Seismic performance of earthquake-damaged corroded reinforced concrete beam-column joints retrofitted with basalt fiber-reinforced polymer sheets
This present research conducted an experimental study on the influence of different earthquake damages on the seismic performances of aged reinforced concrete (RC) beam-column joints retrofitted with basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) sheets under cyclic loadings. Six beam-column joints included one benchmark specimen, one uncorroded specimen retrofitted with BFRP sheets, and four earthquake-damaged corroded specimens with the corrosion rates of 0% and 9% retrofitted with BFRP sheets. Test results demonstrated that the seismic performances of earthquake-damaged corroded specimens effectually improved after retrofitting with BFRP sheets, and the retrofitting effectiveness was significantly affected by the earthquake-damaged levels. The bucking of stirrups, spalling and crushing of concrete of retrofitted specimens were effectually postponed, while the ductility of corroded and uncorroded specimens under the earthquake damages increased after retrofitting with BFRP sheets. The total cumulative energy dissipation and final stiffness of retrofitted specimens considerably improved with the maximum increase of 22.3% and 14.3% comparing to those of benchmark specimen, respectively. Besides, the models for predicting the shear strength of RC beam-column joint cores considering the influences of earthquake damage, reinforcement corrosion, and FRP retrofitting were proposed.
