Place the best performing reinforcement
(fibers and/or rebars) where required by
tensile stresses in the structural elements
Optimized reinforcement: definition
G. Plizzari
Applicazioni del FRC – Lecce, 9 Febbraio, 2017 3/72
• In structural elements both distributed and localized
stresses are generally present
• Conventional rebars represent the best
reinforcement for localized stresses
• Fibers represent the best reinforcement for diffused
stresses
• Structural optimization generally requires the use of
a combination of rebars and fibers
• Structural ductility is generally enhanced

Ultimate Limit States (ULS) Verification
The bending failure is considered to occur when one of the following conditions arises:
• attainment of the maximum compressive strength, cu, in the FRC;
• attainment of the maximum tensile strength su, in the steel (if present);
• attainment of the maximum tensile strength, Fu, in the FRC.

For bonded beams
rs = 0,67 %: concrete crushing → steel rupture
rs = 1,34 %: concrete crushing → concrete crushing more ductile
Fibers do influence ductility and rupture mode under flexure
FRC:
- Increase in concrete compressive toughness;
- Optimization steel-to-concrete bond;
- Tension Softening at crack;
- More chance to stress concentration.

Shear in beams without stirrups
V = Vc + Vf
In FRC elements there is an additional contribution to shear resistance provided by fiber reinforcement:
Vc represents the concrete contribution.Vf represents the fiber contribution (post cracking strength).

La verifica di elementi di calcestruzzo fibrorinforzato con armatura
convenzionale può essere eseguita con i metodi tradizionalmente
adottati per il calcestruzzo armato; il contributo delle fibre può essere
considerato adottando metodi di analisi non lineare (analisi limite,
analisi non lineare evolutiva).

a) Quando il calcestruzzo non contiene aria aggiunta, le sue prestazioni dovrebbero essere verificate conformemente ad un metodo di prova appropriato rispetto ad un calcestruzzo per il quale è provata la resistenza al gelo/disgelo per la relativa classe di esposizione.
b) Qualora la presenza di SO42- comporti le classi di esposizione XA2 e XA3, è essenziale utilizzare un cemento resistente ai solfati.
Se il cemento è classificato a moderata o ad alta resistenza ai solfati, il cemento dovrebbe essere utilizzato in classe di esposizione XA2 (e in classe di esposizione XA1 se applicabile) e il cemento ad alta resistenza ai solfati dovrebbe essere utilizzato in classe di esposizione XA3.

In FRC beams the crack widths were in the range of 0.1 to 0.2 mm, without overcome the
threshold of 0.2 mm. In plain beam the 93.3% of cracks had a crack width over 0.1 mm, while
the 60% over 0.2 mm.

To use thin overlays made of an innovative steel fiber reinforced mortar for:
• improving the out-of-plane resistance of masonry walls (future step of the research);
• enhancing the in-plane shear capacity of the masonry walls
Experimental tests on walls: aim of the research
