the behavor one the model returns bak to the ompresson branh. 5. Steel Model The smeared stress stran relatonshp of steel embedded n onrete under un-axal loadng has been developed by Belarb and Hsu 994, 995. The steel stran at raked setons typally nreases rapdly ompared to adjaent regons beause part of the stress s ressted by the onrete. Steel stresses are averaged along the renforng bar rossng several raks, and the resultng smeared steel stress at frst yeld s redued ompared to the loal yeld stress of a bare bar. The smeared E s p s

7 Rav Mullapud and Ayoub Int J Conr Strut Mater 8 :6 Page 7 of 6 stress stran relatonshp of embedded steel bars sold urves, as well as that of bare bar dotted urve are plotted n Fg. 6. The dfferene between the bare bar yeld stress f y and smeared steel bar yeld stress f y depends on the parameter B defned by Belarb and Hsu 994, 995. The parameter Bs derved to be a funton of three varables suh as perentage of steel ρ, rakng strength of onrete f r, and yeld stress of the bare bar f y. The parameter B depends on the rak wdth, rak spang and nterfae bond slp behavor of steel bar and onrete. It an be seen that when the steel rato ρ s dereased or when f r s nreased, then the smeared yeld stress f y dereases and the smeared stress stran plot moves downward. As shown n Fg. 6, the shape of both, the bare bar and the smeared steel bar, urves of mld steel follow two straght lnes. These two straght lnes have slopes of E s before yeldng and E p after yeldng for smeared steel, and slope of E p after yeldng for bare steel bar as llustrated n Fg. 6. The slope of the stran-hardenng branh of the bare steel bar s assumed to equal.5 E s. The stress value at whh the two straght lnes of smeared steel nterset s the smeared yeld stress f y and the orrespondng stran s the smeared yeld stran y. The equatons of the pre yeld and post yeld lnes are gven as: f s = E s s when f s f y f s = f o + E p s when f s > f y. The vertal nterept of the post yeld lne f s evaluated o as: f o = E s E p f y E s Belarb and Hsu 994, 995 defned the parameter Bas: B = ρ fr f y.5, where f r =.3 f MPa and ρ.5%. The smeared yeld stress of steel bar s alulated as: f y =.93 Bf y The smeared steel bar yeld stran s alulated as: y = f y E s. The slope of the stran hardenng branh of the smeared steel bar s alulated as E p The smeared steel stress before yeldng an be alulated as: 4 When the steel stress f s reahes a value of f p and begns to unload, then the unloadng branh follows a straght lne wth a slope of E s. The unloadng stress s expressed as: f s = f p E s p s where s < p 4 The yl response of the smeared steel bar s formulated aordng to the Flppou et al. 983 model whh aounts for sotrop stran hardenng and Baushnger effet. 6 Tangent Materal Consttutve Relatons The onrete onsttutve law s smplfed as an orthotrop materal wth two perpendular planes of elast symmetry. Dretons one and two are the loal prnpal materal axes that are normal to the planes of symmetry. Wth the equvalent un-axal strans, the stffness values Ē and Ē are determned from a materal unaxal stress stran relatonshp. The materal behavor s expressed as: { } σ = [Dlo ] { In ths equaton, { } 4 σ} s the onrete stress vetor, {ɛ } s the prnpal stran vetor, and [D lo ] s the prnpal loal un-axal onrete materal tangent stffness matrx. The tangent stffness matrx of an RC element s defned as: =. + B. f s = E s when s y f s =.9 Bf y BE s s when s > y. d [ ] +s Dgl = d σ x σ y τ xy x y γ xy, 43

Substtutng Eq. 44 nto Eq. 43 gves: [R α ] [ ] +s Dgl = α s σ σ τ Equaton 45 s splt nto a onrete stffness [D gl ] and a renforement stffness [D gl ] s as: σ [R α ] σ [ ] τ Dgl =, 46 x y γ xy Thus the total stffness beomes: [ ] +s [ ] [ ] s, Dgl = Dgl + Dgl + [R α s] x y γ xy ρ s f s [R α s ], and ρ s f s [R α s] [ ] s Dgl =. x y γ xy x s α α α Fg. 7 Coordnate system for renfored onrete element. s x ρ s f s where [D gl ] s the tangent materal onsttutve matrx of onrete; and [D gl ] s s the tangent materal onsttutve matrx of the steel bars. The equvalent un-axal strans an be alulated from the global strans usng: γ = [µ] [Rα ] where [μ] s the Hsu/Zhu rato matrx as shown n Eq.. After substtutng Eq. 49 nto Eq. 46: σ σ σ γ [ ] σ σ σ Dgl = [R α ] γ [µ] [Rα ]. From Eq. 5, the onrete loal tangental stffness an be wrtten as: [D lo ] = σ σ σ σ τ τ After substtutng Eq. 5 nto Eq. 5: [ ] Dgl = [R α ] [D lo ] [µ] [Rα ]. The dagonal terms n Eq. 64 matrx an be found dretly from the un-axal stresses and strans n the respetve dretons. The frst dagonal term σ = Ē s the tangental un-axal modulus of onrete n the -dreton, the seond dagonal term σ = Ē s the tangental un-axal modulus of onrete n the -dreton, and the thrd dagonal term τ = σ σ γ = G s the shear modulus. The off-dagonal terms σ and σ are obtaned usng the un-axal stresses and the unaxal strans n the orthogonal dreton. These off-dagonal terms are not zero beause the stress and strans of the onrete n ompresson s softened by the perpendular tensle strans. Therefore, [D lo ] an be wrtten as: [D lo ] = Ē τ τ σ γ σ γ τ γ σ σ Ē G. x y γ xy, τ γ

Table summarzes the spemens strength values for both the expermental results and analytal predtons. 8 Conlusons Ths paper represents a new element for yl analyss of renfored onrete strutures. A fber-based beam element s developed to analyze renfored onrete strutures wth the norporaton of mehansms of shear deformaton and strength. Smplfed yl un-axal onsttutve relatons are developed and heked wth the -D yl test panels of Mansour. The tangent stffness s formulated wth the nluson of the softenng and dlataton effets. The reverse yl analyses of dfferent olumns wth retangular ross-setons are analyzed wth the -D fber beam element. The yl analyss of olumns tested by Yeh and Mo 999 are analyzed wth the -D fber beam element. The olumns wth dfferent aspet rato exhbt dfferent behavors. The numeral results onernng the olumns agree wth the expermental data throughout the entre loadng hstory. The fnte element analyss usng the generalzed Softened Membrane Model predted the expermental results throughout the loadng hstory, nludng the ntal stffness, yeld pont, ultmate strength, and falure mode; and ould therefore be used to smulate the behavor of RC strutures under sesm loadng.
