Micro Mechanical Measurement of Concrete Strain to Evaluate Principal Strain Distribution in RCC Moderate Deep Beams across its Width and Depth
This paper investigates the distribution of principal strain by micro mechanical measurement of concrete axial strain in Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) moderate deep beams across its width and depths for various span-to-depth ratios. A complete shear deformational behavior along with load-deflection response, crack patterns and modes of failure were studied experimentally. Twelve beams were t...
متن کاملVariation of Shrinkage Strain within the Depth of Concrete Beams
The variation of shrinkage strain within beam depth was examined through four series of time-dependent laboratory experiments on unreinforced concrete beam specimens. Two types of beam specimens, horizontally cast and vertically cast, were tested; shrinkage variation was observed in the horizontally cast specimens. This indicated that the shrinkage variation within the beam depth was due to wat...
متن کاملVertex Effect in Strain-Softening Concrete at Rotating Principal Axes
The inelastic behavior of concrete for highly nonproportional loading paths with rotating principal stress axes is studied. Test cylinders are first loaded in compression under uniaxial stress and then torsion is applied at constant axial displacement. Proportional compressive-torsional loading tests are also carried out for comparison. The tests demonstrate that the response of concrete for lo...
متن کاملA Micro Strain Gauge with Mechanical Amplifier
A passive micro strain gauge with a mechanical amplifier has been designed, analyzed, and tested. The mechanical amplifier provides a high gain such that residual strain in thin films can be directly measured under an optical microscope. This strain gauge can be in situ fabricated with active micro sensors or actuators for monitoring residual strain effects, and both tensile and compressive res...
متن کاملA Semi-analytical Solution for Flexural Vibration of Micro Beams Based on the Strain Gradient Theory
In this paper, the flexural free vibrations of three dimensional micro beams are investigated based on strain gradient theory. The most general form of the strain gradient theory which contains five higher-order material constants has been applied to the micro beam to take the small-scale effects into account. Having considered the Euler-Bernoulli beam model, governing equations of motion are w...
