| description |
This study presents the results of the structural
properties of light weight oil palm clinker concrete beams
reinforced with bamboo. The variables used in case of
light weight concrete were water - cement ratio and mix proportion.
The hardened concrete was tested for compressive strength,
tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, shrinkage and creep. So
far as the reinforcement is concerned the results of mechanical
and physical properties of Dendrocal amusasper bamboointerms
of specific gravity, moisture content, tensile strength of nodal and internodal specimens, compression strength parallel and
perpendicular to the grain, static bending test and modulus of
elasticity are presented.
Twelve beams with different reinforce mentratios were
casted and tested under the two - third point loading to obtain
service load, propagation of cracks, deflection, mode of failure and the failure loads. Four of these beams are
light weight oil palm clinker concretere inforced with split
bamboo and another four beams are reinforced with steel while
the restare normal concrete beams reinforced with split
bamboo. Reinforcement percentages of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0
were tried in these experiments.Based on the strength of properties obtained, it can be
concluded that the selected bamboo species can be used as
reinforcement in concrete while oil palm clinker concrete is
comparable to those of the control normal concrete specimen.
Of the twelve beams tested, it was found that the
composite action of oil palm clinker concrete and bamboo
reinforcement is reasonably exhibited. The British Standards
Code of Practice BS8ll0 could be used in designing the
light weight clinker concrete beams reinforced with bamboo. In
conclusion, clinker concrete beams reinforced with split bamboo
as main reinforcement and as stirrups can be viable so long as
the durability of the biological material is ensured. |
