Abstract

This paper investigates the strength reduction factor (f) of reinforced concrete (RC) columns using Monte-Carlo simulation (MCS). The main objective of this paper is to evaluate the strength reduction factor of the RC using the authors' developed code. This code is important for further research to check other important effects when high-strength materials are used. The investigated RC column concrete compressive strengths (fc) are 40 and 60 MPa while the rebar strengths (fy) are set to 320, 400, and 500 MPa. Fiber-based cross-sectional analysis is used to compute the axial-moment interaction capacity of the RC column. The concrete compressive block is used to model the concrete contribution and the bilinear stress-strain model is adopted for the rebar. These simplifications can reduce the difficulties when solving the equilibrium of the forces in the sectional analysis. The parameters used in the sensitivity analysis of the strength reduction factor (f) are the concrete compressive strength (fc), the rebar yield strength (fy), the longitudinal rebar ratio (r), and the column size (b,h). The effect of the coefficient of variations for each material on the resistance variation coefficient of the RC is also investigated. From the analysis, it can be concluded that when the RC column falls in the tension-controlled region, the obtained strength reduction factor is 0.93 which is slightly higher than the value of f in ACI 318-19. On the other hand, when the RC column falls in the compression-controlled region, the obtained strength reduction factor is 0.6 which is lower than the value of f in ACI 318-19 which is 0.65.

Abstract

Diffusion is believed to be the main mechanism of fluid ingress into the concrete. However, in partially saturated concrete, the fluid will mainly be absorbed by the capillary suction mechanism, which associates with the sorptivity properties of the concrete. This paper presents the results of an experimental program to investigate the influence of Portland cement substitution with Silica Fume (SF) and Type F Fly Ash (FA) on the rate of absorption, which also known as sorptivity, and chloride penetration of concrete. The sorptivity of the concrete was evaluated according to ASTM 1585, while the chloride penetration was evaluated according to ASTM C 1202. By substituting part of cement with FA and SF, it was found that the sorptivity of concrete is reduced. Furthermore, all type of concrete with supplementary material, including CFA, CSF and CSM, is confirmed to enhance the ability of concrete to resist chloride penetration compared yo normal concrete (NC).

Abstract

This paper presents strength reduction factor evaluation of circular reinforced concrete column with varying eccentricity ratio (e/h) using the first-order-reliability-methods. The resistance properties of the reinforced concrete column is estimated using the monte-carlo simulation with random normally distributed material properties. Only dead and live load combination considered in the analysis. The parameters being investigated when evaluating the resistance of the reinforced concrete column are the concrete compressive strength, steel yield strength, coefficient of variation for both the concrete and steel materials, reinforced concrete column size, and the longitudinal reinforcement ratio. When evaluating the strength-reduction factor, the safety index values are 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0. From the analysis, it was found out that the strength reduction factor, for e/h higher than one and with safety index equal to 3.0, was equal to 0.9 which agrees well with the ACI 318 strength reduction factor for tension-controlled region. However, for e/h lower than one and safety index equal to 3.0, the strength reduction factor was equal to 0.6 which was lower than the ACI 318 strength reduction factor for compression-compression controlled region.
