Experimental assessment of bond behavior of HPC of beam column joint under static load

Abstract

Abstract An experimental examination of high-performance column compression behaviour (HPC) under static loads is presented in this research. High performance concrete strength, amount and reinforcing space, connection, and yield strength of all materials are among the test variables. The loaded column is distinguished by the pre-cover opening caused by the split plate generated between the cover and the core. Twelve beam column joints specimens are built according to current practice by high performance with different grades and forms and tested under static loads to determine the common concrete effect of in place of traditional concrete at the joint location. The testing results indicate that high performance concrete specimens are more effective in T section than reference concrete specimens in L section. The software's response is appropriate. According to the experimental investigation's findings, the joint region's HPC and reinforcing components interact effectively. Thoroughly investigated the bond strength, crack initiation and propagation, load transfer mechanisms, and overall ductility. These results offer a greater comprehension of the role that HPC plays in the structural integrity of beam-column joints and the ways in which its characteristics affect how well the joint functions under static loading circumstances.
