Rückseitige Verstärkung von Stahlbetonplatten unter Impaktbeanspruchung

Im Rahmen der beschriebenen Arbeit erfolgt die experimentelle Untersuchung von nachträglich an Stahlbetonplatten aufgetragenen Verstärkungsschichten, die einer Impaktbelastung ausgesetzt werden. Die Grundlage hierfür bilden drei verschieden bewehrte Testserien, welche anhand eines entwickelten Versuchsschemas geprüft werden. Zielstellung ist die Quantifizierung der Leistungsfähigkeit rückseitig applizierter Verstärkungen sowie die Weiterentwicklung einer bereits existierenden Schädigungsbeschreibung und eines analytischen bzw. numerischen Modells

Behaviour of reinforcement in drop tower beam tests

Drop tower tests help to gain understanding about the general behaviour of reinforced concrete members under impact loading and to analyse strains and strain rates occurring within their reinforcement. For this purpose, beam and slab specimens are usually employed. The main advantage of beams compared to slabs is that they are less complex due to the almost two-dimensional instead of three-dimensional wave propagation within them. To investigate the steel strains and strain rates, ten impact tests on beam specimens with various impact energies were performed. The impactor sizes and velocities were varied. The reinforcement bars of the beams were instrumented with semiconductor strain gauges. The measured data suggest that the occurring strains in beam tests are independent of the loading velocity. The same was found for the strain rates. The reason is that higher impact energies mostly influence the concrete damage due to spalling on the impact-facing side which happens after the maximum strains occurred. The strains in the reinforcement bars generally result from the overall deflection because of the impact, the spreading of longitudinal waves in the horizontal direction, and the localized cracking of the concrete due to the formation of a punching cone

Reinforced Concrete Plates under Impact Load—Damage Quantification

A large number of impact experiments have been carried out at the Technische Universität Dresden in recent years in several research projects. The focus was on reinforced concrete plates on the one hand and on subsequently strengthened reinforced concrete plates on the other hand. Based on these investigations, two fundamental tasks arose: (1) finding an objective description of the damage of components made of steel reinforced concrete that had previously been subjected to an impact load and (2) quantification of the effect of a subsequently applied strengthening layer. In this paper we will focus on both. At first, the experimental conditions and program as well as the used drop tower facility at the Otto Mohr Laboratory of the Technische Universität Dresden are briefly explained. In the summary presentation of the main test results, the focus is on the observed component damage. Based on the observations, an approach for a damage description is presented. To define global damage, the stiffness of the investigated structural components before and after the impact event is used. At the end of the paper, the potential of the method, but also gaps in knowledge and research needs are discussed
