Modelling of Strengthened Steel Connections under Static and Cyclic Loading
The rehabilitation of steel structures with Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP’s) may appear less effective because they can be bolted or welded with steel plates that display the same mechanical properties. However, this technique has some unwanted consequences such as additional dead weight and an increased risk of corrosion. The aim of the proposed study, therefore, is to present a technique for modelling steel connections strengthened with FRP’s. Two types of composites: Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) and Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) are considered. They are used to strengthen welded steel connections. The main objective consists in evaluating the effect of the reinforcement on the load-carrying capacity of these connections under monotonic and cyclic loadings. The steel is considered to behave in a linear elastic perfectly plastic fashion with isotropic strain hardening, and the FRP’s are assumed to behave linearly up to failure. The behaviour of the adhesive is modelled with the Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) available in Abaqus. Lastly, a parametric study is carried out to investigate the eventuality of strengthening connections made with I-sections, which are very common in practice.
