description abstract | Numerical analyses are performed to predict the stress–strain behavior of square reinforced concrete columns strengthened by fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheet confinement. The research focuses on the contribution of FRP sheets to the prevention of elastic buckling of longitudinal steel bars under compression, in cases of inadequate stirrup spacing. A new Drucker–Prager-type plasticity model is proposed for confined concrete and is used in constructed finite-element model. Suitable plasticity and elasticity models are used for steel reinforcing bars and fiber-reinforced polymers correspondingly. The finite-element analyses results are compared against published experimental results of columns subjected to axial compression, to validate the proposed finite-element model. Stress concentrations in concrete core and on FRP jacket are investigated considering circular or square sectioned, plain or reinforced concrete columns. Geometry of the section as well as the presence of steel bars and stirrups affect remarkably the variation and magnitude of stress on FRP as percentage of its tensile strength. | |
