scholarly journals Bond Performance of Sand-Coated BFRP Bars to Concrete

This paper presents an experimental study on the bond behaviour of sand-coated basalt fibre reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars and conventional steel bars of 10mm- diameter. The bond strength of these bars were determined according to ASTM D7913/D7913M-14 standards. The pullout specimens consisted of BFRP bars embedded in concrete cubes (200mm on each side) with the compressive strength of 40MPa were constructed. The pullout test results contain the bond failure mode, the average bond strength , the slip at the free and loaded end, and the bond stress-slip relationship curves.The test results showed that the bond strength of sand-coated BFRP bars was about 70% that of the steel bars.

To improve practical application of modern bamboo structures, strengthening the bamboo engineering material is necessary to overcome insufficient stiffness. As an essential step in developing fibre-reinforced polymer–bamboo engineering material composite structures aimed at increasing the structural stiffness, the bonding behaviour at the interface of the fibre-reinforced polymer and bamboo engineering materials should be investigated in detail because currently there is a lack of research. In this article, bonding behaviour is studied between basalt fibre-reinforced polymer bar and bamboo engineering material including laminated and reconstituted bamboo and between basalt fibre-reinforced polymer sheets and laminated bamboo. Failure patterns are categorized, and the load–slip curves are discussed. Based on the failure pattern and strain variation, recommended bond lengths were proposed for the basalt fibre-reinforced polymer bar–bamboo engineering material and basalt fibre-reinforced polymer sheet–laminated bamboo composite specimens, respectively. In addition, a simplified three-phase bond–slip model was proposed for the basalt fibre-reinforced polymer bar–bamboo engineering material composite specimen.

Columns are the main load bearing element of a structure. Therefore, columns have an important function in many structures and can be vulnerable to exceptional loads. As structures age, the columns often have a lack of transverse reinforcement, which is unable to provide sufficient confinement to the concrete core or to prevent buckling of the longitudinal reinforcement which causes premature strength degradation of the column. The primary objectives of this research are to investigate the behaviour of axially loaded concrete columns confined with an obscure material in civil engineer for strengthening, basalt fibre reinforced polymer jacket (BFRP). This paper presents a test program that was done on concrete blocks confined with basalt fibre reinforced polymer (BFRP) and examination of its compression strength. The test results show that the strength enhancement of the concrete blocks consists of more ductile behaviour.

This paper presents laboratory test results on the mechanical properties and bond strength of new generation of carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) reinforcing bars used as nonprestressed reinforcement for concrete structures. Two types of CFRP reinforcing bars, namely, 9-mm-diameter CFRP ribbed bars and 9.5-mm-diameter CFRP sand-coated bars, were investigated. Tensile tests and pullout bond tests were conducted to evaluate the tensile properties and bond strength of the CFRP bars in comparison with that of the steel bar. Experimental results showed that the tensile stress-strain curves of the CFRP bars were linear up to failure. The ultimate tensile strength of the two types of CFRP bars was at least 1500 MPa, three times that of steel bars. The modulus of elasticity of two types of the CFRP bars was 128–145 GPa, about 65–75% that of steel. Furthermore, both types of the CFRP bars exhibited almost the same bond strength to concrete similar to steel bars. The minimum bond development length for the two types of CFRP bars seemed to be equal to about 20db for the sand-coated bars and 30db for the ribbed bars.Key words: fibre reinforced polymer (FRP), carbon FRP (CFRP), bar, mechanical properties, tensile strength, embedded length, pullout, bond strength, concrete structures.
