Abstract:
Through uniaxial tensile tests, the mechanical behavior of the bone-shaped concrete reinforced with glass textile and carbon textile impregnated with resin epoxy was verified using a stress-strain response curve. It was observed that elements reinforced with glass fabric presented different mechanical responses, depending on the textile reinforcement rate. In samples with two layers of glass fabric, the three stages were formed, as predicted in the literature. In the specimens reinforced with only one layer, the structural incapacity of the element was observed. For samples reinforced with carbon textile, there were problems with slipping and spalling caused by the concentration of stress at the ends of the piece. Even so, it was possible to clearly determine the three stages in the curve response of the material. The stresses experimentally obtained in the elements reinforced with carbon textile obtained results approximately five times greater than those of the glass fabric.
