Abstrait:

Once a RC structure is laterally restrained, both the static and dynamic load resistances will be enhanced due to the membrane action. Despite this known advantage, the apparent lack of systemic and efficient methods of analysis poses a drawback in the design and assessment of blast-resistant RC structures. First, a simplified membrane action theory was presented by modifying the maximum membrane force design method (MMFM) for predicting the total static resistance-deflection curves of restrained beam-slab RC structures. Second, a series of constrained beams were tested to validate the new theory, for which better agreement was observed between the test data, the results predicted by the proposed theory and those by MMFM. The results show that the static load carrying capacity and membrane force increase with increasing restraint stiffness, and the smaller the reinforcement ratio is, the larger the load carrying capacity increases. Third, based on the improved compressive static membrane action theory, a new analytical method was developed to investigate the dynamic responses of restrained RC structures subjected to blast loads, using an equivalent single degree of freedom system that combines the three-parameter elasto-viscoplastic rate-sensitive material model with the proposed static theory. Good agreement is observed between the test data and the analytical results. Finally, it is demonstrated that the dynamic resistance capacity increases with increasing load rate and restraint stiffness and with decreasing tensile reinforcement ratio, but the larger the dynamic resistance is, the larger the plastic deformation of the structure.
