Abstract
This paper analyzed the cracking behavior of carbon fiber reinforced concrete beam under static load using the finite element numerical analysis. By the way of finite element numerical simulation and the method of increasing the load gradually to analyze the carbon fiber content influence on the beam cracking, crack developing, beam deflection and beam average crack spacing. By comparing with the simulation result of common reinforced concrete beam test piece, it turned out that the carbon fiber reinforced concrete beam has a good cracking and deformation behavior under the same ratio of reinforcement. Under the same load, both the carbon fiber reinforced concrete beam and the common reinforced concrete beam have a small deformation, but the carbon fiber reinforced concrete beam showed a better resistance to deformation as the load increasing, its deflection increasing extent showed an obvious decrease compared with that of the common reinforced concrete beams. Its crack width can be revised by the common reinforced concrete beam rules.
