Externally bonded reinforcing technique with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) has been widely used in civil engineering. The performance of the interface between FRP and concrete is one of the key factors affecting the behavior of the strengthened structures. This paper presents a detailed study on the bond-slip mechanism between carbon fiber laminate (CFL) and concrete based on double-shear tests. 8 specimens with different bonded length and width of CFL were tested under static loading. Strain gauges along the CFL face and displacement sensor were used to measure longitudinal strains and slip of the interface. The bond-slip constitutive relation of the interface between CFL and concrete was analyzed with the testing results. Compared with four different bond-slip models, a shear stress-slip model was proposed based on the experimental data.

Although the use of fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars to replace steel in reinforced concrete is becoming more common, uncertainty remains concerning the long-term performance of FRP, including the effect of a sustained load on the bond between the FRP bars and the concrete. An experimental study was therefore undertaken to investigate the long-term durability of the bond for various types of bars embedded in concrete: one type of glass FRP, two types of carbon FRP, and conventional steel reinforcing bars. Pullout specimens were tested both statically to failure and under sustained loads for periods of up to 1 year while free-end slip was monitored. Results revealed lower short-term bond strengths for FRP bars relative to steel and significant variability in long-term bond-slip performance among FRP bars of different types. Post-testing investigations revealed damage to bar surfaces at the macroscopic level, as well as broken longitudinal fibres and damage to the surface coatings at the microscopic level.Key words: reinforced concrete, fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP), bond, creep, pullout, sustained loads.

A new finite element model for reinforced concrete beam-column joints is proposed. The model considers the effects of bond-slip and shear deformations in the joint panel region. The problems associated with modeling bond-slip of anchored reinforcing bars are discussed. The proposed bond-slip model is examined at the element level by comparing its predictions with other analytical and experimental results. The ability of the model to simulate bond deterioration and eventual pullout of anchored reinforcing bars under severe cyclic excitation is demonstrated. This model is incorporated into the global beam-column joint element. Further comparisons are made between the predictions of the proposed beam-column joint model and other analytical and experimental results under reversed cyclic loading to show the validity of the model to describe the bond-slip behavior of the joints.Key words: bond, bond-slip, finite element, beam-column, reinforced concrete, cyclic.

To evaluate the bond behavior between the reinforcing bar and surrounding concrete, a total of six-group pullout specimens with plain steel bars and two-group specimens with deformed steel bars, serving as a reference, are experimentally investigated and presented in this study. The main test parameters of this investigation include embedment length, surface type of reinforcing bars, and bar diameter. In particular, the bond mechanism of plain steel reinforcing bars against the surrounding concrete was analyzed by comparing with six-group pullout specimens with aluminium alloy bars. The results indicated that the bond stress experienced by plain bars is quite lower than that of the deformed bars given equal structural characteristics and details. Averagely, plain bars appeared to develop only 18.3% of the bond stress of deformed bars. Differing from the bond strength of plain steel bars, which is based primarily on chemical adhesion and friction force, the bond stress of aluminium alloy bars is mainly experienced by chemical adhesion and about 0.21~0.56 MPa, which is just one-tenth of that of plain steel bars. Based on the test results, a bond-slip model at the interface between concrete and plain bars is put forward.

Bond between steel and concrete in reinforced concrete structures plays a fundamental role. The stress transfer mechanism depends on the condition of the contact surface between the two materials, the mechanical characteristics of concrete near the rebar and on the available level of confinement. Corrosion of reinforcing bars in concrete structures modifies those three factors. Because of corrosion, on the rebar surface a granular oxide layer is present and with its expansion it generates a significant radial pressure; consequently tensile stresses grow till cracking of the concrete cover with a subsequent reduction of the confinement effect. Moreover the presence of a mechanical action modifies the resisting mechanism producing an increasing damage. In this study, a model is presented for the numerical simulation of experimental tests on r.c. ties subjected to mechanical action; furthermore some considerations on reinforced concrete ties subjected also to corrosion effect are reported. From those analyses it is possible to estimate a modified bond-slip law between the reinforcing bars and the concrete, in order to take into account the level of damage.
