Abstract:Made a finite element analysis on mechanical properties of five reinforced slab-column members of different steel mesh arrangements through high performance ferrocement laminate (HPFL) reinforcement method. The analysis shows that the bearing capacity of reinforced slab columns and rigidity of midspan slab band are improved differently by the schemes, and with the different layout types ('田' type, '井' type and cross type) of steel mesh in reinforced layers, the reinforced members appear the different reinforcement effects and mechanical behaviors. On the condition of the punching shear resistance of original columns strong enough, the cross-type reinforcement is the best bending resistance reinforcement pattern and the '田' type reinforcement is the second.
