Introduction Kachlakev et. al. 2001 (1.) tested a reinforced concrete (RC) “Control Beam” used for
baseline calibration of analysis to compute effects of adding fiber reinforced polymer
(FRP) composites to strengthen full-size reinforced concrete beams. The purpose of the
original work was to predict improvements to adding FRP composite reinforcement
similar to the transverse beams use at the Horsetail Creek Bridge. The beams were
fabricated and tested at Oregon State University (Kachlakev and McCurry 2000).
The purpose of this summary is to present results of revising the RC “Control Beam”
and computing the load deflection curve using MSC/Marc for comparison to the
experimental test data. Results using Ansys and Abaqus are also compared.
As additional information, the loading to produce (a.) initial cracking and (b.) ultimate
capacity is computed using ACI 318.
For comparison purposes the finite element idealization mesh density used in the
Kachlakev paper is reproduced as a closely as possible.

Concrete : Isotropic Properties
The concrete is idealized using 3D solid elements. Young’s modulus of elasticity for the concrete is given as:
Concrete Material Properties Es= 2.806x 106 psi ν =0.2
Critical Cracking Stress (Rupture Stress) fr = 329 psi
Crushing Strain, εc = 0.0017 in/in
Note: Plasticity definition data for MSC/Marc is defined as post-yield, or plastic, portion of the stress strain curve; e.g. yield
stress zero net plasticity. Typical engineering data for stress-strain curves are defined as total nominal strain.

Stage 2: Elastic Moment of Inertia Calculations for Cracked Section
When the maximum tensile stress in the concrete exceeds modulus of rupture, fr, the cross section
is assumed to be "cracked" and all the tensile stress is assumed to be carried by the Lower steelreinforcement. The compressive stress in the remaining concrete is assumed to remain elastic.
Calculate the location of the neutral axis for the cracked section from the top of the beam, "ccrack".

Stage 3: Ultimate Strength Calculations for Cracked Section
For ultimate load carrying strength capability tension stress in the concrete is assumed nonexistentand maximum compressive strain is assumed to equal εc = 0.003. The magnitude of compressive
strain is representative of concrete with compressive strength from 2,000 < f'c < 6,000 psi. The
balancing tensile loading is assumed fully carried by the steel reinforcement with the steel materialat yielding at fs_ty. Calculate the location of the neutral axis for the cracked section from the top of
the beam, "ccrack".
