Influence of Steel Fiber and Carbon Fiber Mesh on Plastic Hinge Length of RCC Beams under Monotonic Loading

The most susceptible area of a structural member, where the inelastic rotation would take place, is plastic hinge. At this stage, flexural elements in particular achieve their maximal bending flexibility. This study uses finite element analysis (FEA) and experimental inquiry to analyze test effects carbon fiber mesh jacketing steel reinforcement at concrete beam’s hinge length subjected vertical monotonic load. compressive strength, split tensile strength tests are used evaluate mechanical qualities, such as M25 grade that cast specimens. While conducting analysis, seven different parameters taken into account. After conventional beam has been cast, steel-fiber reinforced cast. Several empirical formulas drawn from Baker, Sawyer, Corley, Mattock, Paulay, Priestley, Park’s methods were calculate Finally, was inserted independently 150 mm mechanism using techniques described by Paulay Priestley. analytical results compared. obtained investigations applying loads show fibers specific lengths 41 kN ultimate load with 11.63 displacement, which similar performance. Meanwhile, wrapped throughout behaves better than other members, showing an 64 15.95 deflection. provided perform similarly those beam; eventually, they become economical without sacrificing strength.
