As vigas mistas de aço e concreto têm sido muito empregadas em obras civis de pequeno e grande porte. O emprego em conjunto de vigas de aço e lajes de concreto armado visa explorar as melhores características de cada um dos elementos, gerando uma solução estrutural econômica e eficiente. Os conectores de cisalhamento, que são os dispositivos de união desses elementos, permitem a transferência do esforço cortante ao longo da estrutura. O presente trabalho trata-se de uma continuação do estudo realizado por Tamayo (2011), o qual desenvolveu um código computacional em linguagem Fortran 90, utilizando o método dos elementos finitos, que é capaz de representar estruturas de vigas mistas em análises de curta duração. A teoria da plasticidade associada com um algoritmo de retorno explícito para o concreto e aço foi empregada em um procedimento incremental iterativo. O presente trabalho visa incluir a análise de serviço no código elasto-plástico, ou seja, a consideração dos efeitos de longa duração que interferem na distribuição de tensões e deformações da estrutura. A teoria da solidificação proposta por Bazant e Prasannan (1988) foi empregada para analisar os efeitos devido à fluência do concreto. Para o cálculo da fluência empregou-se um modelo reológico baseado na cadeia de Kelvin em série. Usando conceitos da série de Dirichlet, os parâmetros desta cadeia foram obtidos através de uma aproximação por mínimos quadrados. Em conjunto com a teoria da solidificação, os modelos de fluência e retração, propostos pelo Comité Euro-International du Béton (1990), foram utilizados. O amolecimento do concreto foi adicionado ao modelo computacional. Para os conectores de cisalhamento foi testada uma nova formulação empregando uma rigidez secante. As tarefas de pré e pós processamento foram realizadas através do software GiD que auxiliou nas etapas de geração da geometria e malha de elementos finitos, confecção de arquivo de entrada, e visualização dos resultados. Exemplos testados experimentalmente foram empregados para validação do modelo numérico proposto. / Steel-concrete composite beams have been widely applied to both small and large civil works.

As vigas mistas de aço e concreto, por empregarem cada um desses materiais dentro de suas melhores características mecânicas, são uma boa solução estrutural para vários problemas de engenharia. Em função da geometria, carregamento e restrições de deslocamentos essas vigas apresentam vários modos de falhas que precisam ser verificados no seu dimensionamento. Nesse contexto, esse trabalho tem como objetivo estudar o comportamento das vigas mistas em situações onde a aplicação da não linearidade geométrica pode a priori ser importante. Em vigas simplesmente apoiadas, com a linha neutra localizada no perfil de aço e em vigas contínuas na região de momentos negativos, o perfil de aço está sujeito à compressão. Nessas situações os modos de falha de flambagem local, flambagem lateral por torção e flambagem distorcional (no caso de perfis I enrijecidos) podem ocorrer principalmente quando o perfil de aço é do tipo não compacto. Em vigas mistas com aberturas no perfil de aço, por exemplo, para passagem de tubulações, também há modos de falhas adicionais que devem ser investigados. O trabalho em questão foi conduzido empregando-se o código desenvolvido no CEMACOM com pequenas alterações para a priori permitir analisar problemas com pequenas não linearidades geométricas. Em paralelo empregou-se o software ANSYS customizado para analisar problemas com não linearidades geométricas significativas. Vários exemplos foram analisados empregando-se ambos os softwares e os resultados obtidos mostram o bom funcionamento do ANSYS customizado e do script para modelar vigas mistas. Por outro lado, algumas vigas analisadas demonstraram a carência de alguns recursos do programa desenvolvido no CEMACOM. / The steel - concrete composite beams are a good structural solution to various engineering problems. The main advantage of steel - concrete composite beams is to employ each of these materials within their best mechanical characteristics, which results in a more efficient stiffness/ weight ratio. Due to the geometry, loading and displacement constraints, these beams present several failure modes that need to be verified in their design. In simply supported beams, the steel profile is subjected to compression when the neutral line is located in the steel profile. In continuous beams, the steel profile is subject to compression in the hogging moment region. In these situations, local buckling, lateral - torsional buckling, and distortional buckling failure modes (in the case of I stiffened profiles) may occur. Local buckling becomes important when the steel profile is of the non-compact type. In several practical situations it is also common to use composite beams with openings in the steel profile, for example, for passage of pipes. This solution also introduces failure modes that must be investigated. A priori these problems require the use of a nonlinear geometric analysis to be studied. The work in question was conducted using the code developed in CEMACOM with small changes to a priori allow analyzing problems with small geometric nonlinearities. In parallel, the customized ANSYS software was used to analyze problems with significant geometric nonlinearities. Several examples were analyzed using both software and the results obtained show the proper functioning of the customized ANSYS and the script to model mixed beams. On the other hand, some analyzed beams demonstrated the lack of some resources of the program developed in CEMACOM.

A series of composite beam models are constructed for efficient high-fidelity beam analysis based on the variational-asymptotic method (VAM). Without invoking any a priori kinematic assumptions, the original three-dimensional, geometrically nonlinear beam problem is rigorously split into a two-dimensional cross-sectional analysis and a one-dimensional global beam analysis, taking advantage of the geometric small parameter that is an inherent property of the structure. The thermal problem of composite beams is studied first. According to the quasisteady theory of thermoelasticity, two beam models are proposed: one for heat conduction analysis and the other for thermoelastic analysis. For heat conduction analysis, two different types of thermal loads are modeled: with and without prescribed temperatures over the crosssections. Then a thermoelastic beam model is constructed under the previously solved thermal field. This model is also extended for composite materials, which removed the restriction on temperature variations and added the dependence of material properties with respect to temperature based on Kovalenoko’s small-strain thermoelasticity theory. Next the VAM is applied to model the multiphysics behavior of beam structure. A multiphysics beam model is proposed to capture the piezoelectric, piezomagnetic, pyroelectric, pyromagnetic, and hygrothermal effects. For the zeroth-order approximation, the classical models are in the form of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. In the refined theory, generalized Timoshenko models have been developed, including two transverse shear strain measures. In order to avoid ill-conditioned matrices, a scaling method for multiphysics modeling is also presented. Three-dimensional field quantities are recovered from the one-dimensional variables obtained from the global beam analysis. A number of numerical examples of different beams are given to demonstrate the application and accuracy of the present theory. Excellent agreements between the results obtained by the current models and those obtained by three-dimensional finite element analysis, analytical solutions, and those available in the literature can be observed for all the cross-sectional variables. The present beam theory has been implemented into the computer program VABS (Variational Asymptotic Beam Sectional Analysis).

The demand for an insert on composite sandwich structures to aid in the arrestment of face-core delamination is of great need. This research studies the use of a damage arrestment device (DAD) that connects the carbon fiber face sheets to the foam core to find whether an increase in the structural integrity of the sandwich beam results. Experimental analysis was employed to test the samples and was verified by a theoretical and finite element approach. The mechanical properties of LTM45/CF1803 pre-impregnated carbon fiber and Last-A-foam FR 6710 polyvinylchloride foam were experimentally analyzed using ASTM D3039 and ASTM D1621 standards respectively to verify the manufacturer’s data for the given material. With all the mechanical data, the effects of adding DAD keys to a delaminated composite sandwich beam were studied under a four-point bending test using ASTM standard D6272 and compared with non-delaminated beams to see if an increase in ultimate strength could be achieved. The initial delamination in the beams under consideration was one inch in length and located in between the loaded span of the beam. Two control beams were utilized for comparison: one with no defects, and another with a one inch delamination introduced at the face-core interface. The DAD keys were added in two different configurations to potentially stop the delamination propagation and increase the ultimate strength. In the first configuration DAD keys were added 0.25 inches on either side of the initial delamination in the transverse direction and provided a significant increase in strength over the delaminated control beam. The second configuration had a DAD key running along the longitudinal axis of the sandwich beam and resulted in a significant increase in ultimate strength over the delaminated control beam. After testing ten successful samples for each of the six different configurations, it was concluded that the addition of DAD keys in both configurations significantly increased the structural integrity of both the delaminated and non-delaminated control beams. With all the experimental data acquired, finite element models were created in COSMOS. The purpose of the finite element analysis was to validate the experimental results by comparing the deflections of the beam subjected to four-point bending during the experiment to the deflections found numerically. The deflections for the various DAD key configurations found in the experimental work were in agreement with the finite element results.

Composite beams are frequently used in building, combining a steel beam with either a concrete-filled steel deck or solid concrete slab. To ensure proper composite action, shear connectors, typically in the form of headed shear studs, are utilized. Traditionally, the strength assessment of these headed shear studs is made using empirical design specifications that are based on push-out tests, which have been widely conducted and standardized over the years. However, the standardized push-out tests have short-comings, such as uneven slab bearing, slab buckling, questions regarding the distribution of load to each stud, etc. A study was conducted to evaluate and compare the existing push-out test setup with two alternative test setups. The study also aimed to examine the behavior of headed shear studs in composite beams having deck deeper the current allowable limit of 3 in., as specified by American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) design specification. While the standard specification allows for steel decks with rib heights of up to 3 in., there are deck profiles deeper than 3 in. available in the market. Utilizing these deeper decks in composite beams offers several advantages, including faster and more cost-effective construction by reducing the number of beams required. This research therefore found that a major challenge in creating an alternative test setup involves eliminating moment at the interface between the concrete-filled steel deck and the steel beam. This moment leads to tension in the headed shear stud/stud group closest to the actuator, thus affecting the shear strength of the headed shear studs. Further, these headed shear studs have significant strength when used with 3.5 in. decks but further research is necessary. / Master of Science / Composite beams are widely used in building construction, combining a steel beam with either a concrete-filled steel deck or a solid concrete slab. To ensure their proper function, shear connectors are used, typically in the form of headed shear studs. Traditionally, the strength of these shear studs is determined using standardized push-out tests, but these tests some challenges like uneven slab bearing, questions about even load distribution, etc. In this study, the existing push-out test setup was evaluated and compared with two alternative setups. The behavior of headed shear studs in composite beams with deeper decks than the current allowable limit specified by design standards was also investigated. Using these deeper decks offers advantages such as faster and more cost-effective construction. One major challenge in creating an alternative test setup was eliminating the moment at the interface between the concrete-filled steel deck and the steel beam. This moment caused tension in the headed shear stud closest to the actuator, impacting the overall shear strength of the studs. Additionally, it was found that these shear studs show promising strength when used with 3.5 in. decks, but more research is needed to fully understand their capabilities. By exploring new test setups and considering deeper decks, this research contributes to improving the design and construction of composite beams, making them more efficient and reliable for future building projects.

Yes / GFRP profiled-concrete composite beams with groove shear connectors are analyzed using finite the element (FE) analysis. The concrete damaged plasticity (CDP) model was adopted for normal strength concrete (NSC) and reactive powder concrete (RPC). The orthotropic behaviour of GFRP profile was taken into consideration, and the bi-linear traction-separation model was used to investigate the bond-slip behavior between GFRP profile and concrete. Furthermore, parametric studies were conducted to investigate the effects of strength and the cross-sectional dimensions of concrete, strength (orthotropy), and the cross-sectional dimensions (the web height and the thickness of FRP plate). Numerical analysis results correlate well with experimental results. Based on numerical analysis, the composite beam with shear connectors spacing at 100 mm has a deflection-limit load of 21.4 % higher than the specimens with 150 mm spacing. It is possible to improve the bonding behavior of interfaces by using groove shear connectors. The ultimate load and deformation, and pseudo-ductility were significantly improved by using RPC with high strength and toughness (ultimate compressive strain). GFRP profiles with greater orthotropy coefficients provide fully utilized concrete's compressive strength, preventing premature crushing and enhancing composite structure stiffness. Flexural performance of the composite beams can be improved efficiently by choosing the appropriate sectional size during design and construction. / The authors would like to thank the financial support provided by the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province, China (BK20201436), the Science and Technology Project of Jiangsu Construction System (2018ZD047, 2021ZD06), the Science and Technology Project of Gansu Construction System (JK2021-19), the Open Foundation of Jiangsu Province Engineering Research Center of Prefabricated Building and Intelligent Construction (2021), the High-End Foreign Experts Project of Ministry of Science and Technology, China (G2022014054L), the Science and Technology Cooperation Fund Project of Yangzhou City and Yangzhou University (YZU2022194, YZU212105), the Blue Project Youth Academic Leader of Colleges and Universities in Jiangsu Province (2020), the Science and Technology Project of Yangzhou Construction System (2022ZD03, 202204) and the Technology Innovation Cultivation Fund of Yangzhou University (2020-65).
