Summary: | This paper presents an experimental program of initial testing of reinforced concrete beams using bars and textiles carried out with an aim of comparative analysis of the behaviour of reinforced concrete beams using textiles in relation to conventional reinforced beams. Alkalineresistant glass fibre textile meshes were used for the purposes of the experiment. An experiment setting is described and obtained test results are presented in this paper. An analysis of the obtained results is presented at the end of the paper. The experimental program demonstrated that adding textile mesh, besides improvement of the durability of the protective layer of concrete, can improve the load-bearing capacity and ductility of reinforced concrete beams. There is still an issue related to workability of concrete in textile reinforced beams and achievement of full adhesion between textile mesh and concrete. At the end of the paper, a suggestion was given about semi-prefabricated reinforced concrete beams using reinforced bars and textiles. |
