Analysis and prediction of ultimate strength of high-strength SFRC plates under in-plane and transverse loads
Ramadoss Perumal and S. Palanivel

 
Abstract
    Plates are most widely used in the hulls of floating concrete structures, bridge decks, walls of offshore structures and liquid storage tanks. A method of analysis is presented for the determination of loaddeflection response and ultimate strength of high-strength steel fiber reinforced concrete (HSSFRC) plates simply supported on all four edges and subjected to combined action of external compressive in-plane and transverse loads. The behavior of HSSFRC plate specimens subjected to combined uniaxial in-plane and transverse loads was investigated. The proposed analytical method is compared to the physical test results, and shows good agreement. To predict the constitutive behavior of HSSFRC in compression, a nondimensional characteristic equation was proposed and found to give reasonable accuracy.
