| Popis: | Corrosion of reinforcing bars is a common deficiency for existing RC buildings, which may have significant adverse effects on seismic performance of those buildings. The main effects of corrosion of reinforcing bars are strength loss as a result of reduction of the effective cross-sectional area of the bars, reduced bond strength between concrete and bars as a result of the increased volume of the bars because of rust products, and reduced elongation capacity of the bars as a result of the concentration of plastic deformations at sections of corrosion pits. The last item (concentration of plastic deformations of reinforcing bars only at the most heavily corroded sections rather than occurring all through the potential plastic hinge length) has a very remarkable adverse effect on the displacement capacity of existing buildings. It is known that the displacement capacity is as important as strength, particularly for the buildings that are designed to exhibit ductile behavior during earthquakes. In t... |
