报告摘要:

Glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars in construction are increasing in popularity due to their excellent corrosion resistance, high tensile-strength-to-weight ratio and low maintenance. Geopolymer is a modern cementitious material that is known for its corrosion resistance and low carbon footprint. Combining the two could produce a green yet durable composite material that can be applied to aggressive environments such as Australia’s coastal zones. This study experimentally investigates the load-moment interaction of GFRP-reinforced air cured geopolymer concrete columns. The behaviour of reinforced geopolymer concrete columns reinforced with GFRP bars and stirrups under combined loading were studied with eleven half-scale specimens. A total of 22 rectangular, 22 square and 30 circular columns were examined. Three different stirrup spacings were examined, small, medium and large. Effective confinement was achieved by reducing the stirrup spacing such that high strains were measured in the concentric columns with closely spaced stirrups. A comparison between the experimental data and international design codes showed that such codes were conservative when ignoring the compressive strengths of the longitudinal GFRP bars. The experimental results were better represented when the compressive strengths of the bars were included; on average, the GFRP reinforced geopolymer concrete columns exhibited about 10% increase in strength with respect to unreinforced concrete sections. Finite element modelling was carried out and good match was found between predicted and measured load-deflection curves.
