Io INTRODUCTION

10 Objective

The ultimate objective of the investigation of which this

project is a part is to obtain by means of tests of reinforced

concrete beams and analyses of these tests information which will

contribute to a better understanding of and a more accurate predic­

tion of the strength and behavior of reinforced concrete structures

subjected to dynamic loadingo

The immediate objective of the work carried out under this

contract was limited to the development of equipment for making

dynamic loading tests on reinforced concrete beams and to the rnaL~L~g

of preliminary and exploratory tests and analyseso

20 statement of Problem

The basic problem is the prediction of the reS~s~anCe and

behavior of reinforced concrete structures subjected to dynamic load­

ing as a result of air blast due to nuclear weaponso This requires

knowledge concerning the strength and deformation characteristics of

the individual structural members when subjected to dynamic loadingo

The dynamic characteristics of a member in a structure

depend on several different factors, some of which are discussed.

below 0

(a) One set of factors relate to the characteristics of

the loads induced in the individual members as a result of the

- 1 -

2

external loading applied to the structureo One important cbaracter~

istic is the load-time relationship. Moreover, the dynamic behavior

may depend also on the relative amounts of moment, shear J and axial

load induced in the members as well as on the distribution of the

forces along the length of the membero That is, the behavior of a

simple beam subjected to uniform load with a corresponding distribu­

tion of moment and shear along the span-may be different than that of

a beam loaded with a concentrated load or of a beam-column connectiono

Static tests have shown a significant difference in the static resist­

ance and deformation characteristics of members subjected to such

different loadings (References 1 and 2)0

(b) Another set of factors relate to the characteristics

of the individual members themselves. The variables which must be

considered in this connection are numerous and may have a fairly wide

range 0 Some of those expected to have a significant effect on

either the strength, deformation, or mode of failure of reinforced

concrete beams subjected to dynamic loads are: the properties of

the concrete and steel reinforcement, including strength of concrete J

yield and ultimate strength of steel, and stress-strain characteristics

of steel in the elastic region; and the amount and nature of the

tension, compreSSion, and shear or web reinforcemento

:5 e Method of Approach

Since the number of variables and their ranges are so great~

it seemed evident that any attempt to study their effects by a compre­

hensive empirical and experimental investigation would require an

3

inordinately large number of tests and a correspondingly great length

of timeo Furthermore, unless such an investigation were extended to

include simulated service testing of typical structures, there would

still remain a conside"rable uncertainty regarding the application of

the results to the prediction of the behavior of actual structureso

It was believed, therefore, that a purely empirical approach held no

promise and that this problem should be "attacked by more fundamental

studies, aimed at a more complete understanding of the manner in

which a member or structure provides resistance to load and deforma­

tion under dynamic loading and the relation of this resistance to

the properties of the members and the materials or to their known

behavior under static loading.

It was proposed, therefore, that the problem be attacked

in stages and that the phenomena investigated and observed in each

stage should be interpreted and understood or explained fully before

proceeding to the next stageo

40 Scope

The scope of the work covered by this report included~

(a) The modifications to the available impulsive-loading

e~uipment necessary to carry out the proposed tests.

(b) The deSign, fabrication, and checking of the addition­

al e~uipment needed for the testso

(c) The deSign, fabrication, and testing of a limited

number of beams re~uired for checking the test setup and for develop­

ing techniques ..

4

(d) The making of preliminary and exploratory analyses to

predict the effects of changes in some of the most important vari­

ables affecting the behavior of beams under dynamic loading 0

The equipment available at the start of this project

consisted of the impulse-loading device, a frame to support it and

absorb the reaction from it, and the components of the pressurizing

system used with ito It was necessary to make a framework of lO-in.

I-beams to transmit the reactions of a beam specimen to the support­

ing frameo Also required were a special tip for the loading piston

and matching cap for the beam to transmit the load to the beam.

Supports for the beam specimens were re~uired that would

allow the measurement of the reacticns downward and upward and would

constitute a simple support conditione The supports, therefore, had

to be able to rotate, move horizontally, prevent the beam from

uplifting, while simultaneously measuring the reaction and any tendency

to uplifto Reaction-measuring supports which meet these requirements

have been designed and fabricated and subjected to extensive checking 0

Other new equipment that was required consisted of deflection gages,

a dummy gage box, switch boxes, electric cable, etco

A preliminary test program was designed consisting of beams

with four different cross-sectional characteristicso Five beams of

one type have been cast, of wtrich two have been tested statically.

These tests served to check the operation of the equipment and to

establish the static properties of beams later to be tested dynamicallyo

The ILLIAC, the automatic digital computer at the Univer­

sity of Illinois, has been used to solve the problem of the response

of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDF) system of known characteristics

to a given impulsive loado The response has been determined for 104

combinations of beam and load characteristicso

IIo EQUIPME1'T AND INSTRl~TATION

The equipment and instrumentation necessary to apply load

and record the behavior of the test specimen are as important a part

of the test setup as the specimen itselfo That this equipment

should be reliable ~~d consistent in its behavior is a prime necessity

for the success of the test prograIDo That the equipment and instrumen­

tation necessary for a dynamic test are infinitely more complicated

than. the equipment for the static testing of comparable specimens

is perhaps not so obvious, but this fact will be attested to in the

following discussiono

The apparatus is designed to apply and record load, and to

record reactions, deflections at five points along the span, accelera­

tion at midspan, strains in the tension and compression reinforcement

and in the concrete.~ all as a function of time 0 It is believed that

all of these measurements are necessary for the complete definition

of the behavior of a test specimen l~der dynamic loading and to

provide adequate bases for comparison with tests of similar specimens

under static loadingo

70 Loading Equipment

The description to follow is taken primarily from Reference

The loading device consists of several basic sections: the

pneumatic loading unit which is the basic loading device, the

pressurizing system, the sequence control system for the automatic

control of the loading and ur~oading processes, and the basic test

frame 0

Pneumatic Loading Unit The pneumatic loading unit, a

11

section of which is shown in Figo IJ consists of three functional

systems~ the main loading system, the loading and unloading system,

a.nd the trigger systemo The main loading system consists of the

main cylinder, the storage cylinder, the main piston, and the main

shaft 0 The load is supplied by compressed gas acting on one face

of the main pistono

Before a dynamic test, equal forces are applied to both

faces of the main piston by the introduction of compressed gas into

the chambers on either side of the piston face, and pressures in the

two compartments are adjusted so that no load is applied to the speci­

men through the main shafto At a preset time of loading, the gas on

one face of the piston is permitted to escape and the piston is

loaded by the pressure of the remaining' gaso The unloading process

involves the release of the gas which has been acting on the piston

during the loading processQ

The loading and unloading system and the trigger system

act together to control the application and removal of the load by

allowing the escape of gas from the appropriate chamberso The loading

and unloading systems are identical and consist of the slide valve

cylinder, the slide valve, the slide valve rods, and the auxiliary

cylinders and pistonso The slide valve cylinder is essentially an

12

extension of the main cylinder or storage chamber 0 The orifices of

this cylinder are covered by the slide valve which confines the gas

in the chamber 0 The slide valve is connected to the auxiliary lift

system and the trigger assembly by the slide valve rodso The auxi­

liary lift system, composed of two cylinders and two pistons for each

slide valve, provides the force re~uired to move the slide valve away

from the orifices at the desired timeso - By using the auxiliary lift

system the force opening the orifice can be controlled independently

of the gas pressure applied to the maLl piston.

When the orifices are closed, the motion of the slide

valve is prevented by the trigger assemblyo This system consists of

the slide valve restraining link assembly, the trigger piston assembly,

the trigger, the solenoid, and the trigger frame. This system is

shown in Figo 2 along with the auxiliary lift assemblyo The slide

valve restraining link assembly is locked into position by the

trigger and the loads from the slide valve rods are transferred

directly to the frameo To start loading or unloading, the solenoid

of the trigger is energized and the trigger releasede The slide

valve restraining link assembly is pushed aside by the trigger

pistons and the slide valve rods are free to move under the force

applied to the auxiliary pistons 0 As the slide valVe clears the

orifices, the loading or unloading process starts and proceeds at a

rate determined by the volume of gas confined in the chamber, the

area of the orifices and the type of gas confined in the chambero

The rate of application of the load is nearly independent of the

13

pressure of the gas confined in the chamber. After a dynamic test

it is necessary to prepare the pneumatic unit for further use by

mo'ving the slide valves back over the orifices. This is accomplished

with a small hydraulic jack acting between the trigger frame and the

ends of the slide valve rodso

Pressurizing System -- The pressurizing system consists of

the bottled gas supply and manifold} th~ control panel} and the neces­

sary tubingo The manifold permits gas from any bottle to be directed

to any supply valve on the control boardo It contains pressure reduc­

ing valves so that the tubing in the system is not subjected to the

full pressure of the bottled supplyo The board was originally set up

to handle two different gases through four supply valves, but at

present is used only for nitrogen supplied through two of the valveso

Figure 3 is a photograph of the control panel. Figure 4 is a

schematic representation and illustrates the extreme flexibility of

the systemo Gas from any supply line can be directed into any chamber

through the line interlock valves, and future expansion of the system

is provided for by the panel interlock valveso

As an example of the use of the panel in a dynamic test,

with lines 1 and 3 as the supply lines, one starts with all line

bleeder valves open and all other valves closedo One must also take

the precaution that the slide valves are covering the orifices and

that the triggers on the auxiliary systems for moving the slide valves

are seto Pressure gage line valves 1 and 4 are opened so the pressure

in the auxiliary systems will be indicated on gages 1 and 4. Line

14

bleeder valves 1 and 4 are closed, and supply valve 1, line interlock

valve 1-4, and line valves 1 and 4 are opened to bleed pressure into

the auxiliary systems of the amount necessary to operate those

systems, approximately 350 psio If leaks occur, the pressure redUCing

valve on the manifold line to supply valve 1 can be adjusted to main­

tain the desired pressure in the auxiliary systemso

Next, line bleeder valves 2 and 3 are closedo Pressure

gage line valves 2 and 3 are opened so the pressure in the loading

chambers will be indicated on gages 2 and 30 Supply valve 3 and panel

interlock valve 2-3 are opened. Now~ line valves 2 and 3 are slowly

opened and continually adjusted so that there is no net force on the

main pistono The test supervisor, monitoring the load with dynamometer

Noo 2, maintains contact with the operator of the control panel by

telephone and directs whether the pressure above or below the piston

has to be increasedo Due to the fact that the main shaft comes off

the bottom face of the piston and the area of the bottom face is

thereby reduced, the pressure required in the bottom chamber to main­

tain equilibrium is greater than that required in the top chamber by a

factor of 1.118. However, the face of gage 3 has been re-marked to

indicate a pressure only 00894 times the actual pressure so that if

the indicated pressures on the face of gages 2 and 3 are kept the same

the net force on the piston will be clOSe to zeroo

When the pressure in the top chamber has reached the desired

amount, determined by the desired magnitude of load, line valves 2 and

3 are closedo The test should then be made as soon as possible since

15

temperature variations cause fluctuations in the pressures and

resultant force on the piston 0 In a test, the sequence control unit

first trips the trigger on the bottom auxiliary system allowing the

slide valve rods t.o move and gas escapes from the bottom auxiliary

system and the bottom ma.in chamber, applying loado Gages 3 and 4

now read zeroo The sequence control unit then trips the trigger

on the top auxiliary system and gas esqapes from it and the top main

chamberJ and the load is releasedo Now all gages read zeroo To

bleed the supply lines after the test~ the valve on the gas bottle

being used is closed and panel interlock valves 1 and 3 are opened 0

Bleeder valves 1, 2J 3~ and 4 are also opened so no air will be

trapped or compressed in the system when the slide valves are moved

back over the orifices and the piston is raisedo

Sequence Control Unit -- The sequence control unit is a

Ten Channel Digital Time Delay Generator j Model 26llA, manufactured

by Electro-Pulse, Inco, Culver City, California 0 It generates ten

digitally related outputs which fire ten thyratrons at time intervals

selected by 40 front panel switcheso Each time interval requires

the setting of four switches p marked off in periods of 100 seco~

Dol secQ, 0001 seco, and 00001 seco J respectively. This permits the

selection of any interval from 00000 seco to 90999 seco in increments

of 00001 seco for any of the ten channelso All intervals are measured

from the same zero timeo

At present only four c:b..ann-els are being usedJ one to start

the recording instruments} one to trip the bottom trigger system, one

16

to trip the top trigger system, and one to stop the instrumentso

Generally, one second may be allowed to elapse between the starting

of the instruments and the tripping of the bottom trigger. The time

between trippings of the triggers depends on the desired duration of

load. Another second may then be allowed to elapse between the time

zero load is reached and the instruments are stoppedo

As an example, if it were desired to apply a load whose

maximum magnitude was to be maintained --for 100 milliseconds, channel 1

would be set for 1.000 seco, channel 2 for 20000 seco, charillel 3 for

2oll0 seco allowing 0.045 sec. for the trigger to act and the load to

rise to maximum magnitude, and cb~nnel 4 for 3.155 seco allowing

0.045 seco for the trigger to act and for the decay of the loado The

unit is accurate to 0.001 sec.

Test Frame -- The supporting frame for the loading device

consists of two A-frames bolted to a rectangular horizontal base

frame which in turn is bolted to the floor 0 There is a platform which

provides accessibility to the loading device and there are numerous

small members to which deflection gages and other minor items of

I

equipment can be boltedo The frame can be seen in Figso 6a and 6bo

General Characteristics -- The use of this loading

machine and its auxiliary equipment permits the application of a

loading pulse that may begin from a "static r1 level ranging from

60 kips tension to 60 kips cOLllllression, undergo a rapid change of

plus or minus 60 kips maximum with the restriction that the prepulse

load plus the dynamic change in load cannot exceed the limits of' plus

or minus 60 kips, and thenreturn rapidly to zero load 0 The duration

17

of the maximum load may be varied from a few milliseconds to many

hours. The loss in compressive loading with the full 18-ino travel

of the piston is approximately 25 per cent of the maximum loado

The rise and decay times of the loading pulse are only

slightly controllable. The minimum time for either rise or decay of

the load is slightly less than 10 milliseconds. It is possible to

change the time re~uired for load application and release using

different gases (helium or nitrogen) in the loading chamberso In

machines of this type, control of the rise and decay times of the

load pulse can be accomplished by changing the areas of the ports on

the slide valve cylinders. However, no provision was made for such

. control on this unito Loads can be applied or released in the rela­

tively slow time of two minutes or longer by manual control of the

valves in the pressure supply systemo

Figure 5 is a typical oscillogram of a loading pulse

produced using nitrogen in the main cylinder of the machineo The

period of the timing trace is two milliseconds per cycle and the

magnitude of the peak load is about 35 kips.

8. Measuring Equipment

The various pieces of e~uipment used for measuring load,

reaction, deflection, strain, and acceleration are described below.

Load -- The load applied to the beam specimen is measured

by dynamometers Noo 1 and/or 2. During a calibration test, the reac­

tion dynamometers and dynamometer Noo 1 are calibrated against dyna­

mometer Noo 2 which has previously been calibrated in a hydraulic

18

testing machine. Dynamometer Noo 2 is read with a static strain

indicator while the signals from Noo 1 and the reaction dynamometers

are recorded on an oscillographo In a static testJ the load is

monitored with Noo 2 to keep the test operator aware of the progress

of the test; however, the load is recorded by Noo 1 on an oscillographo

In a dynamic test, the load is again recorded by Noo 1 on an oscillo­

graph while Noo 2 is used to determine the preload on the beam due to

unbalanced pressures in the main chambers of the loading device before

testingo Number 2 can also be used to determine the magnitude of the

peak load if the duration is long enough to permit manual reading of

the indicator connected to Noo 2.

The dynamometers are made of hollow circular steel cylinders

with enlarged threaded ends and are cOPJlected to the threaded main

shaft and to each other by large hexagonal nutso They are visible in

Figo 6ao Dynamometer Noo 2 is placed above Noo 1. Number 1 has

eight SR-4 Type AD-7 strain gages mounted on its outer surface in a

symmetrical alternating patterno Four of the gages are parallel to

the axis of the cylinder and four are circumferentialo The parallel

gages are termed vertical and the circumferential ones horizontalo A

Wheatstone bridge circuit is formed with two horizontal or two vertical

gages in each of the four legs (See Figo 7)0 This arrangement eliminates

the effect of eccentric loading, if present, and multiplies the average

strain output of the vertical legs by approximately 2060 Dynamometer

Noo 2 has four SR-4 Type AD-7 strain gages mounted on its outer surface

in an alternating patterno Two of the gages are parallel to the axis

of the cylinder and two are circumferential. Again, the parallel

gages are termed vertical and the circumferential ones horizontal.

19

A Wheatstone bridge circuit is formed from the four gages with the

vertical gages in opposite legs (See Fig. 7). This arrangement also

eliminates the effect of eccentric loading and results in a signal

output from the bridge equal to 2.6 times the average of the vertical

gages.

Reaction -- The reactions at each end of a beam specimen

are measured in terms of the straL~ in dynamometers built into the

roller support assemblies. The entire assembly is visible in Fig. 8.

These dynamometers each consist of three hollow aluminum cylinders

with enlarged ends firmly attached at each end to 2-in. thick steel

plates. Four SR-4 Type A-7 strain gages are mounted in a symmetrical

pattern on the outside of each cylinder, two parallel to the axis of

the cylinder and two c'ircumferential ~ . The section of the cylinders v.lhere

strains are measured has an outside diameter of 1.3 in. and an inside

diameter 0.9 in. The three cylinders are arranged symmetrically

around the center points of the end plates to which they are attached

(Fig. 9). One Wheatstone bridge circuit is made up from all twelve

gages in each cylinder group. Each leg of the bridge contains a gage

from each cylinder, arranged as shown in Fig. 9 •. This arrangement

eliminates the effect of any eccentricity of load and results in a

signal output from the bridge equal to 2.6 times the average of the

vertical gages. These dynamometer groups have been proof tested

statically under an axial load of 40 kips compression and 20 kips

20

tension and under a compression load of 15 kips wi-~h 005 ina eccentri­

city a For each dynamometer, the tension and compression responses are

practically identical and the difference in response under eccentric

loading is negligible.,

Gripping devices were made to permit the dnamometers to

be tested statically in tension and shear simul taneoL31y in the ratio

corresponding to the large end rotations experienced by the beam speci­

men in the final stages of a test (See Figo 10) 0 Tt.e shear experienced

by the dynamometers in a test equals the vertical reaction times the

sine of the angle of end rotation of the beam. sincE: the axes of the

dynamometers always remain perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of

the beam., This ar..gle of rotation may be as great as 9 degrees 0 The

results for this test indicate that the difference in response between

the two types of loading, axial tension and combined tension and shearJ

is never more than a strain equivalent to approximately 13C Ibo At

15 kips, the difference is less than one per cent 0

Calibration of Load ~nd Reaction Dynamometers -- In order

to insure that mechanical and electrical conditions during calibration

of the load and reaction dynamometers were the same as during a test,

the following procedure was followed for calibrating these deviceso

Dynamometer Noo 2 was placed in a l20,OOO-lbo capacity Baldwin 'Univers­

al Testing Machine and a curve was obtained of axial cc.:rrpressi ve load

vSo strain bridge output as read with an SR-4 indicato}"o All leads

and connections were such that they could be duplicate·i exactly latera

This dynamometer was then attached to the main shaft of the impulse

loading machine and dynamometer No 0 1 was attached below No 0 2. A

steel beam, strong enough to be strained only within its elastic

range under the capacity of the machine, was then placed under the

main shaft and attached dynamometers and supported on the reaction

measuring supportso Load, monitored by dynamometer Noo 2 and read

with an SR-4 indicator, was slowly applied to the beam in distinct

increments by gradually bleeding gas into the loading machineo

Simultaneously, the signals from dynamometer Noo 1 and the reaction

dynamometers were recorded on film by the oscillographs later to be

used in the dynamic testso The wiring between dynamometers and the

recording oscillographs was exactly the same as that used in the

21

beam testso Along with the signals due to actual load, those signals

resulting from placing shunt resistors across a vertical gage leg of

the Wheatstone bridge in each measuring device in turn were also

recorded 0 It was then possible to obtain equivalent load and reaction

values for each of the resistors, later to be used in establishing

the scale of the records obtained during a testo These resistors will

be switched into each circuit to be calibrated and their effect

recorded at the beginning of each testo Any reactive unbalance due

to long leads in any particular bridge was always taken out with a

variable capacitance in the appropriate leg of the bridge before

calibrating or testingo See Figo II for the circuit dia~L-am for the

load and reaction dynamometerso

Deflection -- Deflection of the beam specimens is measured

at five points along the span by slide-wire deflection gageso Fi~~e 12

22

is a drawing of a gage which consists of a piece of nickel-chromium

(nichrome) alloy wire approximately 22 in. long stretched in a steel

frame. The frame is mounted rigidly to the testing machine frame in

such a manner that the wire is in a vertical position. During a test,

the wire is traversed by a slide which is connected to the beam at

mid-height 0 The slide is a piece of steel tubing approximately 22 ino

long with a composition fiber block at one end and a ball and socket

joint at the othero The fiber block contains the sliding contact

which is a thin strip of brass tipped with silvero The ball and

socket joint has a threaded bolt on the ball side of the joint which

is fastened to an aluminum bracket with two nutso The brackets are

made of a T-shaped section, the head of the T being glued to the

side of the beam and the leg having a hole to accommodate the threaded

extension of the slide jointo The slide is guided in its downward

travel by two rods mounted on the gage frame over which the fiber

block fitso Maximum possible travel is 18 in.

Electrical leads come from each deflection gage at three

points; from each end of the wire and from the contacto These leads

go to the deflection resistance boards, which contain a separate set

of calibrating resistances for each gageo The resistances are leD~ths

of the same type of wire as that used in the gagee Knife switches on

the boards serve to introduce greater or lesser lengths of this wire

into the circuit as re~uiredo Figure 13 is the circuit diagram for

the deflection gage systemo

23

It can be seen in Figo 13 that the calibrating resistances

are used to change the relative lengths of two adjacent arms of the

deflection bridges, the other two arms being made of the deflection

gage wire itself as divided by the sliding contacto The lengths of

wire are calibrated in terms of e~uivalent deflection by throwing

the switches one by one and comparing the signal produced on the

oscillograph with that produced by moving the sliding contact on each

gage a predetermined distance. Before a test, those switches for

each gage necessary to give a trace deflection which just encompasses

the range of the expected deflection of that gage are closed and thus

establish the scale of the trace from that gage. It will be noticed

from Figo 13 that one switch for each gage must be closed during a

test or the circuits are incompleteo The switch that is left closed

for a particular gage is the one corresponding to somewhat more than

the greatest expected deflection for that gageo

Strain -- Strains in the tension and compression reinforce­

ment are measured with SR-4 Type A-7 gageso Strains in the concrete

on the top surface of the beam are measured with SR-4 Type A-I gageso

Each strain gage is part of an individual Wheatstone bridge circuit

together with three dummy gages of the same typeo For twelve strain

readings, 36 dummy gages are re~uiredo The strain bridge circuits

are very similar to those for the reaction and load dynamometerso

One difference is that there are no condensors in the concrete strain

circuits because the signals from these bridges are recorded on

cathode-ray oscilloscopes utilizing direct current and therefore there

24

is no problem of unbalanced reactance. The circuits for the strain

bridges are shown in Figo 140 The standard calibration resistances

for the strain bridges are the same as those used for the load and

reaction bridges, except that their equivalent values are now

expressed in strain units of microinches per incho These equivalent

values were obtained by shunting the resistors across actual gage

installations on a beam and noting the equivalent strain on an SR-4

indicator. All leads, connections, and switching units were as

nearly as practical the same as those used in a testo As with the

load and reaction bridges, any reactive unbalance due to long leads

is always taken out with a variable capacitance in the appropriate

leg of the bridge before calibrating or testing, except for the

concrete strain bridges as explaLned aboveo Again, these resistors

are switched into each bridge circuit to be calibrated and their

effect recorded at the beginning of each testo

Acceleration Acceleration of the midspan of the beam

under an impulsive load is measured with a Hathaway Type AMS-20A

Electric Accelerometer Head. It can measure accelerations up to

500 go It is mounted on the beam cap during a test and can be seen

in Fig. l8~

A set of calibrating resistances has been prepared for use

with the accelerometero The accelerometer was mounted on a counter­

balanced revolving shaft and spun at several different speeds, for

which the corresponding acceleration could be computed, and the

signal output was recorded on an oscillographo calibrating

resistances were then switched in and out of the circuit and the

effect on the signal from the stationary accelerometer recordedo

This provided a measure of the equivalent acceleration of each

resistance for use later in establishing the scale of acceleration

records from a teste The Signal from the accelerometer is one of

changing inductance and must be shifted 90 degrees in phase to be

recorded as changing resistance by an oscillographo Figure 15 is

a schematic drawing of the accelerometer circuito

90 Recording Equipment

The various pieces of equipment used to record the

signals from the measuring devices are described in this sectiono

The Signals from the load, reaction, and steel strain

bridges and from the accelerometer are recorded on film with

Hathaway 8-14 magnetic oscillographs operating with a MRC-18

carrier amplifying system. This system is essentially flat in

response up to 450 cycles per second. The timing trace is marked

25

on the records of these oscillographs with a timing trace generator

employing brass plugs on a rotating disko As the disk rotates, each

plug makes contact with feeler wires, and selected resistances in

the time trace channels of the oscillographs are switched in and out

causing a jump in the trace at regular intervalso

The signals from the deflection gages are recorded with

Hathaway 8-14 OC 2 Group 23 galvanometers, also with a flat response

up to 450 CpSo The time trace is established by the same instrument

as above (See Figo 16)0

26

The signals from the concrete gages are detected on two

DuMont TYPe 333 Dual Beam Cathode-Ray Oscillographs. A mirror device

is used to superimpose the separate images from the two instruments,

mounted one on top of the other, and permits all four traces to be

recorded with one camera, a DuMont Oscillograph-Record camera Type

321-A (See Figo 17)0 The timing signal is generated with a Hewlett-

Packard 200C audio oscillator checked against a Potter Model 830

frequency counter and Z-axis modulation is employed to affect the

brightness of one of the traces periodically and thus establish the

-time intervals. The DuMont camera employs 35 mID. film. After devel-

oping, the record is enlarged before the data is taken offo

There is a gang switch through which the time trace

circuit of the Hathaway equipment and the circuit of a lamp inside

the DuMont camera both passo The light from the camera lamp makes

a continuous mark on the camera film except when the gang switch is

opened 0 This switch, therefore, provides a means of tying together,

with respect to time, the records from the two sets of equipmento

10. Miscellaneous Equipment

Among the various pieces of mechanical and electrical

equipment used on this project are several small pieces which are

indispensable to the smooth performance of a beam test but do not

merit detailed discussiono These include the main shaft tip and

beam cap combination, illustrated in Figo 18, which transmits the

load to the beam and permits the midspan of the beam to rotate

without bending the main loading rod. Also included are the banks

27

of standard resistances, a lOO-point switch box, a dummy gage box

which contains the gages necessary to complete the strain gage

bridge circuits, and aluminum transition boxes which permit the

rapid connection of cables and leads in the various circuitso These

items are illustrated in Figo 19.

28

IIIo DESCRIPrION OF TEST SPECIMENS

The specimens proposed for testing were reinforced concrete

beams 6 by 12 inc in cross-section with a 9-fto span to be loaded at

midspan 0 The beams were cast 10 ft. long with a 6 by 12 in. column

stub at midspan to transmit the loado They were reinforced in

tension, compression, and shearo The cross-section dimensions were

chosen to duplicate those of beams previously tested statically on

another projecto

Five of these beams have been cast of which two have been

tested staticallyo Table 1 contains the values of the percentage of

tension, compression, and shear reinforcement, yield strengths,

concrete strengths and age at testing of the two beams tested with

some of these values for the other three beams that have been casto

Details of the beam configuration, stirrup spacing, and steel arrange­

ment are illustrated in Figo 200

II 0 Materials

Information concerning the properties of the materials

constituting a specimen is of prime importance in an experimental

investigation 0 The materials used in this investigation are described

below:

Cement -- Marquette Type 1 Cement was used in all beams.

The cement was purchased in paper bags from a local dealer and stored

under proper conditions.

29

Aggregate -- Wabash Riv~r sand and gravel were used for

all beams. The coarse aggregate had a maximum size of about 1 ino and

a fineness modulus of 605 to 7 and contained a rather high percentage

of fines. The fineness modulus of the sand varied between 300 and 3.2.

Both aggregates passed the usual specification testso The absorption

was about one per cent by weight of the surface-dry aggregateo The

aggregate was purchased from a local dealero

Concrete Mix The mixes used L~ the five beams cast so

far are listed in Table 20 Strengths are reported only for the two

mixes used in the beams that have been tested.

Reinforcing Steel -- All reinforcing steel was intermediate

grade Inland Hi-Bond deformed barso The bars were received in 24-fto

lengths and a 2-ft. coupon was cut from the end of each bar and tested

before the bars were cut and placed in the beams. The bars used in

each beam could thus be matched on the basis of their yield strengthso

The values of the important characteristics for the bars used in the

five beams already cast are listed in the table of reinforcement

properties, Table 3e These quantities are defined in Figo 21.

120 Attachment of Strain Gages to Reinforcing Steel

The first step in the fabrication of a test beam is the

preparation of the reinforcing bars for the attachment of SR-4 strain

gages 0 The location of the gages is determined and the mill scale is

brushed off for a distance of several inches each side of this location.

The lugs on the bar are ground off for a length of about 1-1/2 ino at

each gage locationo The longitudinal rib and parts of the transverse

30

lugs are ground only enough to provide a smooth surface just slightly

wider than the gageo The gages used on the reinforcement are Type A-7

with a gage length of 1/4 ino and an overall width of 5/16 ino The

ground area is then filed and sanded with No 0 120 sandpaper 0 The

gages are mounted and allowed to dryo Drying is accelerated by the

use of infra-red heat lamps. After drying, the gages are covered with

electrical tape and the leads are soldered to them 0 The bars are

then heated and entirely covered L~ the vicinity of the gages with

Petrolastic, an asphaltic waterproofing compound.. This waterproofing

procedure destroys the bond between the steel and the concrete over

a distance of about 2-1/2 in.. at each gage locationo The bars are

immersed in water overnight and the gages are then checked for leakage

resistance 0 Gages with less leakage resistance than 10,000 megohms

are replaced 0 (This, however, is no guarantee against loss of gages

due to mechanical damage during castingc) The bars are then assembled

into a reinforcement cage and placed in the form (See FigG 22)0

130 Casting and Curing of Beams

All beams were cast right side up in a steel form with a

movable side plate to facilitate their removal. The reinforcing cage

was held in position by three chairs made of 1/4-ino mild steel bars.

Two hooks of 1/4-ino mild steel bars were embedded in the top of the

beams near the ends to facilitate handling 0

All concrete was mixed from three to eight minutes in a non­

tilting drum-type mixer of 6-cu. fto capacity 0 Each beam was cast

from two batches of concrete of approximately the same proportions.

31

The first batch was placed along the bottom of the beam and the second

batch was evenly distributed over ito Four 6 by 12-ino control

cylinders and one 6 by 20-ino flexure beam were cast from each batcho

The concrete was placed in the forms and cylinder molds with the aid

of a high-frequency internal vibrator.

Several hours after casting, the top surface of the beam

was troweled smooth and all cylinders capped with neat cement pastee

r.~'he beams were removed from the forms the day after they were cast

ard the beams and control cylinders stored under moist conditions for

ar: additional six days. They were then stored in the air of the labor­

at(l.~y until tested.

32

IV 0 TESTS OF BEAMS

It was considered desirable to make 2-n initial static test

on a beam similar in properties to the beams to be tested dynamicallyo

Such a test would afford an opportunity to che:.:k all eCluipment and

instrumentation for correct operation at a loading rate slow enough

to permit human detection of faulty behavior a.LJ.d w)uld also provide

a basis for the comparison of behavior under stat~i..c and dynamic condi­

tions of loading as well as a comparison with the static tests made

previously (Reference No. 2)0

140 Beam Preparation

The preparation of the beam for testing is the same whe 1 her

the test is to be made dynamically (load duration lO-IOO millisecolds)

or statically (load gradually applied clVer a period of 2 to 3 mir.ltes)o

The beam is marked to indicate the pOEitions of the SR-4 gages for

measilTing concrete strains, the defleetion targets, and the re3.ctions 0

Shortly before the initial set of the concrete occurred7 the top

surface of the beam had been struck smooth ;Jith a finishing trowel.

When this surface is later ground and polished with a porta.ble

grinder;! it is suitable for mounting SR-4 gages.. Only th:.! sro.all area

necessary for the gage is ground 0 A thin layer of' Duco ':.'ement is

applied and allowed to dry before placing the gages.. The gages are

then attached with Duco Cement and light weights are ple.ced on the

felt-covered gages while the cement dries. Heat is not used to

hasten the drying since it could be detrimental to the concreteo To

33

protect the gages, a coating of wax is applied after the cement is

thoroughly dryo The leakage resistance provided with this procedure

is generally greater than 50 megohms.

The deflection brackets are also attached with Duco Cement.

Though the brackets have come loose during a test, there is evidence

that they remained in place until after the max~ resistance of the

beams was exceeded and that it was the jar of the beam hitting bottom

that tore them loose.

After the beam is placed under the piston of the loading

deVice, the reaction measuring supports are moved to the correct

pOSitions under the beam and the beam is lowered and clamped to themo

The slide rods of the deflection gages are then connected to the

deflection brackets and the electrical leads fer the SR-4 gages are

soldered to the gageso Next, all the electrical connections required

for recording and calibrating the various measuring devices are made J

the load transferring cap is placed on the beam, and the beam is

ready for testingo For a dynamic testJ an accelerometer is mounted

on the load transferring capo A beam ready for testing is shown in

Fig~ 230

The location of the strain gages and deflection brackets

for the tests of Beams I-a and I-b are shown in Figso 24 and 25.

150 Test Procedure

up to the point of actually applying the load, the test

procedure used for testing a beam statically is the same as that

which will be used to test beams dynamically~ The zero value of each

measuring device is read with an SR-4 indicator by disconnecting from

the transition box the proper cable leading to the instrument room

and plugging in the indicator in its placeo After the zero readir~s

are taken, all of the cables are replacedo The natural frequency of

vibration of the specimen is determined by hitting the stub vertically

with a sledge hammer and recording the effect on the reaction dynamo­

metersc In the future an attempt will be made to record also the

effect on the strain gages and accelerometero Next the main shaft of

the loading device is brought down against the beam and the beam is

again struck with a hammero So far no record has been obtained from

this procedure because of the great amount of damping introduced by

the pistono An attempt will be made to remedy this by increasing the

gain of the amplifiers in the strain bridge circuitso

The calibrating traces for each measuring device are then

put on the records according to the procedures for calibrating

described in the section on equipment and instrumentation 0 The gain

o~ each amplifier is first set so that the calibrating step repre­

senting the greatest trace deflection--which in turn represents a

value of strain~ load, acceleration, or deflection greater than that

expected in the test--will remain on the recordo From this point on

the procedures for static and dynamic testing differo

In a static test, the load is monitored with an SR=4 indi=

cat~r connected to dynamometer Noo 2 while gas is gradually bled into

the chamber above the main pistono At several times during the

progress of the test a switch is thrown which simulta~eously marks

all of the recordso For each such mark, the time from the beginning

35

of the test is noted as well as the strain in dynamometer Noo 2 and

the pressure in the loading devicec This procedure ties all of the

records together and provides a check on the load. Once loading

has been started, it is not stopped until the maximum resistance of

the beam has been overcome and its downward travel is stopped by

wooden blocks placed under the midspan of the beam to prevent the

loading piston from travelling too far 0 __ After the beam has hit

bottom, the pressure is bled off the piston and the piston is raised

wi tb a hydraulic jack" The zero value of each measuring device is

read again except for those gages which may have been destroyed in

the testo

In a dynamic test, after the calibration traces have been

put on the records pressure is bled into the auxiliary chambers to

activate the slide valves when the triggers are trippedo Then

pressure is applied to both faces of the loading piston at the same

time, care being taken to keep the forces balanced by monitoring the

procedure with an SR-4 indicator connected to dynamometer No. 20

When the pressure in the top chamber has reached the desired amount,

determined from the area of the piston face (78.54 sqo in.) and the

desired value of maximum load, the inlet valves to the loading

chambers are closedo Next the timing intervals are set on the

sequence control timer and this unit is turned OUo It starts the

records, trips the trigger on the bottom of the loading unit allowing

the gas below the piston to escape and the gas above the piston to

apply the loado After the interval of time preset on the timing unit

36

has elapsed, it trips the top trigger on the loading unit allowing

the gas above the piston to escape and the load drops offo Then the

records are stoppedo

160 Test Results

The results of the static tests of Beams I-a and I-b are

presented in the form of curves, tables, and photographso The photo­

graphs in Figo 26 show both sides of Beam I-a after testingo The

cracks were marked with ink for greater contraste Note the buckling

of the compression reinforcement at the edge of the column stub.

Figure 27 shows views of both sides of Beam l-b after testingo Again,

the buckling of the compression steel at the edge of the stub is

apparent 0

When the records of the test of Beam I-a were examined it

was discovered that the load trace went off the oscillograph record

in the direction opposite to that in which dynamometer No.1 had been

calibrated 0 This was due to a mistake in the connection of the leads

from the dynamometer and prompted the writing of a connection instruc­

tion sheet to be followed in all subsequent tests. Due to the lack

of a continuous load recordJ the summation of the reactions has been

taken as a measure of the loado Figure 28 is a graph of the summation

of the vertical reactions versus time for Beam l-ao The loading rate

is seen to be quite constant at approximately 13 kips per minuteo To

illustrate the reliability of the reaction values as a measure of

load~ the load determined from dynamometer Noo 2 with an SR-4 indicator

at four stages in the test is plotted as open points on Figo 280

37

The maximum applied load sustained by Beam I-a was 30 kips, in addi­

tion to the weight of the beam itselfc

Examination of the records revealed that there was also no

record of deflections because of faulty attachmentof the film magazine

on the oscillograph. Thus it was impossible to plot a load-deflection

curve or strain-deflection curves for Beam l-ac

Figures 29, 30, and 31 are graphs of the summation of the

reactions versus the strain in the tension reinforcement} the compres­

sion reinforcement, and the top surface of the concrete, respectively 0

Yielding of the tension reinforcement south of the stub evidently

occurred at a load of 2302 kips and north of the stub at 2302 to 2306

kips 0 The compression steel south of the stub appears to have

sustained some tension at first before being subject to compression,

and yielded at approximately 28 kipso The compression steel north of

the stub yielded at approximately 2404 kipso Gages SO and SP, north

of the stub, were located at the position of maximum sidew'ise buckling

deflection of the compression steel. From Fig. 31, it appears that

crushing of the compression concrete began simultaneously on both Bides

of the stubo After yielding of the steel and crushing of the concrete,

the strain gage signals are rather meaningless, since lead wires were

undoubtedly broken and many gages were completely destroyedo The

gages located in the area of maximum destruction of the concrete were

CA, CB, SA, SB J SO, and SPo

The natural period of vibration of Beam I-a determined as

described in Section 15 was 18 millisecondso

The values of strain at which the gages indicate yielding

took place in the tension steel do not agree with the yield strain

determined from coupon tests of these bars (See Table 3)a This pheno­

menon has not yet been satisfactorily explained and may re~uire

extensive checking of the equipment and computationso

Since a complete set of records was not obtained for

Beam I-a, a second beam was tested staticallyo Beam l-b was similar

in all respects to Beam l-a except for a slight difference in concrete

strength; a span reduced by 2 ino from 108 in. to 106 ino, to provide

the end supports with more allowable horizontal movement; and a 2-ino

decrease, from 10 in. to 8 in., in the allowable vertical movement

of the beam at midspane The latter measures were taken to lessen the

chance of jamming of the supports against stops provided to protect

the e~uipment, and were ~uite effectiveo

Figure 32 includes curves of the load as registered by

dynamometer No.1, the reactions, and the sum of the reactions, all

plotted versus timec The open circles are values of load determined

with dynamometer Noo 2 and an SR-4 indicator at three distinct times

during the test~ The discrepancy between the load measured by dyna­

mometer No. 1 and either that measured by No. 2 or the sum of the

reactions has been the cause of some concern. Another project in the

laboratory which uses this same equipment has also had some difficulty

with the calibration of dynamometer Noo 1 and steps are being taken

to locate and correct the troublee It is felt that the sum of the

reactions or the values of load determined by dynamometer Noo 2 are

39

more reliable, The sum of the reactions will be used in the remaining

presentation of the results whenever load is indicatedc A loading

rate of approximately 15 kips per minute is indicated by Figo 320

Figure 33 is a graph of load versus strain in the tensile

reiilforcemento There is no curve for gage SA since considerable leak-

age in the gage developed after the beam was cast and its ber~vior

was not consistent~ Yielding of the tension steel on both sides of

the stub appears to have begun at 2205 to 2303 kips~ Gage SD,

farther from the stub than gages SB or se indicates that yielding

reached the section of bar where it was located at a somewhat higher

load j as might be expected 0 Again, the strain at yielding is higher

than that for the coupons cut from the bars later used in Beam I-bo

It is not felt that the rate of straining, approximately 20 x 10-6

inv/ino/sec~, could account for any raised yield strain or delayed

yield phenomena.

only to the dropping of the beam to the wooden stop at midspano The

v 0 ANALYSIS OF RESPONSE TO IMPULSE LOADING

18. General Considerations

The behavior of a reinforced concrete beam under static

loading is generally defined by its load-deflection characteristicso

The behavior of a reinforced concrete beam under impulsive loading is

generally defined by both its resistance-deflection cbaractersitics

and its response, that is, its deflection-time characteristicso As

with static behavior, knowledge of the effect of important variables

on the dynamic behavior is necessary before design procedures for

proportioning members to withstand impulsive loading can be formulatede

In the experimental phase of this program, the load acting on the

beam and the response of the beam will be measured as fu.~ctions of

time. From this information, and measurements of the acceleration

at midspan, the resistance, that is, the resistance-deflection

characteristiCS, can be determined.

A beam subjected to an impulsive lateral load is a vibrat­

ing system with an infinite number of degrees of freedom. Its

behavior is further complicated by the fact that there are regions

of both elastic and inelastic action. If the problem could be reduced

to that of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDF) system, the resulting

e~uations and analysis would be much Simpler. An attempt to analyze

the behavior of the test specimens as SDF systems, using correction

factors where necessary to bring the results of analysis in line with

results of tests, is therefore believed to be justifiedo If these

correction factors can be shown to vary in some consistent manner

43

with those variables cr combination of variables which would be kno'\lm

beforehand in a design problem, the analysis as a SDF system is entire-

ly valid. If, however, tID.S is not the case, the analysis as a mul tiple-

degree-of-freedom systen. ma~' be re~uiredo In one instance, that of the

determination of the rea(~tiOlt3 of the beam supports, it is known that

analysis as a SDF system Jielis erroneous results for the initial stages

of response of the simplY-SUPl0rted reinforced concrete beamo Multiple-

degree-of-freedom analysis wil~. almost surely be called for here 0

190 Single-Degree-of -Freedom ill lalysis

The relation govE.rnin S the instantaneous behavior of the

beam under an impulsive loading is

where

Q:::P-Ma

Q = the resistancE of the beam and is assumed to be a function )f t.le deflection only,

P the applied load an~ is a function of time,

a = the acceleration of the beam,

M = the masso

The above relation holds for each :pa.rt.Lcle of the bearno If the

beam is to be considered as a SDF SyStEO, then there must be only

one instantaneous value of Q, M, ane. a lnstead of a multitude

of values. It is most convenient to con~3ider the behavior of the

entire beam in terms of the behavior c,t midspan only, that is,

to consider the acceleration at rnidspa'l as a measure of the accel-

eration of the entire beam, the resistcDce-deflection relation

(1)

44

at midspan as a measure of the resistance-deflec~ion characteristics

of the entire beam, and to consider the mass of the beam concentrated

at midspan. This tlequivalent fl system must res:p:)nd in the same

manner as the midspan of the actual beam iThich is taken to be rep2:'e­

sentative of the entire beamo In other vords., the system concentrated

at midspan must exhibit the same behavicr as the midspan of the beam

for which the mass, acceleI"ations, and ':""esis':,ance are distributed

along the entire length of the beamo IJ.)O obtain this corresponden.ce,

the kinetic energy during vibration of the ',Jearn with a uniformly

distributed mass is equated to the ki·:.e tic energy of a beam with an

~J£nown mass concentrated at midspan (Reference 4)0 From this rela­

t=~on it can be shown that the mass to be::!oncentrated at midspan is

1/2 the mass of the beam, if it is to be ass~~ed that the shape of

the deflection curve during vibration i::: that of a sine curve;! which

is sufficiently accurate for the ·;last·c range of behavior. The

equivalent mass to be concentrated at midspan is a function of the

assumed deflection shape. If tte deflection curve in the inelastic

range is assumed to be triangular, ~" extreme assumption, then the

mass to be concentrated at mid.8pa.Il ~.3 1/3 the total nass of the beam.

Therefore, it can be expected that ~:.he equivalent mass will vary

d:rring a test from 1/2 to about lls the total mass (See Appendix B)o

Since deflections are 1,eing measured at five points along

the beam, it will be possible to :iraw a deflection curve ,for the

beam at any, time during the test., The equivalent mass to be used in

the analysis of a SDF system ma,' then be determined from energy

considerations. The velocity values needed for this determination

can be assumed either to vary along the length of the beam in the

same fashion as the deflection, or an attempt can be made to compute

velocities as the first derivative of the measured deflection-time

relationships by first differences.

Assuming for the present that the variation of equivalent

mass as a function of midspan deflection has been determined for a

beam, equation 1 can be uniquely solved for the quantity Q, the

resistance, at any given time, utilizing load and acceleration

measurements. The resistance-deflection characteristics of the beam

can then be determined using the resistance-time cp~racteristics as

computed above and the measured deflection-time characteristics 0

The method of determining response described in the previ­

ous paragraph requires the multiplication of measured midspan acceler­

ation by a computed equivalent mass determined from energy considera­

tions in order to obtain the inertia effectso If the assumption of

a SDF system is correct then this procedure is valid 0 If the assump­

tion is not correct, then some modified acceleration or equivalent

mass, determined from other criteria, should be used.

Another method for determining the response, which does

not require the use of measured accelerations, is Newmark's ~ Method

which involves successive approximationso It can handle a SDF system

with a changing equivalent mass or a system with several degrees of

freedom. Its use at present on this project is restricted to SDF

systems~ The method requires knowledge of the load and resistance

functions for the mass considered and yields the responseo On this

project, it will be used with assumed resistance functions to give

responses which can be compared with measured responses. The

assumed resistance function which results in the best match of

measured and computed responses can be considered as the resistance

function of the specimen (See Appendix C)o

46

The problem of determining the response of a SDF system

of known resistance characteristics and a constant mass to a given

impulsive load has been coded for the ILLIAC, the electronic digital

computer at the University of Illinoiso The code uses the Newmark ~

Method and re~uires knowledge of the resistance function of the

system, the load pulse, and the period of natural vibration of the

system in the range of elastic behavioro The code re~uires para­

meters and yields answers in a dimensiop~ess form; that is, loads in

terms of the yield capacity of the system, deflections in terms of

the yield deflection, and time in terms of the periodo It can handle

resistance and load functions of practically any shape, if they can

be approximated by a series of straight lineso

20. Problems Solved with ILLIAC

A total of 104 problems have been solved on the ILLIAC;

that is, the deflection vSo time response has been determined for 104

combinations of loading conditions and characteristics of a single­

degree-of-freedom systemo The nature of the resistance and load

functions assumed in the analysis are illustrated by Figo 380 The

resistance and load characteristics varied in these problems are

listed in Table 7 and are defined below~

Problems 1 to 30 were intended to represent four differ-

47

using helium in the loading cylindero Problems 31 to 47 were intend-

ed to represent the first two of the proposed beam specimens,

subjected to the same magnitudes of load as before, but with rise and

decay times characteristic of those obtained using nitrogen in the

loading cylindero Problems 48 to 95 were intended to represent the

first of the proposed beam specimens subjected to one magnitude of

48

load and three different durations but with beam characteristics

computed for various combinations of increased concrete strength

(from 1.1 to 1.6 times the static strength) and increased yield

strength of the reinforcing steel (from 1.1 to 103 times the static

strength). Problems 501 to 509 were intended to represent the first

of the proposed specimens subjected to one magnitude of load and

three different durations but considering the slope of the elastic

part of the resistance curve to be increased up to four times the

slope of the curve computed to represent the static resistanceo

This is equivalent to reducing the' yield deflection by four times.

Of course, the period of vibration is also affectedo

These problems and comparisons between them are plotted

in Figures 39 to 78. The curves at the top in each figure are

assumed resistance curves, the curves in the center are assumed

load pulses, and the curves at the bottom are the responses as

computed on the ILLIAC. Figures 39 to 53 are comparisons of problems

illustrating the effect on the response of variation in particular

quantities 0 Figures 54 to 78 are the problems not included in the

comparisonse Table 8 contains information concerning the compari­

sons made in Figs 0 39 through 53.

With information of this type the task of chOOSing a

resistance function to yield a given response and of relating the

chosen resistance function to changes in the properties of' the beam

materials due to high strain rates should be materially eased.

VIo S~Y

The primary objectives of the work described in this report

were: to adapt the available equipment and manufacture the additional

equipment necessary to carry out the proposed tests; to check the

operation of the equipment as individual units and as a unified whole;

to develop testing techniques through the testing of pilot beams; and

to make analyses of various single-degree-of-freedom systems under

different loading pulses to obtain information which will be of value

in the interpretation of future testso

Among the additional equipment fabricated were reaction

measuring supports which simulate simple support conditions while

permitting the measurement of uplift as well as downward reactiono

static tests were made on two beam specimens and provided an adequate

evaluation of the behavior and reliability of the loading, measuring,

and recording equipmento A total of 104 problems have been solved on

the ILLIAC and provide a guide to the selection of resistance func-

tions to match response c~ves obtained from future testso

The mechanical features and operation of the equipment and

instrumentation have been described in detail and illustrated with

figures and photographs. The manufacture of specimens and the proce-

dures for testing them are outlined 0 The results of the two static

tests presented in both tabular and graphical form~ Comparisons

are made between the test results and computed results based on an

existing theory. The solutions to the problems of the response of a

50

single-degree-of-freedom system to an impulsive load are presented

with sample comparisons between problems to illustrate the effect of

certain variables on the response.

DERIVATION OF EXPRESSIONS FOR CRITICAL MOMENTS AND DEFORMATIONS FOR STATICALLY LOADED BEAMS

52

This material is taken primarily from References 1 and 2.

The following assumptions are made in the calculations

for theoretical moment-carrying capacities and corresponding deform-

ations for reinforced concrete beams under static load:

(1) Linear strain distribution. Linear distribution of

strains throughout the depth of the beam is assumed

at all stages.

(2) stress-strain relationship for reinforcemento The

stress-strain relationship for the reinforcement is

assumed to be known. In the calculations, the actual

stress-strain curve of the steel is approximated by

an idealized curve consisting of three straight lines

as shown in Figo 210

(3) No tension resisted by concreteo Tension stresses in

the concrete are neglectedo Although some tension

stresses must always eXist, their effect on the moment-

carrying capacities and deformations of interest in

this report can be neglected with little erroro

(4) Bond between concrete and steel. The bond condition

between the reinforcement and the concrete influences

the condition of compatibility of strainso Perfect

bond is assumed to exist between the concrete and steelo

53

This assumption is not strictly correct since

local bond failures occur in the vicinity of

cracks.

The curvature is equal to the strain in the tension steel

at yielding occurs, the curvature ~ is as shown in Fig. 79: y

CPy = €

Y (l-k' )d

(6)

The values of curvature at yield moment at other sections of the beam

are assumed to be as follows: From the critical section at the face

of the stub or bearing block to the support, the curvature is assumed

to vary linearly from ~ to 00 Through the width of the stub, the y

curvature is assumed to remain constant and equal to ~ 0 Pictorially, y

the assumed distribution of curvature for a midspan loaded beam is

shown in Fig. 80 (Fig. 37 of Refo 2)0 Using the principle of the

conjugate beam the expression for computing the deflection at midspan

at yielding is

cp [ 2 2J D.y = ~ 2L + 2wL - w

Maximum Moment

For various reasons listed in Reference 2, it was imprac-

ticable to develop a rational relationship for the maximum moment-

carrying capacity of a concrete beam reinforced in tension and COID-

pression. Consequently, an empirical relationship was derived by

arbitrarily assuming that the moment arm between the centroid of the

tension reinforcement and the centroid of the compressive forces was

equal to the distance d t; that is, the resultant of the compressive

forces acted at the level of the compression reinforcemento

55

A nominal tension steel stress for the beams reported on in Reference 2

was then computed by dividing the measured maximum moment by the product

of the area of the tension steel and the distance d'. When this

nominal stress was divided by the yield stress of the steel, a ratio

was obtained which could be related to the dimensionless ~uantity

~f = (pf -ptf')/f'. A graph of this ratio versus q' is shown in y y c

Fig. 81 (Fig. 41 of Ref. 2). A straighy line fitted through these

poin"-;s yields the equation,

The beams for which the above equation was derived had the same

using Fig. 82 (Fig. 42 of Ref. 2)0 There is some theoretical justifi-

cation [,iven for the correlation of 6 with qUo However, of primary max

Consider the case of vibration of a beam of uniform cross-

section loaded by weight P at midspano

If the weight pL of the beam is small in comparison with the weight P,

it can be assumed with sufficient accuracy that the deflection curve

of the beam during elastic free vibration has the same shape as the

static deflection curve for a midspan loaded beam. Then, denoting

by 6 the displacement of the midsp~n during vibration, the displace­c

ment of any element pdn of the beam, distant n from the support,

will be

This formula was obtained for the assumption that the weight

of the beam is small in comparison with the weight Po Even in the

extreme case where P = 0 and where the assumption is made that (17/.35)pL

is concentrated at midspan the accuracy of this concentrating procedure

is sufficiently closeo The static deflection at midspan of the beam

under the action of the equivalent load (17/.35)pL applied at midspan is,

Substituting this into the well-known equation for the period of

natural vibration

T = 2n j 6st:tiC (6)

we obtain for the period of the beam with ~~ of the mass concentrated

at midspan,

The exact solution for the fundamental period of a beam on simple

supports with its mass distributed is

(8)

(See Article 52, Reference 4)0

If it had been assumed that the deflection curve of the

beam during elastic vibration was a sine wave, the equivalent mass

to be concentrated at midspan would be 1/2 the total mass of the beamJ

and the computation for period yields the exact value in equation 8

for P = O.

Again, if the deflection cur-~e during elastic vibration

is assumed to be triangular, then the equivalent mass to be concentrat-

ed at midspan is 1/3 the total mass of the beamo Since this deflected

shape would only occur during the inelastic range of behavior, it is

meanir~ess to compute an elastic period of vibration corresponding to

it.

In order to compute the equi~~lent concentrated mass for

some deflected shape which may be measured during the test of a beam,

as the deflection. This is strictly true for the cases computed

above for predetermined deflection configurations (sine wave, triangle,

etc.), where the shape of the deflection curve is constant throughout

the cycle of vibration though the magnitude of deflection changes.

However, when the shape as well as the magnitude of deflection changes,

then the velocities no longer vary as the deflectiono This is the

case for a reinforced concrete beam subjected to impulse loading 0 To

assume, therefore, that ~ /6 = 6 /6 is definitely an approximation. n c n c

APPENDIX C

NEWMARK 13 METHOD FOR COMPUTATION OF STRUCTURAL RESPONSE

This material is taken primarily from Reference 50

Let us consider the mass in a vibrating SDF system at the

time t. We assume we know the acceleration, velocity, and displace­n

ment of the mass at the time t 0 We wish to find these quantities at n

the time t 1 which differs from t by the time interval ho The n+ n

subscripts nand n+l indicate the values at either t or t l' respec-n n+

tively, for the quantities a, v, and xo

In general, for any time, the acceleration is given by the

relation

a = (p - Q)/M (1)

Let us define the displacement and the velocity at the end

of the time interval by the following equations:

v = v + (1 - ?') a h + f8.' h n+l n n n+l (3a)

For 7 = 1/2, this becomes

v 1 = v + a hi 2 + a 1 hi 2 n+ n n n+ (3b)

In these equations, the quantities 13 and r are parameters

which can take on assigned values so as to lead to the type of result

which we desireo It can be seen that equations (2) and (3) give correct

results for displacement and velocity when the acceleration does not

vary during the time interval. The values of the parameters will be

chosen so as to give the best representation under conditions when the

accelerations within the time interval do varyo

The numerical procedure is used in the following way~ An

assumption is made of the value of a 10 This can be taken as the same n+

as a , or an estimate can be extrapolated from a plot of successive n

values. By the application of equation (2) the displacement at the end

of the interval is computed 0 This gives a first estimate for the

configuration of the structure at the end of the interval. Then the

force ~+l' the resistance, is computed corresponding to this configu­

ration 0 (The resistance-deflection characteristics of the mass must

be previously known or assumedo) With the known value of Pn+l , the

computed value of ~l' and with the aid of equation (1), a derived

value of a 1 is obtained. This is in general different from the n+

assumed valueo The calculation is therefore repeated until a close

agreement is obtained between the assumed and derived values of a 10 n+

At this point the calculation for the time interval is completed, and

one can proceed with the next time interval.

Considerations of various factors, including the errors of

the results, the ease of computation, the possibility of checking

procedures, the stability and convergence of the procedure, etc., have

led to a choice of y = 1/2 and ~ = 1/6 for the values of the parameters

in equations (2) and (3)0 This still leaves a choice of time interval, h,

64

to be used in the calculations. This choice is also determined by

considerations of convergence and stability. Convergence ~~arantees

that the calculations for a particular time interval will converge

to some answer. Stabili ty insures that this answer is not too far

removed from the IIcorrect" answero

For convergence

E:< 1 T -21tP

(4)

and for stability

E:< 1

T 1t Jl-4fJ

For ~ = 1/6, these equations become

(4a)

h T < 00551 (5a)

Therefore, for ~ = 1/6, if the conditions of convergence are satisfied,

then the requirements for stability are also satisfied.

The value of 7 = 1/2 represents no damping in the system

and the value of ~ = 1/6 assumes a linear variation of acceleration

during the time interval under consideration.

The value of hiT generally used for machine solution of SDF

problems by the ILLIAC is chosen equal to o. 01. Although such a small

time interval would not be practical for hand computation, the ILLIAC

is fast enough to warrant hiT = 0.01 for automatic computation.
