Experimental study of the structural behavior of non-prismatic reinforced concrete frame using different types of concrete under static and repeated load

This paper experimentally investigates the behavior of a non-prismatic concrete frame using different types under static and repeated loads. The parametric study includes changing type (conventional concrete, steel fiber reactive powder (SF-RPC) glass (GF-RPC)) loading (static repeated). results were presented discussed effect SF-RPC GF-RPC on behavior, compared with conventional through first crack load, ultimate load failure mode, load–deflection curve, frame-deflected shape. There evidences improvement in properties, such as change an increase well stiffness all loading. increased by 45.9 40.5% for frames, respectively. Using RPC improves fatigue resistance, decreases only 2% influence load. In comparison, 27%. use specimens shear strength frame. is environmentally friendly recycled materials mixtures (silica fume, fiber, fiber), also structural sections are small; thus, gasses emitted (CO2) few. As as, it eliminates need to consume new impede construction public, because extension life.
