THE INFLUENCE OF THE DAMAGED REINFORCING BARS ON THE STRESS-STRAIN STATE OF THE REIN-FORCED CONCRETE BEAMS - Production Enginnering Archives

The article is devoted to the overall view of experimental research of reinforced concrete beams with the simultaneous influence of the corrosion environment and loading. The tests have been carried out upon the reinforced concrete specimens considering the corrosion in the acid environment, namely 10 % H2SO4 that have been taken as a model of the aggressive environment. The beams are with span equalling to 1,9m with different series of tensile armature, concrete compressive strength and different length of impact of corrosion (continuous and local). The influence of simultaneous action of the aggressive environment and loading on strength of reinforced-concrete beams has been de-scribed. For a detailed study of the effect of individual components there was suggested additional experimental modelling of the only tensile armature damage without concrete damage. It will inves-tigate the influence of this factor irrespective of the concrete.
