- Abstract
To investigate the impact of stirrup pitting corrosion on the stress–strain model of core concrete under compression, this study, based on existing corroded steel specimens, establishes a probabilistic model of the residual cross-sectional area distribution of steel bars to reasonably evaluate the effect of pitting on the mechanical performance of stirrups. Considering the tension stiffening effect in reinforced concrete, a time-dependent damage model of corroded steel bars in concrete was determined, and the existing stress–strain model of concrete confined by stirrups was ultimately modified, establishing a time-dependent constitutive model that incorporates the effects of stirrup pitting corrosion. A comparison with previous experimental results indicates that the revised model presented in this paper can appropriately reflect the changes in the mechanical performance of concrete confined by corroded stirrups. The results of this study can provide theoretical support for the refined numerical analysis of reinforced concrete structures under the erosion of chloride ions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...
