This type of bond allows for composite action and proper stress distribution within the structural element. The bond is influenced by several mechanical and chemical factors. Some of the mechanical factors that affect the bond strength are concrete compressive strength, reinforcement type, bar diameter, cover, and embedment length. The modern shift towards saving the environment makes it critical to study the behavior of more sustainable materials. In addition, utilizing different types of fibers to improve concrete flexural capacity, crack initiation and propagation creates a need for engineers and researchers to understand the behavior of fiber reinforced concrete. Furthermore, the codes and standards provide limited or no knowledge about advanced construction materials. Most of the standards deal with normal strength concrete (NSC) and lightweight concrete (LWC). This research investigates the bond behavior between steel reinforcement and self-consolidated concrete (SCC) containing normal weight aggregate and 100% recycled coarse aggregate. A cube pullout test was used to evaluate the bond strength of steel reinforcement and SCC concrete mixes. Parameters included in the study are the aggregate type, fiber type and steel bar diameter. 12mm and 25mm bar diameters and a volume fraction of 0.75% of steel and synthetic fibers were used to prepare 48 samples. In addition, samples were prepared to evaluate the concrete compressive strength, modulus of elasticity and flexural strength. The results showed that the recycled aggregate concrete can have a similar performance to that of normal weight aggregate concrete. Moreover, the addition of steel fibers improved the bond behavior for all concrete types reinforced with the 25mm rebar due to the crack control properties. All the 12mm rebar samples failed due to steel yielding and all the 25mm rebar samples failed due to concrete splitting. Furthermore, it was found that the proposed analytical models from the literature show a large variation and cannot be used efficiently to describe the behavior of SCC.College of EngineeringDepartment of Civil EngineeringMaster of Science in Civil Engineering (MSCE)Yehia, SherifElchalakani, Mohamed2023-08-29T07:54:42Z2023-08-29T07:54:42Z2023-04info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesisapplication/pdf35.232-2023.08http://hdl.handle.net/11073/25309en_USoai:repository.aus.edu:11073/253092026-04-30T09:26:09Z |
