Experimental study on- bond behavior between FRP and concrete

摘要

In this paper, two kinds of tests were designed to investigate and study the bond behavior between fiber-reinforced-plastic (FRP) and concrete. By newly designed double-shear test setup, the strain development and distribution in FRP plate was acquired. At the same time, the direct shear bond distribution was given and the effective bond length was suggested. Through a bending test on simply supported beam with an extended end, the strain and stress distribution of FRP plate in the negative moment zone were studied. Based on the test results, conclusions including the maximum effective bond length, the mean bond stress and the development length for flexural bond in the negative moment zone were presented. The effective bond length is about 100 mm and the mean bond stress is about 1.287 MPa. The development length for flexural bond in the negative moment zone is about 300 mm.
