Abstract

This article presents an experimental study on the flexural performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with fiber reinforced cementitious composites (FRCC) and hybrid fiber reinforced cementitious composites (HFRCC) in the hinge portion. Beam specimens with moderate confinement were used in the study and tested under monotonic loading. Seven diverse types of FRCC including hybrid composites using fibers in different profiles and in different volumes are employed in this study. Companion specimens such as cylindrical specimens and prism specimens are also used to study the physical properties of composites employed. The moment-curvature, stiffness behavior, ductility, crack pattern and modified flexural damage ratio are the main factors considered in this study to observe the efficacy of the employed hybrid composites. The experimental outputs demonstrate the improved post yield behavior with less rate of stiffness degradation and better damage tolerance capacity than conventional technique.
