Especially for rough interfaces, shear stresses lead to crack openings with vertical displacements longitudinal strain develop in the reinforcing bars. If the reinforcement bars are sufficiently anchored at both sides […]
EK547
Response of the grouted vertical connectors was similar to the bond response of reinforcing bars in confined concrete. After the adhesion between the grout and the connector is lost, the […]
EK544
The distribution and magnitude of bond stresses along a bar are difficult to establish quantitatively. One problem is the progressive shifting of the bond distribution along the bar as bond […]

Bond between reinforcing bars and concrete is made up of three components: chemical adhesion, friction, and mechanical interlocking of bar lugs (ribs) with the surrounding concrete.
EK263
Proportioning reinforced concrete structural members by ultimate-strength design is based on the following assumptions: Strain in concrete is the same as in reinforcing bars at the same level, provided that […]
