| Contract Title | [Re-Notice] Experimental Research on Tension Strength of Embed plates with Welded Deformed Reingorcing Bar as Governed by Concrete Breakout |
| Contract Overview |
This Re-Notice is to notice changes of Estimated Value and Expected Completion ate on Notice No.2019-14. The purpose of the project is to perform the anchor group pullout/breakout tests to confirm the failure behavior and the tensile strength of the embed plates with welded deformed reinforcing bars which are often used in safety related nuclear facilities and to propose design requirements based on the experimental results. In addition, individual anchor pullout tests and concrete material test should be performed for the accuracy of the test results. Finally, a report including the experimental summary and new design philosophy for the embed plates with deformed reinforcing bars which is very important to our company for designing nuclear power plant shall be secured. |
| Estimated Value | USD 38,000 |
| Expected Completion Date | 2020-06-15 |
| Reason(s) for the Sole Sourcing |
The Purdue Research and engineering team led by Prof. Amit Varma is the leading group and world renowned expert team on testing of Concrete Anchor System, behavior analysis, and design. Prof. Varma and the research engineer have already conducted small scale and full scale tests of embed plates equipped with DRA and DBAs and plan to conduct more experiment with many specific specimens. Design Code for a Concrete anchorage system using Reinforcing bar is not established in ACI 349 "Code Requirements for Nuclear Safety Relate Concrete Structures" so for, Prof. Varma who is affiliated to ACI 349 sub-Committte C Member plans to suggest design requrement to ACI 349 based on their experimental results. Final report from this project and design requrement are very essential design material for designing nuclear power plant. When the technical level and short estimated project duration (about 11 months in research) are considered, Prof. Varma and his exprienced engineers is the only contractor to performed the project successfully. |
