Abstract This paper presents a developed three dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) model, using ABAQUS software, to explore the effect of the reinforcing rebar distribution on the flexural strength for exterior beam-column joints. The results of the experimental tests conducted by Rekha S. P. et al. [1], are used to validate the results of the developed FE model. Three exterior beam-column joint specimens, have been experimentally investigated under the effect of static loading by Rekha S. P. et al. [1]. Each of the tested specimen has the same reinforcement ratio but with varying bar diameters to allow for variable distribution of reinforcing rebar. Three more beam-column joint specimens have been prepared exactly as the first three specimens but with beam of closer stirrups spacing. The six specimens have been statically loaded reaching the failure load and hence the flexural strength was determined for each. Six FE models of exterior beam-column joint are created simulating the former experimentally tested concrete joints. The developed geometrically and material nonlinear 3D model is able to trace the load-displacement path for all the tested concrete joints with adequate accuracy.

Keywords:Beam-Column Joint, FE, Modeling, Rebar, Flexural Strength. ---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------1. INTRODUCTION The intersection of beam and column is called a joint or connection. The performance of beam-column joints have long been conceded as an influential ingredient that impacts the general performance of reinforced concrete framed structures subjected to large lateral loads. The reversal of forces in beam-column joints during earthquakes may cause distress and often failure, when not designed and detailed properly. However, the current study is focused on the behavior of the concrete beam-column joint under the effect of monotonic loading. Multiple approaches in modelling beam-column joint response have been proposed through earlier researches with using experimental data to calibrate these models. At the early stage, the inelastic response of the concrete frames was introduced as the response of a plastic hinge within beamcolumn line element [2], [3], [4], [5]. Later on, a rotational spring element of zero-length has been used to connect beam and column elements as proposed by El-Metwally and Chen [6], Alath and Kunnath [7]. Three dimensional nonlinear FE has been developed by Nagai et al. [8] to simulate the response of high strength concrete beamcolumn joint exposed to biaxial monotonic loading. Apart from these relatively simplified models, Eligehausen et al. [9] and Sharma et al. [10] have proposed a detailed FE modeling for fracture in quasi-brittle materials.

2. EXPERIMENTAL TESTS 2.1 Beam-Column JointPresentation

have aimed to study the effect of varying diameter of the tensile reinforcement bars in beam and spacing of stirrups on the flexural strength. The 28 day compressive strength of 150 × 150 mm cube was found to be 42.85 MPa. The cross section for both of column and beam was 230 × 160 mm. The column length is 1000 mm while the beam length was 600 mm measured from the column’s face. The columns were reinforced with 4 bars of 16 mm diameter and stirrups of 8 mm diameter with 160 mm c/c spacing. 6 of 8 mm diameter, 4 of 10 mm diameter, and 3 of 12 mm diameter bars were provided at the tensile face for beams in specimens BCJ1, BCJ2, and BCJ3 respectively. 2 bars of 8 mm diameter were used in the compressive face for all tested beam-column specimens. In the first three specimens, the spacing of the shear reinforcement was set aside 150 mm c/c while in the left three specimens namely BCJ4, BCJ5, and BCJ6, the stirrups spacing was 100 mm c/c as detailed in Fig-1.

2.2 Experimental Setup and Loading Procedure The beam-column joint specimens have been tested using a loading cell of 100 kN loading capacity. Each prepared specimen was affirmed where the bottom end of the column was restrained against both the vertical and lateral translations. On the other hand, the top end of the column was only laterally restrained. 130 kN axial load was applied on the top end of the column using a hydraulic jack of 500 kN capacity. A point load was applied to the beam at a distance of 100 mm from the beam end. Dial gauge was used to measure the beam tip deflection at every load increment of 2 kN. The setup of the test rig is shown in Fig2.

Six specimens of exterior beam-column joints were prepared and tested by Rekha S Patel et al. [1]. The experimental tests ________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Each of the tested specimens was loaded up to failure. The applied load values corresponding to the first crack and the ultimate load were recorded besides the ultimate deflection. The experimental results have proved that, the concrete beam provided with constant area of reinforcing bars but with a smaller bar diameter, in the tension side could carry a relatively higher ultimate load. Moreover, reducing the stirrups spacing has resulted in a greater load carrying capacity and a higher ductility.

3.1 Introduction FE method is a numerical analysis for attaining approximate solutions to an extensive diversity of engineering problems. This has flourished concurrently with growing use of highspeed digital computers and with the evolution in numerical methods for engineering analysis. In consequence of its variety and flexibility as analysis tool, it is receives much attention in engineering field and in industry. FE analysis is a helpful technique for resolving structures of complex geometry, high nonlinear materials, and intricate boundary conditions. This method can issue extensive and authentic results if it is used appropriately. Moreover the FE analysis is much cheaper than the full-scale tests. To achieve prosperous results, a precise model simulating the real structures should be considered. Since the purpose of this study is to better simulating the behavior of the concrete beam-column joint under the effect of monotonic loading, a detailed 3D FE model has been developed. The proved model is able to accurately capture the performance of beam-column joint under the effect of static loading.

3.2 Discrete Element The concrete beam-column joint is modelled using eight node continuum hexahedral brick elements with reduced integration, C3D8R, available in ABAQUS code. Such eligible eight node brick element is able to simulate the behavior of nonlinear static and dynamic analysis and allows for finite strain and rotation in large displacement analysis as well. The longitudinal and confinement reinforcement bars are modelled as a truss element T3D2 available in ABAQUS. The embedded element option is used to the represent the bond relation between reinforcement bars and concrete. Embedded element technique presented a good performance tool that facilitates modelling of concrete-reinforcement rebar relation under monotonic loading. Such embedded elements option allows to use varying mesh sizes for both of concrete and reinforcement rebar. Fig-3 shows the element discretization for both of the concrete block joint a) and the reinforcing bars b) as well.

connotation of isotropic damaged plasticity together withisotropic tensile and compressive plasticity included in the CDP constitutive model. Such model is proposed mostly for the analysis of concrete structures exposed to monotonic, cyclic, and dynamic loads. CDP uses stress-strain to relate parameters for relative concrete damage in compression or in tension. After achieving the yield stress in a simple plasticity model, the residual plastic strain remains after removing the applied load by repercussion function of the concrete modulus of elasticity. CDP parameters adjust the repercussion function to encompass the damage effects as shown in Fig- 5. CDP model takes into account the effect of cyclic loading since a retrieval factor could be assigned to consider the total magnitude of the reverse loading strength available after achieving the damage.

3.3 Material Modelling 3.3.1 Steel Reinforcing Rebar Constitutive Model Idealized elastic perfectly plastic constitutive model, shown in Fig-4, is considered to represent the behavior of the steel reinforcing rebar. The linear elastic behavior at low strain values is defined through introducing the Young’s modulus to the software code. The nonlinear behavior initiates corresponding to higher strain values. Before achieving the yield stress, the developed deformation produces only elastic strains, which is entirely recovered when the applied load is removed. As soon as the rebar stress transcends the yield stress, plastic deformation initiates regarding any further deformations. The yield stress for longitudinal bars and confinement bars is taken as 500 MPa with 200000 MPa modulus of elasticity and 0.3 Poisson’ ratio.

Regarding uniaxial tension, the stress-strain relation starts linearly till achieving the failure tension value đ?œŽđ?‘Ą0 . After the circumstance of the concrete failure strain, the softening stress-strain response containing strain localization in the concrete structures, is used to represent the developing of concrete micro cracks. On the opposite, the concrete response is linear under the effect of uniaxial compression till achieving the initial yield value đ?œŽđ?‘?0 . The response is identified in the plastic reign by the strain hardening proceeded by softening of strain after achieving the ultimate stress Ďƒcu, as presented in Fig-5 b). Although such representation is relatively simplified, it can capture the main concrete characteristics. Thus, concrete stress during unloading state at any point on the strain softening branch of the stress-strain curve, can be determined by: đ?‘?đ?‘™

The interaction between the rebar and the concrete have a propensity to bring down the mesh sensitivity, in condition that a proper quantity of tension stiffening is provided to the FE model to characterize such concrete-rebar interrelation.The response of the tension stiffening depends on some factors as the bond quality between the rebar and the concrete, the reinforcement density, the rebar diameter relative to the size of the concrete aggregate, and the mesh size. The strain softening model could be assumed such that the stress to be degraded linearly from failure stress to zero at a correspondence strain of about ten times the strain at failure. Hence in the tension stiffening, the stress reaches to zero at a correspondence strain of 10-3 since in standard concretes, the typical failure strain is 10-4. A precise calibration is required before using this parameter for any different case.

The tension stiffening that enables for determining the The brittle behavior of the concrete response is introduced cracked concrete strain softening behavior, is used to model as a stress-displacement rather than a stress-strain to the interaction relation between rebar and concrete.

The yield condition considered in CDP model, is based on the yield function proposed by Lubliner J. el al. [12] and the modifications proposed by Fenves G.L. and Lee J. [13] to calculate various evolution of strength under tension and compression referring to p as the hydrostatic pressure stress and q as the Mises equivalent effective stress as seen in Fig10. The coefficient đ?›ź can be determined from đ?œŽđ?‘?0 , the biaxial initial yield compressive stress and đ?œŽđ?‘?0 , uniaxial initial yield compressive stress. Considering the modifications of the Drucker Prager theory, the failure surface in the deviatoric plane does not need to be a circle, and it is also governed for parameter đ??žđ?‘? as shown inFig-11.

3.4 Boundary Conditions The boundary conditions of the analyzed beam-column joint is provided by restraining the three translation degrees of freedom for the bottom column nodes layer. On the opposite, the top column nodes layer are laterally restrained in both horizontal directions. Analysis are conducted in two simultaneous steps. In the first step, a vertical load of 130 kN is applied at the center of the top column layer. Next

Certain monitoring points are considered for all created meshes in order to measure displacements at these points and also to evaluate the applied load at these joints. Fig-12and Fig-13 present the concrete plastic strains and Mises stresses for the rebar respectively at the end of FE analysis. Concrete plastic strain resulted in the numerical analysis, can draw an approximate map for the concrete cracks that developed in the experimental test. The comparison of the beam-column joint applied load-beam tip displacement is depicted in Fig14. A close agreement, obtained between the FE and the test results presented in the mentioned above figure, provides a strong confidence that other parameters not recorded in the experimental tests could be evaluated directly from the FE models considered.
