This article presents a new developed calculation methodology, which includes provisions for standard calculations and takes into account the peculiarities of the operation of eccentrically compressed reinforced concrete structures operating at large eccentricities of load application. Adjustments have been made to the calculation methodology to take into account the following factors: the standard methodology uses the maximum tensile strength of reinforcement; proposals have been developed to determine the actual resistance of tensile reinforcement, which, in fact, will be significantly lower than the limit. Proposals are given that take into account the limiting deformations of concrete, which, in turn, will be a key quantity for determining the resistance of tensile reinforcement in the cross section. The article also presents the results of experimental studies of a flexible reinforced concrete pillar operating with a load eccentricity equal to e0 = 0.32h. Theoretical calculations and experimental studies were analyzed and appropriate conclusions were drawn.A formula has been developed to determine the real resistance of the stretched metal reinforcement at the time preceding destruction. The calculation algorithm has been compiled. When comparing theoretical and experimental strength, the difference did not exceed 5%.

This work is a continuation of a scientific study to determine the effectiveness of composite materials based on carbon fabric in the field of strengthening bending and compressed elements. The article is devoted to the determination of the geometric characteristics of prototypes, the description of the structure of the internal metal frame and the methodology for strengthening reinforced concrete samples. The importance of this scientific work lies in the fact that one of the most popular companies selling composite materials in Russia (“Gidrozo”) proposes to use a new technology for reinforcing reinforced concrete structures that differs from that recommended in the norms. However, according to the manufacturer's specialists, this technique not only ensures reliable adhesion and joint operation of reinforcement materials and structural concrete, but also significantly increases the efficiency of the composite material.

This paper presents, developed by the authors of this scientific article, a method for calculating the strength of reinforced concrete out-of-center compressed racks according to the current regulatory methodology according to SP 63.13330.2018. The peculiarity of this technique is the condition that when calculating the strength, an external force is unknown, in turn, the normative methodology, on the contrary, is focused on calculating the cross-sectional area of metal reinforcement, provided that an external force is known in advance. The inverse problem is not provided for by the norms, since it is used mainly for scientific purposes. Consequently, the methodology developed by us is of great value for research work, where an important factor is the determination of the strength of samples for subsequent comparison with the strength of the corresponding reference samples and the development of new proposals for calculation methods. For the convenience of the reader, the developed calculation method is presented as an example of calculating the strength of one off-center compressed reinforced concrete sample, with explanations and references to the formulas of the normative literature. The calculated sample was actually manufactured and tested in the laboratory of the Department of Housing and Communal Services of DSTU and all its characteristics were found experimentally, therefore, the calculation method is based on comparison with the results of experimental studies.

The results obtained during experimental studies of deflections of reinforced concrete struts of two flexibilities λh = 10 and 20 tested at three load application eccentricities e0=0; 2.0cm (0.16h) and 4.0cm (0.32h) are considered.Theoretical calculations of deflections were performed according to the current set of rules (SP 63.13330.2018). Based on experimental data and calculation results, it was found that the values of theoretical deflections differ significantly from experimental ones. The influence of the eccentricity of the load application and the flexibility of the samples on the convergence of the theoretical and experimental values of the deflections of the images was analyzed, possible causes of the discrepancy were considered and proposals for improving the calculation methodology were developed.

The main objects in the field of inspection and strengthening of reinforced concrete structures are the bearing elements of buildings and structures, however, a huge number of structures subject to the destructive effects of negative factors are reinforced concrete power transmission line poles and lighting poles. Due to the large margin of safety, often their damage is not critical and repair and restoration work is not carried out until the final loss of the bearing capacity of the structures. This state of affairs is a consequence of the significant labor intensity and cost of strengthening work, especially for power transmission towers located far from cities. Modern reinforcement methods based on the use of composite materials allow solving this problem without significant labor costs. These methods do not require laborious and time-consuming costs, which will allow you to quickly respond to the devastating consequences of negative factors that destroy power transmission line supports and lighting poles. This article discusses the existing methods for strengthening reinforced concrete supports of power transmission lines, identifies their shortcomings and proposes new methods based on the use of composite materials.

The choice of options for strengthening reinforced concrete structures is based on a large number of factors based on technical capabilities and economic efficiency. Modern construction requires new reinforcement methods that allow reducing labor costs and work time, while maintaining the aesthetic appearance of a building under construction or being restored. The stumbling block is the issue price and the reliability of new amplification methods. For this purpose, known and used reinforcement methods based on materials such as reinforced concrete and metal were compared with a fairly new reinforcement method used materials based on carbon fabric. This article provides examples and results of calculations for the reinforcement of a column with a reinforced concrete, metal and composite cage. Based on the results of the calculations, a technical and economic comparison of the existing reinforcement options was carried out.

The use of composite materials for reinforcing reinforced concrete structures is very popular abroad, and in recent years they have gradually conquered the Russian building materials market. Insufficiently complete scope of research activities does not allow the full use of composite materials in the field of reinforcing reinforced concrete structures. In addition, there is no single product range in which composite materials from different manufacturers have the same properties. Given the difficult political situation in Russia, a number of composites manufacturing companies have stopped supplying their materials to the country. In this regard, there is a need to research new manufacturers and their reinforcement materials. Given the great responsibility placed on structural reinforcement projects, the behavior and properties of the reinforcement materials must be studied. This paper provides a comparison of materials and techniques for performing work to strengthen 2 different firms, the reliability and efficiency of one of them, BASF, was tested as a result of research and development, but this firm stopped working in Russia, another firm, Hydrozo - is the most common, but little studied. Also, the work presents all the positive and negative properties of the technologies for performing work, an analysis is made regarding the prospects for the use of reinforcement materials.

In recent decades, composite materials have been widely used in the reinforcement and fabrication of reinforced concrete structures. However, the volume of experimental and research work in Russia is not large enough to determine all the possibilities and real effectiveness of composite materials in this area. This paper presents proposals for improving the methodology for calculating the strength of reinforced concrete flexible eccentrically compressed struts reinforced with composite materials in the transverse direction. The developed proposals are based on the results of experimental studies. The proposals were developed in the field of determining the additional compressive strength of concrete from the action of composite materials located in the transverse direction. The paper describes the shortcomings of the normative calculation methodology and developed a coefficient that corrects the formula for determining the resistance of concrete reinforced with composite materials Rb3.

The results of experimental studies on the formation of cracks in reinforced concrete racks of two slenderness λh = 10 and 20, tested at three eccentricities of load application e0 = 0; 2.0cm (0.16h) and 4.0cm (0.32h). On the basis of the experimental data and the results of calculations on the formation of cracks, it was found that the values ​​of the theoretical moments of cracking of the experimental compressed elements differ significantly from the experimental ones. An analysis was made of the influence of the eccentricity of the load application and the flexibility of the samples on the convergence of the theoretical and experimental moments of cracking in the samples, and the possible reasons for the change in the bearing capacity of the samples were also considered.

On the basis of experimental data, it was found that when calculating flexible reinforced concrete racks reinforced with composite materials in the transverse direction, the strength of the elements is underestimated by the norms. The influence of the composite reinforcement is not taken into account when calculating the stiffness D, the conditional critical force Ncrc and the slenderness coefficient η. Experimental data from the experiments carried out showed that the deflections of the reinforced struts were less than similar, not reinforced specimens, therefore, the influence takes place. Based on the analysis of the results of experiments, in the methodology of norms when calculating D, proposals were made that take into account the step of the transverse amplification at different eccentricities of the load application.
