This paper presents an experimental study of a novel composite structure used in prefabricated bridges. Corrugated pipes were used to improve the interface bond performance of the structure because of their excellent stiffening effect on the grouting material. Interface bond performance of overlap joints within corrugated pipes was explored by the load-displacement curve and load-strain curves. Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) and high-strength mortar were used as grouting materials. The diameter of steel bars, UHPC, high-strength mortar, strength grades of surrounded concrete, anchorage length, the diameter of the corrugated pipe, and lap length was taken as influential factors. Twenty specimens were designed for the pull-out test by using a larger cover thickness. The failure modes and the influence of different influential factors on the interface bond strength of each specimen were analyzed. The results show that the bond performance between UHPC and reinforcement was better than that of high-strength mortar and normal concrete, which can effectively improve the bond strength and reduce the basic anchorage length of reinforcement besides the design size of prefabricated members. In addition, the differences in anchorage length and lap length between the corrugated pipe grouting reinforcement were compared to the different specifications and prefabricated concrete members. Combined with the test phenomenon and analysis results, it is suggested that the anchorage length and lap length of connecting reinforcement should be reconsidered. Furthermore, the grouting effect under different diameters of corrugated pipe and reinforcement were compared. It is recommended that the corrugated pipe diameter should be four times that of the overlapping grouting reinforcement.

Structures located in seismic zones require significant ductility. It is necessary to examine the bond slip characteristics of high strength concrete under cyclic loading. The cyclic bond of high strength concrete is investigated under different parameters, including load history, confining reinforcement, bar diameter, concrete strength, and the rate of pull out. The bond strength, cracking, and deformation are highly dependent on the bond slip behavior between the rebar and the concrete under cyclic loading. The results of cyclic testing indicate that an increase in cyclic displacement will lead to more severe bond damage. The slope of the bond stress – displacement curve can describe the influence of the rate of loading on the bond strength in a cyclic test. Specimens with steel confinement sustained a greater number of cycles than the specimens without steel confinement. It has been found that the maximum bond strength increases with an increase in concrete strength. Cyclic loading does not affect the bond strength of high strength concrete as long as the cyclic slip is less than the maximum slip for monotonic loading. The behavior of high strength concrete under a cyclic load is slightly different from that of normal strength concrete.Key words: bond, high strength, cyclic loading, bar spacing, loading rate, failure mechanism.

High-strength concrete (HSC) is widely used in engineering due to its high strength and durability. However, because of its low water-to-cement ratio, external curing water hardly enters the dense internal structure of HSC so that high self-desiccation shrinkage often takes place. As a result, superabsorbent polymers (SAP) are added as an internal curing material to effectively reduce the shrinkage of high-performance concrete. Meanwhile, the bond performance between reinforcing steel and SAP HSC concrete remains unknown. In this paper, the bond performance of HSC mixed with SAP is studied by pull-out tests, and the results were obtained as follows: (1) the bond strength of HSC mixed with SAP increased first and then decreased with the increase of SAP content; (2) the slip at ultimate bond strength of HSC with SAP decreased with the increase of compressive strength; (3) a prediction model of the stress-slip relationship between steel rebars and HSC was established.

There exist the problems such as low bond strength and bad durability in the ordinary grouting slurry of the ground anchor system at present. The high-performance grouting mediums RPC (Reactive Powder Concrete) and DSP (Densified Systems containing homogeneously arranged ultrafine Particles) would become the potential replacement of grouting medium in ground anchor resulting from their high compressive strength, durability and toughness. Based on a series of pull-out tests on ground anchors with different high-performance grouting medium of RPC and DSP , different bond length in the construction field, the bond performance on the interfaces between anchor bolt (deformed steel bar) and grouted medium as well as between grouted medium and rock mass was studied. The results indicate that the interfacial bond strength between RPC or DSP and deformed steel bolt ranges within 23-31Mpa, far greater than that (about 2-3MPa) between the ordinary cementitious grout and deformed steel bar. Even though the interfacial bond strength between the grouted medium and rock mass of limestone was not obtained in the test since the failure mode was pull-out of those steel bar rather than the interface shear failure between grouted medium and rock mass, the bond stress on the interface reached 6.2-8.38 MPa, also far greater than the bond strength (about 0.1-3MPa) between the ordinary cementitious slurry and rocks.

Currently, large infrastructures (bridges, highways, etc.) are designed for more than 100 years. To achieve long service life, coated rebars (mostly, cement polymer composite (CPC) coated rebars) are being used to enhance the corrosion resistance. However, inadequately coated rebars can lead to premature corrosion. This can also affect the bond between the rebar and the concrete. To assess the effect of CPC coating on bond strength, pull-out specimens of (150×150×100) mm with 12 mm diameter rebar with 100 mm embedded length were cast and tested. For this, three replica specimens with two types of reinforcement namely, i) Uncoated steel ii) CPC coated steel were cast. To induce corrosion, additional five specimens with CPC coated steel rebars were cast with premixed chloride and cured for 28 days. During the curing period, continuous monitoring of corrosion potential and rate was done and degree of corrosion was assessed. The effect of degree of corrosion on bond of steel-concrete-coating interface was quantified. The CPC coated rebars without corrosion exhibited 10% bond reduction. CPC coated rebars with corrosion exhibited 30-70% reduction in bond strength. Also, the corrosion is found to adversely influence the stiffness of the bond.

Different retrofitting techniques are commonly used to sustain the design life of heavy damage and deteriorated concrete structures, whilst epoxy-bonded carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) has emerged as a widely known retrofitting method. Consequently, a sound understanding of the bond strength between structural lightweight concrete (LWC) and CFRP based on influential factors is essential in safety and economic requirements. In this study, a hybrid bond strength model using the artificial neural network (ANN) and genetic algorithm (GA) was developed to furtherly understand the bond of a CFRP strengthened LWC structure. ANN was able to establish under satisfactory performance the relationship between the maximum bond load and the following influential parameters: width of CFRP (bfrp), total CFRP bond length (Lfrp), CFRP thickness (tfrp), and CFRP angle of orientation (θfrp). Furthermore, GA was able to derive the optimal configuration of the influential parameters resulted in high bond performance. Moreover, the optimization results also validated the sensitivity of each parameter on the interfacial bond behavior between LWC and CFRP.

Steel Strand

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) material, a new type of cement-based composite material, is usually employed in the bridge engineering. The transfer and anchorage length of steel strand in UHPC material is different from that in ordinary concrete; nevertheless, few design standards are found that how to anchor the transfer and anchoring length of steel strand in UHPC material under normal curing. Through central pull-out test under the different conditions of protective layer thickness and embedded length, the load-slip curves, failure modes, and bond strength of 36 UHPC material specimens under normal curing were studied. The experimental results showed that the ultimate bond stress between UHPC material and steel strand under natural curing conditions is 7.01∼11.68 MPa. When the compressive strength of cube was 157 MPa; the bond strength under natural curing was smaller than that under thermal curing; when the thickness of the protective layer of steel strand with a diameter of 15.2 mm is greater than 30 mm, it had a little influence on bond strength. The regression analysis of the test results based on the experimental results proves that the recommended formulas for the design of transfer length and anchorage length of steel strand in UHPC material were in great agreement with the results of published studies.

Abstract To begin with, the intorduction of this paper summarises literature sources that wrongly interpret results of the bond strength between hot-dip galvanised reinforcements and concrete. The influence of the total reinforcement anchorage length on the bond strength results assessment was studied in detail. The numeric analysis of beam models with various testing anchorage lengths (the analysis input data comprised the results of previous bond strength tests carried out in a laboratory) unambiguously confirmed that when the bond strength between concrete and hot-dip galvanised reinforcement with a sufficient test anchorage length is tested in a beam test, the negative impact of the coating corrosion on bond strength with concrete may be biased. It is more objective to test bond strength with concrete in a pull-out test where a very short test reinforcement anchorage length is set out as a standard.
