  1. 1. Bond and Anchorage of Ribbed Bars in High-Strength Concrete

    Author : Jonas Magnusson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; non-linear finite element analysis; high-strength concrete; anchorage; ribbed bars; beam tests; bond; confinement; normal strength concrete; pull-out tests;

    Abstract : For structural utilisation of high-strength concrete, a good understanding of the bond and anchorage behaviours of ribbed bars in this specific material is essential. The research project aims to increase the knowledge of bond and anchorage behaviours of ribbed bars in high-strength concrete. READ MORE

  2. 2. Three-Dimensional Modelling of Bond in Reinforced Concrete Theoretical Model, Experiments and Applications

    Author : Karin Lundgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; three-dimensional analysis; splitting effects; bond; finite element analysis; reinforced concrete; pull-out tests; non-linear fracture mechanics; frame corners; splicing of reinforcement; cyclic loading;

    Abstract : The bond mechanism between deformed bars and concrete is known to be influenced by multiple parameters, such as the strength of the surrounding structure, the occurrence of splitting cracks in the concrete and the yielding of the reinforcement. However, when reinforced concrete structures are analysed using the finite element method, it is quite common to assume that the bond stress depends solely on the slip. READ MORE

  3. 3. Structural Behaviour of Deteriorated Concrete Structures

    Author : Kamyab Zandi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; FE analysis; concrete; stirrup; corrosion; bond; pull-out test; frost;

    Abstract : A growing concern for better assessment of existing concrete structures has revealed a need for improved understanding of the structural effects of deterioration. The two most common causes of deterioration in concrete structures are freezing of the concrete and corrosion of the reinforcement. READ MORE

  4. 4. Experimental investigation of steel cables for rock reinforcement in hard rock

    Author : Bengt Stillborg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mining and Rock Engineering; Gruv- och Berganläggningsteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis describes a detailed experimental investigation of the mechanical behaviour of fully grouted steel cables used for rock reinforcement in hard rock. An attempt is also made to explain the possible modes of deformation and cable failure, based on observations from the experiments. READ MORE

  5. 5. A theory of bond applied to overlapped tensile reinforcement splices for deformed bars

    Author : Ralejs Tepfers; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Concrete; splitting failures; confinement; deformed bars; tensile overlap splices; bond theory; fatigue; concrete cover splitting; reinforcement;

    Abstract : A bond theory for deformed reinforcing bars in concrete is elaborated taking into account different stages in development of final rupture occurring as splitting or pull-out. The concrete cover splitting resistance is modelled for a thick-walled concrete ring in elastic and plastic stages. Different final possible failure modes are analysed. READ MORE
