Bond strength behaviour in reinforced concrete members exposed to corrosive environment - An overview

Abstract

Bond resistance of reinforcing bars, embedded in concrete depends primarily on frictional resistance and mechanical interlock. Corrosion of rebars in concrete is one of the major problems in the durability criteria. Local bond stress slip relationship is generally adopted to determine the mechanical properties of the interface between re-bars and concrete. Therefore the attainment of satisfactory performance in bond is an important, aspect of the design and the detailing of reinforcement in structural components. In this paper an overview of factors affecting specimen geometry of bond strength and Types of bond tests were studied. 2013 CAFET-INNOVA TECHNICAL SOCIETY. All rights reserved.
