Numerical validation data of tensile stress zones and crack zones in bamboo reinforced concrete beams using the Fortran PowerStation 4.0 program.

ABSTRACT: Numerical verification is carried out in order to control the compatibility of the BRC beam crack pattern with the stress contour at the ultimate load. The numerical method used is the finite element method (FEM) using the Fortran PowerStation 4.0 program. Material data entered is the elasticity modulus (E) and Poisson's ratio (?). Ultimate load input data is taken from BRC beam testing in the laboratory. Bamboo reinforcement and concrete are considered to have the same displacement with a different elasticity modulus (E), so they experience different stresses. The triangle element is employed to model the plane-stress with two directions of displacement at each nodal point, so that each element has six degrees of freedom. The BRC beam tensile stress data from the Fortran PowerStation 4.0 program is processed into a tensile stress data table and becomes the Surfer program input data for mapping tensile stress zone images. Crack pattern data from laboratory beam testing is processed into crack zone pattern photo data and then compared to the tensile stress zone images. From the image data of the tensile stress zones and the crack zones of the BRC beam have compatibility. The Fortran PowerStation 4.0 programming language data in this article can be used for further research with the discretization of triangular elements in other cases. This article consists of a data table, a picture of a crack pattern zone, a drawing of tensile stress zones, and photo documentation. The data is related to "Enhancing bamboo reinforcement using a hose-clamp to increase bond-stress and slip resistance" [1].
