Experimental investigation of bond behavior with tension lap splice for deformed steel bars in recycled aggregate concrete
Splice strength of deformed steel bars embedded in recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) was experimentally investigated using 48 bottom-cast scaled splice beam specimens detailed with unconfined contact lap splices and tested under four-point bending. The following variables were investigated: concrete grade (normal- and medium-strength), recycled concrete aggregate replacement level (0, 50, and 100%), rebar diameter (12 and 20 mm), splice length (15 and 25 db), rebar surface characteristics, and concrete cover to rebar diameter (c/db = 1.25 and 2). Bond behavior and failure modes were noted to be similar in the natural and in the RAC and a regression analysis of the results shows that f′c3/4 provides a good representation of the influence of RAC grade on splice strength. A descriptive bond strength equation has been proposed for RAC.
