Abstract
In this paper, an experimental study is conducted to gain insight into the bond behavior of ribbed fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bar in FRP-confined concrete. Various parameters, including the ratio of concrete cover to bar diameter, concrete strength, and FRP confinement level, are considered in this study. The test results demonstrate the effectiveness of FRP confinement in changing the bond failure mode of FRP bar from the concrete splitting to the pullout and improving bond ductility and strength. The bond response of ribbed FRP bar in FRP-confined concrete is characterized by three distinct stages: uncracked stage, cracking enhancement stage, and cracking degradation stage. The bond mechanism within each stage is elucidated. The study reveals that the normalized bond strength is distinctly influenced by the ratio of concrete cover to diameter and FRP confinement level, while concrete strength exhibits a negligible impact. Finally, the study proposes a novel model for predicting the bond strength of the ribbed FRP bar embedded in both unconfined and FRP-confined concrete.
期刊介绍:
Construction and Building Materials offers an international platform for sharing innovative and original research and development in the realm of construction and building materials, along with their practical applications in new projects and repair practices. The journal publishes a diverse array of pioneering research and application papers, detailing laboratory investigations and, to a limited extent, numerical analyses or reports on full-scale projects. Multi-part papers are discouraged.
Additionally, Construction and Building Materials features comprehensive case studies and insightful review articles that contribute to new insights in the field. Our focus is on papers related to construction materials, excluding those on structural engineering, geotechnics, and unbound highway layers. Covered materials and technologies encompass cement, concrete reinforcement, bricks and mortars, additives, corrosion technology, ceramics, timber, steel, polymers, glass fibers, recycled materials, bamboo, rammed earth, non-conventional building materials, bituminous materials, and applications in railway materials.
