***Rectangular Column Shear Enhancement by ICC AC125***

Project: Retrofitting of Anglo Warehouse, Column C-1

Location: Canlubang, Laguna

Design Goal: Supplement original transverse reinforcement to provide increased shear

strength and to improve earthquake peroformance of the structure. The target additional
shear strength is 31 kips.

1) Existing Column Properties:

H 11.8 in. column diameter
l 118.11 in. column length
f’c 3000 psi concrete compressive strength
fy 40 ksi yield strength of reinforcement
Transverse reinforcement: 10mm bars @ 8” o.c.

2) Properties of Tyfo® SEH-51A Glass

Composite System:
Ɛ 0.004 allowable design strain for shear, ICC AC125
E 3790 ksi typical test value for tensile modulus
CE 0.8 environmental reduction factor
EG CEE 3032 ksi guaranteed design modulus
f ƐEG 12.128 ksi guaranteed design stress
t 0.05 in. composite thickness

3) Shear enhancement with one layer of composite:

where:
φV = φ2.86 f t H ICC AC125 7.3.2.6
φ = 0.85 reduction factor for shear, ACI 318
φV = 17.40 kips
Shear enhancement provided by one layer of the
Tyfo® SEH-51A Glass

4) Calculate required number of layers of composite:

The required additional shear force the columns must carry is, Vreq = 31 kips
Therefore, the number of layers required is:
Vreq / V = 120
1.78kips / say
54.79 kips
2 per layer
layers= 2.2 say 3 layers

5) Conclusions:
Providing 2 layers Tyfo® SEH-51A fiber will enhance the shear capacity of the
Glass shear force of 31 kips.
