Reinforced Masonry Column’s Analysis: The Influence of Rounded Corners
Numerical analysis of masonry structures is a complex task requiring deep knowledges about the problematics. This paper deals with concentrically compressed brick masonry column reinforced by fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping. The experimental research across the world has proved that FRP external sheets are an efficient tool for stabilization or strengthening of masonry structures. A combination of several types of column’s failure were observed during the experimental testing – failure in masonry, rupture of FRP sheet or failure at interface between reinforcement and masonry support. The rupture of sheet occurs close to sharp corners under the assumption of sheets’ perfect overlap. The rounded corners result in an enlargement of the FRP-masonry contact and reduction of the stress concentration. The increasing of an effective area causes a greater influence of FRP wrapping. For all 3D simulations the commercial software package ABAQUS was used and the obtained results are discussed.
