In this paper, corrosion percentages ranged from 0 to 7.62% of steel rebar for pulling out specimens was controlled by the accelerated method of electrochemistry. According to the RILEM standard, pulling out test with dimensions of 200×200×200mm3 and recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) of C30 was carried out, and the load versus slip curves between RAC and corroded steel rebars with different corrosion percentages were recorded. Based on the experimental results, the effect of RAC and reinforcement corrosion on the bond behaviour between steel rebars was investigated. The results show that the bond strength between RAC and deformed bars increases with corrosion up to a certain amount, and then the bond strength decreases as the corrosion rate further increases, which is similar to that of normal concrete. However, the decreasing rate of the bond strength between RAC and corroded steel rebars is much faster than that between normal concrete and corroded steel bars. According to the testing results, the relationship of bond stress-slip between corroded bars and RAC was given in the end.

This paper investigates the effect of recycled coarse aggregate incorporation on the relationship between 150 mm cubic and Փ 150 mm cylindrical compressive strength (the reference strength of standards) by comparing data from recycled and natural aggregate concrete compositions in which both cubes and cylinders were tested. A conversion factor from cubic to cylindrical strength is proposed in two versions: A deterministic and a probabilistic one. Such factor has not been studied before and researchers have been converting cubic data as if natural aggregate concrete were tested. The probabilistic factor is intended for reliability analyses on the structural behaviour of recycled aggregate concrete using data from laboratory cube tests. It was found that the incorporation of recycled coarse aggregates sourced from concrete waste significantly decreases the expected value of the factor but the factor’s scatter is relatively unaffected.

In order to research the interface bond-slip behaviors of recycled aggregate concrete-filled square steel tube (RACFSST), ten specimens using waste concrete were designed for launch test. The three changing parameters were concrete strength grade, embedded length and recycled coarse aggregate replacement rate. The load–slip curves of square steel tubes and recycled aggregate concrete were obtained, and starting bond strength and ultimate bond strength influenced by each changing parameter were analyzed. The results show that the replacement rate had a slight influence on the starting bond strength and ultimate bond strength, while the embedded length had the opposite effect. The shorter embedded length specimens had larger bond strength. The concrete strength had a relatively large influence on them.
