    Investigation of Strengthened Low Slenderness Rc Column by Using Textile Reinforced Mortar Strip Under Axial Load
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2022) Mercimek, Omer; Ghoroubi, Rahim; Ozdemir, Anil; Anil, Ozgur; Erbas, Yasar
    An experimental and numerical study was conducted to improve the critical performance of low slenderness reinforced concrete columns, such as ultimate load capacity, initial stiffness, and energy dissipation capacity, using Textile-Reinforced Mortar (TRM) strip. A total of 17 reinforced concrete columns were fabricated and tested under uni-axial compression. The effect of carbon textile type, strip width and distance, usage of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) fan type anchors was investigated. The experimental part of the study indicated that the ultimate load capacities of reinforced concrete columns strengthened with TRM strips was increased to 1.19-1.78 times. Their initial stiffness increased to 1.01-1.99 times, and energy dissipation capacity values increased to 1.22 and 2.09 times. In addition, simulation models for the experimental specimens were created with the ABAQUS finite element software. Then the results of analyses and the experimental outputs were compared together and interpreted. Finally, using the verified FEM model, a parametric numerical study was carried out to determine the effect of the increase in the concrete compressive strength of the column on the performance of the specimens examined within the scope of the study. According to the main findings of this study, it was demonstrated that the application of the proposed TRM strips for strengthening reinforced concrete columns was a successful method.

    Novel Bond-Slip Model Between Concrete and Angular Cfrp Fan Type Anchoraged Cfrp Strip
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Ghoroubi, Rahim; Mercimek, Omer; Sakin, Shaimaa; Anil, Ozgur
    One of the most important design approaches in the repairing/strengthening details is using CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) to delay the debonding of the CFRP strips/plates from the surface to take full advantage of the CFRP reinforcement. Compared to non-anchored strips, research studies regarding bond-slip models developed for fan type CFRP anchors and anchored CFRP strips to strengthen details are limited in the related literature review. However, in studies on this subject, anchors are placed at 90 degrees to the axial tensile force applied to the CFRP strips. The ultimate load-bearing capacity and bond-slip models of CFRP strips with the different angled CFRP fan type anchor under axial tensile force have not been found in the literature review. Within the study's scope, 28 angled CFRP strip test specimens were produced and then tested under the effect of monotonically increasing axial tensile force with an experimental setup designed by the authors. The variables examined in this study were the concrete compressive power, the CFRP strip's width, the number of the CFRP anchor fan type, and the angle of the anchor placed on the CFRP strip. As a result of the study, an equation was proposed for calculating the ultimate load-bearing capacity of angled anchored CFRP strips and angled anchored CFRP strips. Finally, a new proposal for the bond-slip model was developed. It is thought that the new interface bond-slip model developed for CFRP strips with different angles will make an important contribution to the literature. It can be used in finite element analysis to realistically analyze the capacities and load-displacement behavior of reinforced concrete structural elements by strengthening such strips.

    Effect of Anchorage Number and Cfrp Strips Length on Behavior of Strengthened Glulam Timber Beam for Flexural Loading
    (Sage Publications inc, 2021) Isleyen, Ummu Karagoz; Ghoroubi, Rahim; Mercimek, Omer; Anil, Ozgur; Togay, Abdullah; Erdem, R. Tugrul
    Laminated wooden beams are more preferred in the production of wooden structures than solid timber beams because they have a higher load-carrying capacity and allow larger openings to be used in the structure. The widespread use of wooden structures and the increasing size of the structures have revealed the need for strengthened laminated wooden beams and increase their ultimate load capacity. It has become necessary to develop reinforcement details to increase the ultimate load capacity of laminated wooden beams in wooden railroads or highway bridge beams, where the traffic load increases, especially in large wooden structures, in cases where large openings must be passed. Within the horizon of the study, the behavior and performance of three-layer glulam wooden beams strengthened with anchorage and non-anchorage CFRP strips with different bonding length under flexural loading were investigated experimentally. The three-point bending test was applied to glulam timber beam test specimens produced by laminating yellow pine wood material using the polyurethane adhesive. General load-displacement behaviors, ultimate load capacity, initial stiffness, displacement ductility ratios, and energy dissipation capacities were obtained. The increase in the bonding length of the CFRP strips used for strengthening in the glulam timber beam specimens and the use of CFRP fan type anchors at the strip ends increased the ultimate load capacity and initial stiffness values of the wooden beams, as well as the displacement ductility ratios and energy dissipation capacity values.

    Behavior of Glulam Timber Beam Strengthened With Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Strip for Flexural Loading
    (Sage Publications Ltd, 2021) Isleyen, ummu K.; Ghoroubi, Rahim; Mercimek, Omer; Anil, Ozgur; Erdem, Recep Tugrul
    In the last 20 years, the use of wooden structures and their dimensions have gradually increased. The wood application has increased in different structures such as multistory buildings, sports, industrial facilities, road and railway bridges, power transmission lines, and towers. The widespread use and size of wood structures have increased the research on developing special types of wood products supported by composite materials. Laminated wood elements are the leading composite wood materials. Laminated wooden beams allow making much larger openings than standard solid wood structural elements. The development of the sizes and usage areas of wooden structures has increased the capacity of glulam structural elements and reveals the need to improve their performance. Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) are the most suitable options for increasing the bearing capacity values of glulam beams and improving general load-displacement behaviors. In this study, the use of CFRP strips in different layouts to increase glulam wooden beams and the application of CFRP fan-type anchors in the CFRP strip endpoints are the studied variables. Anchored and non-anchored glulam wooden beams reinforced with CFRP strips with different layouts were tested using a three-point bending test. The ultimate load capacity, initial stiffness, displacement ductility ratio, energy dissipation capacity, failure mechanisms, and general load-displacement behavior of wooden beam test specimens were obtained and interpreted as a result of the experiments.

    A New Novel Model Proposal For Bond-Slip Behavior Between Angular CFRP Fan Type Anchoraged CFRP Strip and Concrete Surface
    (2020) Ghoroubi, Rahim; Mercimek, Ömer; Anıl, Özgür; Özgür, A. C. Anıl
    In the reinforced concrete, masonry or steel structures should be strengthened or repaired. Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) have been widely used for the last 20 years for repairing and strengthening of inadequate earthquake performance of the structures. One of the most important developed design criteria in the retrofit and strengthening details are using CFRP to delay the debonding of the CFRP reinforcement elements. For this reason, the uses of anchors in the reinforcement details developed by using CFRP and also researches on this subject have increased substantially. In the literature, research on bond-slip models developed for fan type CFRP anchors and anchored CFRP strips used in reinforcement details are limited in comparison to non-anchored strips. However, in studies on this subject, anchors are placed at 90o to the axial tensile force applied to the CFRP strips. Axial force-bearing strength and bond-slip models of CFRP strips with the different anchored angle under axial tensile strengths have not been found in the literature. For this reason, an experimental study was carried out and 28 specimens of angled anchored CFRP strip test specimen, which was bonded to the concrete surface, was tested under the influence of axial tensile force with an experimental setup designed by the authors. The variables studied in the experimental study are the CFRP strip width and the fan type CFRP anchor angle placed on the CFRP strip. As a result of the experimental study, an equation was proposed for calculating the bearing strength values of angled anchored CFRP strips and a new proposal for the bond-slip model was developed.
