Abstract: Ductility of the beam is important phenomenon while calculating the strength of any structure. This paper discusses the ductile behavior of beam reinforced with super elastic shape memory alloys. Before initiating the experimental program preliminary properties of shape memory alloys (SMA) were defined and concrete properties are defined by casting standard cubes. Experimental program consists of two point load test on a beam reinforced with SMA. Beam is loaded to know the ultimate deflection. Load deflection characteristics and deformation of the beam are analysed to study the ductile characteristics.
Keywords: Ductility, SMA, Load Deflection Characteristics, Deformation.
Scope of the Article: Pattern Recognition and Analysis.
