Three strengthening designs based on ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) are proposed in this study to improve the impact resisting performance of reinforced concrete (RC) components. Drop hammer impact tests show that UHPC strengthened beams exhibit good impact resistance, with non-attached interfaces leading to even better impact resistance. Nonlinear finite element modeling was used to further interpret the experimental results and study the effects of different parameters on the shear mechanisms of RC beams and RC-UHPC beams.
To improve the impact resisting performance of reinforced concrete (RC) components, three strengthening designs based on ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) are proposed in this study. Drop hammer impact test was conducted to evaluate the dynamic response and failure modes of RC beams and UHPC strengthened RC-UHPC beams. Test specimens included two control RC beams, a RC beam with UHPC layer retrofitted on the tension surface, a RC beam with UHPC layers retrofitted on both the compression and tension sides, two RC beams with UHPC layer that was not directly attached to the tension surface, but with 5 mm gap between the interfaces. Test results showed UHPC strengthened beams had a good impact resistance. Under the impact from 641 kg weight dropping from 0.5 m, with a 15 mm UHPC layer directly attached to the tension surface of the RC beam, the crack pattern shifted from concrete spalling to diagonal shear failure, and the maximum and residual displacements decreased by 9.1% and 25.3%, respectively. RC-UHPC beams with non-attached interfaces exhibited even better impact resistance, the UHPC layer was able to develop multiple energy dissipating tensile cracks prior to failure, and the gap ensured a larger moment resistance leading to reduced beam deflections. The repeated impacts were performed on RC-UHPC beams. With the same total impact energy, the single impact was found to be more hazardous than the repeated impacts. Nonlinear finite element modelling was developed to further interpret the experimental results. With the validated numerical model, energy absorption curves, dynamic shear force and bending moment distribution diagrams were derived. Based on the experimental and numerical data, the shear mechanisms of RC beams and RC-UHPC beams were studied. The effects of non-attached spacing length, spacing depth and UHPC layer thickness were investigated in the parametric study.
