Laminated bamboo and bamboo scrimber are value-added engineered forms of bamboo
produced in standard shape and size, with better physical and mechanical characteristics …

Steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) has been increasingly used during recent years.
Regarding bond of rebars to concrete, fibers provide passive confinement and improve bond …

The use of geopolymer concrete reinforced with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars is
anticipated to address the concerns on the usage of traditional reinforced concrete …

The current experimental study presents the results of bond strength loss (steel bar
concrete) due to the corrosion damage of steel bar specimens, semiembedded in concrete …

In the steel-FRP composite bar (SFCB) reinforced concrete filled in an outer FRP tube, the
bond behavior of SFCB in such FRP-confined concrete should differ from that in unconfined …

Tension stiffening is an important phenomenon in reinforced concrete because it controls
not only deflections but also crack spacings, crack widths and the formation of multiple …

This paper presents a three stage bond stress-slip relationship between rebar and concrete
under static and dynamic loads, with coordinate values at key points determined by an …

The bond-slip behavior at the steel-concrete interface plays a significant role in the
performance of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. In the past few decades, there has been …

Ultrahigh performance concrete (UHPC) is increasingly making its way into the construction
field. Characterization of UHPC has therefore received much-needed attention in the …

Previous research on steel bar-concrete bond behaviour has been concentrated mostly on
the intact concrete without considering initial cracks induced by transverse tensile loading …
