Calculation of the Flexural Capacity of GFRP-reinforced Concrete with Circular Section
The GFRP-reinforced concrete pile is applied more and more in foundation pit such as subway station working well,which needs cutting the pile afterwards,but the calculation of its bending capacity is not perfect now.Based on the equilibrium condition of forces,considering the characters of circular cross section,concrete and GFRP bars,this article deduced a calculation formula for bending capacity of GFRP-reinforced concrete with circle cross section.Theoretical analysis and practical calculation show that compared with existed methods,the formula given in this paper has clear mechanical meaning and considered the influence of elastic modulus and stress state of the GFRP reinforcing bars on the bending capacity
