This paper presents an experimental study on the behavior of shear connectors embedded in steel-reinforced concrete joints. In steel-reinforced concrete joints, the shear connectors are commonly used to transfer longitudinal shear forces across the steel-concrete interface. Further, in Japan, some studies in recently have also been undertaken to apply perfobond rib shear connector (PBL), which is a type of shear connectors developed in civil engineering, to the steel-reinforced concrete joints in building structures. To clarify the influence of the arrangement methods of headed studs and PBLs to reinforced concrete member on the joints, T-shaped subassembrages were tested under the monotonic tensil loading.This experiment is constituted of the following; Exp. I: Bond strength across the steel-concrete interface. Exp. II: Arrangement methods of these shear connectors to reinforced concrete member. The following can be drawn from the test results 1) The experimental values of the average maximum and residual bond strength are 0.230-0.280 and 0.15-0.18 N/mm2, respectively. 2) When the distance of between the upper surface of the reinforced concrete member from the first layer for headed studs are small, the failure mode of the specimens is similar to a concrete-cone type failure. 3) In case that the total number of headed studs or the hole provided to PBL is the same, the maximum load of the specimen with the parallel arrangement is larger than that of when shear connecters are vertically arranged. 4) The shear strength of headed studs in the joints embedded the steel member in the reinforced concrete member is estimated by superposing the average residual bond strength across the steel-concrete interface.

The flexural behavior of concrete beams strengthened with near surface mounted (NSM) CFRP-PCPs composite rebars was studied. Experimental results showed that embedded CFRP-PCPs reinforcement method can effectively improve strength, stiffness and cracks of the reinforced concrete member, and PCPs increased with concrete bonding area, thus avoiding the strip damage of the traditional embedded reinforcement.

Concrete Interface

This research studies the effect of corrosion on bond strength at the steel-concrete interface in a reinforced concrete member. Bond stress, which can be defined as the shear stress which develops along the lateral surface of the bar, is expressed as a function of contact pressure at the steel-concrete interface. An analytical model of bond which describes the contact pressure between the reinforcing bar and concrete in a reinforced concrete member is developed. The expression for the reduction in contact pressure due to the accumulation of corrosion products is then developed using the model developed for the uncorroded reinforcing steel bar. The developed analytical model was implemented in a finite element analysis, which was conducted using ABAQUS, of pull-out specimens conducted by Amleh (2000). A reasonable good agreement between the experimental and finite element analysis results was obtained.

Performance Deterioration

Slip or debonding of bonding interface is the key cause of the performance degradation or failure of the reinforced concrete (RC) member. In this paper, based on Monte Carlo method, a mesoscopic finite element model composed of mortar, coarse aggregate and steel rebar was established to consider the mesoscopic damage on the bonding interface and its influence on macroscopic performance deterioration of RC specimen. The results show that the simulation results fit well with experimental data. Higher initial interfacial damage results in lower bonding strength and smaller final displacement. Higher mortar modulus could greatly improve the initial bonding property and bonding strength, but slightly increase the final damage. Compared with the RC specimen model with plain steel bar, the model with deformed steel bar shows a longer duration of nonlinear increase for drawing force and lower bonding strength. When confinement is applied, the coalescence of damage zones is prevented due to the effect of thread. Therefore, the application of confinement could increase the bonding strength and the initial bonding property.
