The parameters tracked were central deflection, rebar strain, and applied load.ĭata was collected as sets of excel sheets saved from the instruments. Monotonically applied concentric loading increasing at a rate of 5 kN/min. Load was applied using a hydraulic jack, central deflections were tracked using a linear transducer and strains were monitored via strain gauges glued on the GFRP bars. The data presented in this paper was obtained from large-scale tests on GFRP-reinforced synthetic-fiber reinforced SCC slabs subject to monotonically increasing concentric loading. Numerical studies on the simulation of fiber-reinforced concrete would also find value in this data to validate the numerical model and enable it to be used for further studies. Any future models for analyzing the punching shear behavior and capacity of flat slabs reinforced with GFRP rebars will find this data valuable for model validation, and for establishing suitable safety factors for design.
Applied load, central deflections, and bar strain were monitored during the experiment and are provided in the supplementary data. Three of the specimens tested were reinforced by 1.25% of volume of synthetic fiber, and three were control specimens cast from regular SCC. Three different reinforcement bar spacings were used to consider the effect of reinforcement ratio on punching shear resistance. The data was collected from tests performed on six full-scale specimens centrically loaded until failure as indicated by penetration of the column stub into the slab and achieving a sharp drop in the load carrying capacity.
This article provides experimental data on the punching shear behavior of synthetic fiber-reinforced slabs reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars and cast from self-consolidating concrete (SCC).
