Mathematical Simulation for Comparison of Unreinforced Concrete and CFRP of I-Beam Using FEM

Abstract

In present research we are we analyze the I beam using FEM software Ansys14.5 and comparing Unreinforced concrete and CFRP laminates Reinforced concrete components such as beams and columns are made strong in flexure through the utilization of Fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites which are attached in their tension zones. In this study finite element method is used to study the deflection of rectangular concrete I Beam reinforced by FRP laminate composites at the top surface of the beam. In this study the FRP is CFRP. ANSYS software is used for finite element modelling. In this study unreinforced beam and beam reinforced with CFRP are compared on the basis of deformation and stresses. The variables in the finite element modelling are type of FRP and different length of FRP laminates. In this study it is observed that CFRP is provided more strength to the structure as compare to the unreinforced material. Simulation results show that CFRP Laminates provides strength to the I-beam section. Now we conclude with the help of simulative results that there is 50% reduction in deformation for length of 950mm CFRP laminate as compare to unreinforced concrete and 44% reduction in stresses for length of 950mm CFRP laminate as compare to unreinforced concrete. CFRP Provided more strength to the structure (I-Beam) and effective than Unreinforced concrete material in reduction of deformation and stresses.
