A Study on the Test Method for Post-tensioned Prestressed Concrete Frame

A creative test method for post-tensioned prestressed frame is presented in this paper. In the test, the stationary supports at the column base are simulated and the forces at the column base can be tested while the two column bases are not connected with concrete beam. The prestressed secondary moment and the weight-produced moment are established by adjusting the support device at the column base. In this paper, the necessary conditions of the method and the basic process are recommended. It is proved theoretically that the prestressed concrete frame built by this method is equivalent to that used in practice.     

Test Analysis on Prestressed Frames with Three Kinds of Beam-column Section Strength

"Strong column with weak beam","strong beam with weak column" and"column & beam with equal strength"can be existed in one-storey prestressed concrete frames and the top storey of mult-storey prestressed concrete frames.Through the test of four prestressed concrete frames under vertical load,three kinds of prestressed concrete frames performances are studied,such as ultimate load,deflection,displacement ductility,redistribution of internal force.When the relative height of equivalent compression zone is smaller enough,the test proves that three kinds of prestressed concrete frames can realize full redistribution of internal force and have better displacement ductility,the width of cracks and deflections can satisfy the rules of code for design of concrete structures.     

Discussion on the Secondary Moment of Prestressed Frame

The suggestions would be able to distinguish the advantageous and disadvantageous effect of secondary moment. Some helpful advises for moment modulation design are given in this paper.     

Mechanical Behavior and Techno economic Analysis of Twice prestressed Simply Supported Composite Beam

Excessive creep camber of prestressed concrete bridge would result in risk on the traffic safety in high speed railway. To control creep camber of presstressed concrete bridge, a new twice prestressed technology was proposed to presstressed concrete beam. Four twice prestressed simply supported box girders with different prestressed degrees were designed as an example. Its section stress, strength and crack resistance in different construction stages were analyzed. Compared the creep camber between conventional prestressed simply supported concrete beam and twice prestressed simply supported composite beam with the same prestressed steels, it was shown that twice prestressed composite beam has a smaller stress gradient. And the creep camber decreased approximately 40% to 60% with building height reduction, as well as some 10% energy saving and some amount of concrete.

Numeric Analysis of the Dynamic Performance of a Prestressed Concrete Beam

The finite element of a prestressed concrete (PSC) beam is analyzed in a case of diverse prestressing forces. The mechanical model applied is that advanced by Clough for a concrete beam bearing axial force. The results indicate that the beam frequencies decrease with increasing prestressing force. A dynamic experiment of a non bonded PSC beam was carried out to validate the veracity of the finite element analysis. Test beam frequencies increase with increasing prestressing force. The analysis model thus is unfit for frequency analysis of a PSC beam. The determinant factor of frequencies is analyzed, and the dynamic model is modified according to experimental results. The modified model analysis result shows that: the calculated frequencies of mode 1 agree with the test results well; the frequencies of mode 2 posses some errors; and, the modified model can reflect the direction of frequency change along with the change of prestressing force well.

In this paper, the energy method has been used to study the change of the secondary moment of unbonded prestressed concrete continuous beams and it has been contrasted with bonded prestressed beams. The question, whether the secondary moment changes or not while loading, was answered. It shows that the primary secondary moment does not change when increment method is adopted to study the beams, but the total secondary moment will change while the force in prestressed reinforcement changes.

Spatial Calculation Methods of Three Main Trusses Continuous Plate truss Composite Bridge

According to the structural features of three main trusses continuous plate truss composite bridge, two composite beam methods are presented by constructing the displacement mode of composite beam elements and deriving the stiffness matrix of composite beam elements. The characteristic of composite beam method one is that the bridge slab is taken as the top flange of the chord of main truss and combined with the chord of main truss to form a steel concrete composite beam; the characteristic of composite beam method two is that the bridge slab is taken as the top flange of longitudinal and traverse beam and form a steel concrete composite beam with longitudinal and traverse beams. And as for the conventional plate beam composite method, the slab is characterized by forming bridge slab system with continuous isotropic sheets and longitudinal and traverse beams to bear load. Also, the comparison between theoretical results and experimental ones verifies the effectiveness of the above three methods.

Experimental Study on a Prestressed Frame of Two Spans Under Unsymmetric Load

By the experimental study on a full-dimensioned prestressed frame of two spans, the relative factors are analyzed such as relative height of equivalent compression zone in critical section, secondary moment, ratio of beam rigidity to column and development of cracks in the top of columns etc., which influence the moment distribution of the post-tensioned prestressed concrete frame from the side of internal force redistribution. It is believed that that the factors of relative height of concrete equivalent compression zone and secondary moment influence the moment modulation in most degree, and ratio of column rigidity to beam also plays a part in the moment modulation to some extent. Second, the plastic joints of frame with excessive spans exit in the span which endure the whole load, at last the whole frame is destroyed because of the destruction of the loading frame, the influence to the non-loading span is little.

Then, the control measure taken on these cracks is discussed.     

Experimental Analysis on the Mechanical Properties of Concrete Composite Slabs with Precast Prestressed Rectangular Rib Panels

For the convenience of industrialized production and site operation,specification design of PPCRP (precast prestressed concrete ribbed panels) is discussed. In order to obtain ultimate bearing capacity,bending rigidity and crack resistance,four PPCRP with two types of spans are studied,and the results show that PPCRP can satisfy the requirements of bearing capacity in construction phase and can serve as stay-in place formwork. To verify the mechanical property,shear behavior on contact interface of composite member and moment redistribution factor of continuous composite member,two single-span composite members and one two-span continuous composite member are studied. It is indicated that computational method for bearing capacity of composite member can be the same as cast-in-situ concrete slab. Besides,section strain analysis for composite member in two-loading is conducted,which suggests that thickness of bottom board can be used as calculated height with the consideration of two-loading.
