Using recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) in steel-reinforced concrete structure is an effective way to eliminate the adverse effects of recycled aggregate, which has an excellent application prospect. Fire has a great destructiveness to steel-reinforced recycled aggregate concrete (SRRAC) structure; hence, the bond performance of SRRAC after high temperature, as the prerequisite for the composite between steel and RAC, is the key problem for structural safety and the corresponding safety assessment after fire. In this article, the residual bond behaviors of steel-recycled aggregate concrete interface after different high temperatures and spraying water cooling were studied through the push-out test. The failure modes and load–slip curves were examined. The ultimate bond strength, residual bond strength, and elastic bond shear stiffness of specimens after high temperature and cooling for the regime of spraying water were evaluated and compared to that of natural air. A parametric analysis of temperature, replacement percentage, and studs was conducted. A calculation approach for the ultimate bond strength and residual bond strength of SRRAC after high temperature was developed based on the sensitive analysis of gray system theory and regression analysis. Results showed that the bond properties of SRRAC specimens after high temperature were decreased as exposure temperature increased. The cooling regime of spraying water has a more significant influence on the ultimate strength and residual strength than that of natural air. The specimens with studs on both flange and web have the highest bond properties after high temperature. In all the factors, the number of studs showed the largest gray relational degree to the bond strength of SRRAC. The developed approach provided a reliable prediction of bond strength for SRRAC after high temperature.

In order to study the mechanical properties of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) specimens after exposure to high temperatures, 120 RAC prism specimens, 57 reinforced recycled aggregate concrete (RRAC) specimens, and 56 steel reinforced recycled aggregate concrete (SRRAC) specimens were designed, involving two varying parameters such as recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) replacement percentage and temperature. The performance degradation of RCA materials, RRAC members, and SRRAC members after exposure to high temperatures was analyzed in depth. The research results show that after exposure to high temperatures the surface color of members may change from cinereous to gray-white. Some cracks may appear on surface of members and the mass of members may be lighter. With the increase of the experiencing temperatures, the bearing capacity (compressive, bending, and shearing) of RAC and its members are reduced, but their ductility and energy dissipation capacity have little effect on the change of high temperature. With the increase of the RCA replacement percentage, the mass loss ratio, ultimate bearing capacity, and peak deformation of each RAC and its members increase slightly, and the displacement ductility and energy dissipation capacity of the RRAC members decrease slightly. With the increase in replacement percentage of RCA, mechanical properties of RAC and their members have little effect after exposure to elevated temperatures, and the fluctuation range is within 20%.
