Bending Performance Evaluation of Hybrid Forming Composite Beam with High Depth

Abstract

Bending Performance Evaluation of Hybrid Forming Composite Beam with High Depth Composite beam;Hybrid beam;New shape and high depth;Bending performance test;Flexural strength; Recently according to the decreasing of steel price and increasing of labor cost the various studies of steel structure and composite structure are proceeding. This study developed the new shape of high depth hybid forming composite beam and performed the bending test to evaluate the bending performance by creating 10 specimens. Bending test result showed that capacity of the beam was increased stably. The ratio of the nominal load to the maximum load($P_u/P_n$) is 1.19 and the deformation capacity(${\delta}_{0.8P_u}/{\delta}_y$) is 3.9~4.5. Also, it is possible to apply the existing evaluation equation(KBC 2009) of composite beam.
