The workshop concerned is a portal frame structure with four spans and two slope roofs, of which ten columns need cutting for expanding span. The design and reconstruction project of column-cut supported by joist were introduced, which includes column reinforcement, connection rebuilding between brackets and crane beams, and the changing of rigid joint into hinge joint. The construction scheme was put forward in the light of the characteristics of the reinforcement and reconstruction. Spot test of dynamic performance on the workshop and comparison with theoretical analysis results show that the column-cut supported by joist design is effective and the reconstruction project is successful.展开更多

To verify the effectiveness of the method for strengthening RC two-way slabs, seven flat slabs with the dimensions of i 500 mm x 1 500 mm x 70 mm and an internal reinforcement ratio of 0.22% were prepared and tested until failure under concentrated loading, of which one was unstrengthened, one was strengthened with CFRP strips bonded to its soffit making a grid pattern （termed the CFRP grid）, and five were strengthened with a hybrid grid of CFRP strips and steel strips in two orthogonal directions （termed the CFRP-steel grid） to the bottom with steel bolt anchorage. The investigation parameters are the strengthening method, the strip spacing （150, 200, and 250 mm） and the layers of CFRP strips （one layer, two layers, and three layers of CFRP strips are applied for CFRP-steel grid）. The experimental results show that the strengthening RC two-way slabs with CFRP-steel grid are effective in delaying concrete cracking and enhancing the load-carrying capacity and deformability in comparison to the CFRP grid strengthening. The yield-line analysis model is proposed to predict the load-carrying capacity of the strengthened slabs. The prediction results are in good agreement with the experimental results.展开更多

The rotating blades are the core parts of a ventilator, they can influence the safety and reliability of the ventilator. This paper will use the tip-timing method based on the fiber Bragg grating magnetically coupling sensor to study and analyze the ventilator blade vibration, in order to realize long-distance and non-contact real-time online safety monitoring of blade vibration. Compared with the electronic sensorand fiber intensity reflective sensor, the fiber grating coupling magnetic sensor has such advantages as explosion-proof, working at harsh environment with humid air, dust and greasy dirt, capable of achieving long-distance signal transmission, and joining easily with other fiber Bragg grating sensors to form a network in order to achieve multi-parameter distributed online monitoring.展开更多

This paper presents the design and implementation of a railway switch pole strain on-line monitoring system based on the FBG stress-sensibilized monitor for a Siemens S700K switch machine. The ring shape FBG strain gauge and stress-sensibilized methods significantly increased the monitoring sensitivity. Installing approaches adapted the harsh environment in the railway application. The monitoring results showed the high sensitivity and high reliability of this monitoring system. This application provides a long-term and on-line detecting method which could meet railway switch condition monitoring demands of more than 100,000 switch machines in the country.展开更多
