The use of advanced composite materials for the design of concrete structures
Bártová, Denisa ; Matušíková, Anna (referee) ; Girgle, František (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the design of FRP reinforced concrete structures. The theoretical part is focused mainly on the punching shear of a flat two way slab according to ACI, fib Bulletin, CSA, and JSCE standards. This thesis also includes a description of the punching shear resistance according to Eurocode 2. FRP reinforcement, its mechanical properties, and their behaviour in time are also described. Next, a parametric study was performed that examines the effects of various parameters on the punching shear resistance according to the standards mentioned above. At the end a non-linear analysis using the ATENA software was performed. The practical part includes a structural design of a flat two way slab. The slab uses a steel reinforcement at the bottom, while the top is reinforced with FRP reinforcement. The punching shear design is also included. In the last chapter the serviceability limit state is checked, specifically the slab long-term deflection. The thesis also includes drawings. All calculations were performed in accordance with Eurocode 2 and fib Bulletin No. 40.

Nováček, Jan ; Halvoník,, Jaroslav (referee) ; Vítek,, Jan (referee) ; Zich, Miloš (advisor)
The thesis deals with the topic of the punching shear of the reinforced concrete structures with a focus on an additional strengthening. The introduction of the thesis is devoted to the research of various types of strengthening against the punching and their efficiency on an increase of load-bearing capacity. Material nonlinear models are formed for strengthening by an additional concrete head, a slab concrete overlay and a column concrete jacketing. The results from the nonlinear analysis are compared with various standards, including the new generation of Eurocodes. Detailed analysis of an additional concrete head is performed regarding governing inputs, which influence load-bearing capacity. Theoretical assumptions were applied to the design of the additional concrete head, where long-term measurement has been performed for the comparison with the analytical assumptions and the material nonlinear model. The second part of the thesis deals with the strengthening of foundation structures, which are accessible only from one surface. There is presented newly developed technology for strengthening by the additional shear reinforcement with the combination of bonding and mechanical anchorage. The assessment of proposed technology is defined for the strengthening against punching shear based on tested samples. The detailed technological procedure is described, including the procedure for the application on the structures below ground water level. Long-term measurement of the shear reinforcement was carried out for the strengthened foundation slab.
Design and analysis of precast dapped-end beams
Hasa, Michal ; Navrátil,, Jaroslav (referee) ; Vítek,, Jan (referee) ; Zich, Miloš (advisor)
The doctoral thesis deals with the analysis of the dapped-end beam detail, in terms of theoretical modelling and practical design using the strut-and-tie method as well as experimental verification of the bearing capacity and the behaviour of the detail under load by means of load tests and subsequent numerical nonlinear analysis. A summary of known structural and static designs explored in the literature has been presented. In addition, the strut-and-tie method has been introduced as an appropriate tool for a consistent design of the detail, element or the whole structure. The theoretical basis for the method has been described, including the general methodology for design and analysis. Practical problems have been discussed, specifically those resulting from the known design of the analysed detail based on the German approach; its modification has been processed theoretically taking into account the practical mode of reinforcement. An experiment has been suggested with a view to verify the presented calculation procedure and the influence of the used ratio of vertical to inclined hanger reinforcement on the bearing capacity and behaviour of the detail under load. The experiment also included accompanying material tests of the concrete which were used along with the inspection certificates issued for the used reinforcement as a basis for the nonlinear finite element analysis. Based on the results, the presented design procedure can be considered safe. These results also imply that the chosen ratio of vertical and inclined hanger reinforcements has no influence on the ultimate bearing capacity within practical reinforcement, as it only influences the formation, development and final width of cracks. With the growing ratio of the inclined hanger reinforcement, the width and density of cracks decreases at all stages of loading. Owing to their limitations, primarily during the service state, it is recommended that the minimal inclined reinforcement should be used.

Probabilistic analysis of reinforced concrete bridge made of I-73 girders
Nezval, Michal ; Šomodíková, Martina (referee) ; Lehký, David (advisor)
Many older bridges on the highways and roads in the Czech republic and all arend the world have been designed by codes, which are distinct of currently valid codes. Considering current codes, it is possible to set load bearing capacity in few different ways. In presented diploma thesis nonlinear finite element analysis using deterministic methods is compared with fully probabilistic nonlinear finite element analysis. Girder I-73 is analysed. Also the influence of degradation processes and following corrosion of reinforcement is taken into account, when load capacity is predicted for residual service life.
Stochastic analysis of shear failure of reinforced concrete beams
Kucek, Martin ; Doležel, Jiří (referee) ; Novák, Drahomír (advisor)
The diploma thesis is focused on a solution of the load reaction of the bridge construction from girders KA-73. Proposal methods of the nonlinear analysis by means of final elements on the stochastic and deterministic level are used for the solution of the load reaction. A simulation technique Latin Hypercube Sampling is used within the stochastic analysis. A material degradation in the form of the trussing corrosion is solved with the expected decrease of the construction lifetime. The conclusion of the thesis contains an evaluation of initial quantities of material parameters for the load reaction of the construction in the form of the sensitivity analysis.
Software of fracture-mechanical parameters and probabilistic analysis support used for statistical analysis of roof prestressed girders
Novák, Lukáš ; PhD, Ladislav Řoutil, (referee) ; Novák, Drahomír (advisor)
The paper shows the creation of software IO-SUPPORT, which will be used to determine the load capacity of constructions by probability methods and its visualization. There are two main functions implemented in the software. The first one is able to calculate unknown input variables used in reliability analysis. The second function is desgined to determine the load capacity and create the visualization. In practical application is the software used to analyze a roof beam and determine the design load capacity of that beam in accordance with EC standards. For creation of stochastic model the unique database of fracture-mechanical parameters was created and implemented in software FReET.

Jelínek, Jan ; Vincour, Dušan (referee) ; Létal, Tomáš (advisor)
This thesis deals with the nonlinear analysis of stability loss of flue gas pipe. This pipe is a part of desulphurization line. The thesis describes the creating of a simplified FEM model. It also describes the setting of the boundary conditions of the model for few loading cases. These cases differ by preference for one of the load as dominant. There are proposed several variants of stiffening by light ring stiffener. The work is finished by comparing the resistance to the stability loss of the reinforced variants and unreinforced model of flue gas pipe.
