An Experimental Study on Bond Property of Reinforced High Strength Concrete Beam

고강도 철근콘크리트 보의 부착특성에 관한 실험적 연구

The objective of this research is to examine whether the determination of development length for high strength concrete by the ACI Building Code 318-95 could be applied and the upped limit of compressive strength, 700kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ is suitable. Eight beam specimens were tested. Each beam was designed to include two bars in tension, spliced at the center of the span. The beams were loaded in positive bending with the splice in a constant moment region. The variables used here were compressive strength and the space of stirrup within splice length. The results indicated that for (c$\div$Ktr)/db of the range of 1.5-2.0 compressive strength up to 800kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ is acceptable with regard to bond strength and ductility, thus the limit of compressive strength in ACI 318-95 may be extended to 800kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$.
