Development of theoretical model for predicting flexural behavior of GFRP reinforced concrete beams with CFRP grid‐reinforced ECC
Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) concrete beams reinforced by carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) grid reinforced engineering cementitious composite (ECC) have excellent flexural performance and corrosion resistance in marine environments. However, the lack of a reliable theoretical model for predicting the flexural behavior of the hybrid beams makes it challenging apply them in the practical engineering. To address this issue, a series of numerical models were established to investigate the effects of key parameters on the flexural behavior of the hybrid beams, including the peak load, the neutral axis height, and the sectional stress distribution. Subsequently, based on the influence of the failures of different materials on the flexural performance of the hybrid beam, the loads of four feature points were calculated in the theoretical model to predict the entire load–displacement curve. Finally, the application range of the theoretical model was given based on the neutral axis height. The results showed that the cover thickness of the ECC, the GFRP reinforcement ratio and the cross‐sectional area of the CFRP grid were the key factors affecting the flexural performance of the hybrid beams. The theoretical model established in this study can predict the load–displacement curve accurately and can provide a reference for the subsequent design of the hybrid beams.
