 Test reports Test results on basalt rebar fatigue
strength
1
Under the fatigue of constructional materials are understood the gradual accumulation of damages as a result of cyclic loads, which
cause the formation and spread of the cracks, leads to destruction. Endurance is the material ability to resist fatigue and withstand a
predetermined level of stress a certain number of load cycles prior to fracture. 2
The basic document that gives an idea of the resistance to fatigue destruction of the investigated material in a product or sample is a
diagram of fatigue (or a Veller curve). It is constructed by testing of 5 or more samples at different stress levels at the same
frequency, the form of the cycle and the asymmetry coefficient R= min/ max. To construct the Veller curve, it is advisable to conduct 3
tests at four to six levels of stress.
The fatigue diagram has, as a rule, a specific asymptotic character with the output of its lower part at such a level of stress, in which
the sample does not collapse. The specified maximum stress R or N, which corresponds to the predetermined test base, called the  4
limit of endurance. At a symmetric load cycle, the limit of endurance is to be designated ‐1 (value index of the stress ratio of cycle R=
–1). Fatigue diagrams, in most cases, are constructed in coordinates” –lgN ”.

6
Tension that corresponds to the maximum static loading by stretching (Pmax,) to destruction of samples of basalt
rebar in diameter from 4mm to 12 mm is в~108 kg/мм2 (1080 МPа), which corresponds to the strength of the high-
strength steel rebar class A-1000. 7

The relative lengthening of the basalt rebar δ is in the range from 1,9 to 2,2 %, and is commensurate with δ rebar А– 8

• Basalt rebar is used according to ACI 440.1R-06. Use in construction is dictated by code
440.6-08. The rebar is designed by 440.6-08 and is tested in accordance with ASTM
3
D7205 and several other test methods. Testing of basalt reibar in accordance with
4
ASTM showed that basalt reibar fully meets the requirements of ACI 440.6-08.

5
• Also applies to the basalt rebar code ACI 440R-07. Report on fiber reinforced plastics
(FRP) for concrete structures. The use of basalt rebar began after ACI 440.6-08 was
6
published, where basaltic rebar was not separately mentioned. However, ACI 440R-07
specifies the basalt rebar separately as a rebar based on fiber reinforced plastics. It
7
says: "Fibers that are commonly used to make plastic rebar reinforced with fibers such
us glass, carbon and aramid." Recently, continuous basalt fibers have become 8
commercially available as an alternative to fiberglass. " The basalt rebar mentions in this
document and is attached to some tables, but the key point is that it is classified as FRP. 9
