Negli ultimi decenni si sono diffusi nel pano-rama internazionale nuovi materiali per il rinforzo degli edifici del patrimonio edilizio italiano. Questi nuovi sistemi di rinforzo so-no stati sviluppati per migliorare la capacità resistente degli elementi strutturali esistenti permettendo così di adattarsi alle sempre più stringenti richieste delle normative vigenti. La campagna sperimentale presentata in questo lavoro è progettata per valutare l’efficacia di compositi realizzati con un tessuto in fibra di acciaio e una matrice inorganica (Steel Reinfoirced Grout), applicati per il rinforzo flessionale di travi in calcestruzzo armato (c.a.), tramite prove di laboratorio su quattro punti. Il numero di strati applicati e la densità del tessuto di fibra utilizzato sono stati studiati per analizzare l’efficienza di tali sistemi. Inoltre, sono state svolte delle prove di taglio diretto su campioni prismatici in calcestruzzo rinforzati con strisce di composito SRG per valutare l’aderenza. I risul-tati ottenuti e le modalità di rottura riscontrate sono stati analizzati e discussi.

Abstract

In the last decades, new materials have been employed for strengthening and rehabilitation of existing historical buildings that are part of the Italian cultural heritage. Among the newly developed strengthening systems, steel reinforced grout composites (SRG) have recently considered as an alternative to other composite to increase the capacity of existing structural ele-ments and allow to conform to more stringent code requirements. The experimental campaign presented in this work is aimed at in-vestigaing the influence of steel reinforced grout (SRG) composites, used as an external layer of reinforcement, on the flexural be-havior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Four-point bending tests were performed in displacement control on concrete beams. Several aspects, as the number of composite layers and fiber sheet density have been investigated in order to analyze the effective-ness of the strengthening system. In addition, direct single-lap shear tests were performed on SRG-concrete joints to investigate the bond behavior of SRG composites. Results and failure modes of the flexural and bond tests performed are analyzed and discussed in terms of flexural capacity (beam), ductility (beam), and bond capacity (single-lap)
