C - 25 Carbon-reinforced concrete under biaxial tensile load
Load-bearing and deformation behavior of carbon-reinforced concrete under biaxial tensile load
Carbon-reinforced concrete slabs show hygric and temperature-induced deformations in two perpendicular directions. These lead to biaxial stresses in the slab. If a biaxial tensile stress occurs, this results in cracks in the concrete up to yarn breakage. As a result of the interaction between the two load directions, the load-bearing and deformation behavior of carbon-reinforced concrete slabs deviates from uniaxial tensile tests.
In this thesis, slabs made of carbon-reinforced concrete are to be investigated experimentally under biaxial tensile loading. For this purpose, the results of existing research work on textile and carbon-reinforced concrete under biaxial tensile loading are first summarized and compared. Subsequently, experimental investigations on slabs made of carbon-reinforced concrete are carried out, evaluated and compared with the findings from the literature research. The aim is to characterize the load-bearing and deformation behavior of carbon-reinforced concrete under biaxial tensile loading.
The task will be specified in consultation with the student.
