AbstractThe article describes an experimental study on the bond–slip performance between the pultruded glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) tube and the nano-CaCO3 concrete. Taking the nano-CaCO3 concrete strength and GFRP tube thickness as primary parameters, nine specimens were designed and tested to study the influence of these parameters on the bond strength of the specimens. Besides, three specimens filled with the ordinary concrete were also tested by using the push-out tests to make comparisons with the bond performance of the specimens filled with nano-CaCO3 concrete. A total of four push-out tests were conducted on each specimen. The experimental results indicate that there are two types of axial load–slip curves for each specimen in four push-out tests. Moreover, comparison of the results of the push-out tests in the same direction shows that the bond failure load of the specimen decreases with the increase in the number of push-out tests. Based on the analysis of the test results, it is shown that the bond performance between the GFRP tube and the nano-CaCO3 concrete is better than that between the GFRP tube and the ordinary concrete. Furthermore, as the nano-CaCO3 concrete strength increases, the bond strength of the specimens decreases, indicating that the concrete strength has a negative effect on the bond strength. When the nano-CaCO3 concrete strength is relatively smaller (C20), the bond strength of the specimens decreases with the increase in the thickness of the GFRP tube. However, when the nano-CaCO3 concrete strength is relatively larger (C30 and C40), the bond strength of the specimens increases as the thickness of the GFRP tube increases.

Purpose The calculation of the crack width is necessary for the design of prestressed concrete (PC) members. The purpose of this paper is to develop a numerical model based on the bond-slip theory to calculate the crack width in PC beams. Design/methodology/approach Stress calculation method for common reinforcement after beam crack has occurred depends on the difference in the bonding performance between prestressed reinforcement and common reinforcement. A numerical calculation model for determining the crack width in PC beams is developed based on the bond-slip theory, and verified using experimental data. The calculation values obtained by the proposed numerical model and code formulas are compared, and the applicability of the numerical model is evaluated. Findings The theoretical analysis and experimental results verified that the crack width of PC members calculated based on the bond-slip theory in this study is reasonable. Furthermore, the stress calculation method for the common reinforcement is verified. Compared with the model calculation results obtained in this study, the results obtained from code formulas are more conservative. Originality/value The numerical calculation model for crack width proposed in this study can be used by engineers as a reference for calculating the crack width in PC beams to ensure the durability of the PC member.

This paper presents the results of an experimental research designed to investigate the combined effects of corrosion rate, concrete cover thickness, and stirrup spacing on the bond performance between reinforcement and concrete of reinforced concrete (RC) specimens. The RC specimens were immersed into sodium chloride solution to eliminate the passivation film on reinforcement. Then, an accelerated corrosion method was applied to corrode reinforcement embedded in concrete specimens. Pullout test was carried out to establish empirical formulas for ultimate slip and ultimate bond strength of RC specimens with three different corrosion rates, different concrete cover thicknesses, and different stirrup spacings. In addition, the bond-slip relation model was developed to predict and evaluate the bond performance of RC specimens. Finally, the ultrasonic technology was used to detect the damage of RC specimens, and the corresponding nonlinear coefficient β was proposed to characterize the damage degree of RC specimens. The susceptibility of β on the damage of specimens was compared with that of ultrasonic velocity, indicating β was more appropriate to evaluate the damage of RC specimens.

An analytical method, by which hysteretic restoring force characteristics of unbonded prestressed concrete framed structure can be statically pursued on the basis of material properties, is presented. The bond-slip relationship between concrete and prestressing tendon is taken into account, and thus the method covers unbonded members and bonded members. For verifying the propriety of the analytical method, the experiment is carried out on a portal frame with an unbonded prestressed concrete beam of 4.2 m in length and reinforced concrete columns of 1 m in height. High intensity reversed cyclic lateral loading is applied. The experimental results show a good agreement with the analytical ones in terms of load-deflection relation and the fluctuation of the tendon stress at anchorage end.

To study the deterioration of bond performance between concrete and corroded steel bars with designed corrosion levels of 0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 5.0%, 8.0%, and 10.0%, pull-out tests were performed on cube specimens with the dimensions of 10 D × 10 D × 10 D, where D is the diameter of longitudinal rebars ( D = 14, 20, and 25 mm, respectively). The experimental results indicated that with the specimen dimensions increased, the expansive cracks induced by corrosion products appeared earlier and the maximum expansive cracking width was larger at the same corrosion levels. The bond strength and the initial bond stiffness first increased and then dramatically decreased as the concrete deterioration and reinforcement corrosion levels increased for each specimen dimension, whereas the specimens with the larger diameter ( D = 25 mm) were more sensitive to the corrosion than those with the smaller diameter ( D = 14, 20 mm). The free-end slip and the energy dissipation for each specimen dimensions, which decreased slowly with increasing corrosion levels before the corrosion-induced cracks and then weakened rapidly when the corrosion-induced cracks appeared, was almost independent of the influence on corrosion levels after the corrosion-induced cracks appeared. Based on the experimental results, a simplified expression for the calculation of residual bond stress and an empirical model of the bond–slip constitutive equation that considers the influence of reinforcement corrosion were proposed, which can be used in finite element analysis of corroded reinforced concrete.

A precast concrete structure reinforced by steel-fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite bars (SFCBs) shows good durability and controllable post-yield stiffness, which makes this kind of structure suitable for marine infrastructure. The connection technology is one of the critical issues of a precast concrete structure with hybrid reinforcement. This paper presents an experimental study on the bond-slip testing (27 pullout specimens) of composite bars connected by a grouted deformed pipe splice (GDPS) connector with different bond lengths. The reinforcement included SFCBs and pure FRP bars. The test results showed that the failure modes could be classified into three categories: rebar pullout before or after the inner steel bar yielded, rupture of the FRP wrapped on the SFCB, and mixed failure of bar pullout with a partial fiber fracture. The average bond strength of the ordinary steel bar was approximately 146.8% that of the SFCB connector with the same anchored length. When the anchored length of the SFCB specimen was 15 d ( d: bar diameter), the specimen could be fully anchored to fracture. An explicit hardening bond-slip model considering the post-yield stiffness of the SFCB was used to predict the bond-slip behavior of the GDPS connector, and the experimental and analytical results agreed well with each other, which demonstrates that the proposed model could provided a reference for the analysis and design of connectors for SFCB-reinforced precast concrete structures.
