Abstract
In this paper, post-heating bond behavior between high-grade rebar and C80 high-strength concrete (hereafter, HSC) is studied. The high-grade rebar is HRBF500 fine grained steel with a yield strength of 500MPa and the concrete grade C80 denotes compressive strength not lower than 80MPa. First, the residual mechanical behavior of both high-grade rebar and HSC were tested after fire exposure. Second, the beam bond test was carried out to study the bond behavior between high-grade rebar and HSC after exposed heating at 200°C, 400°C, 500°C and 600°C, respectively. During the bond test, the influence of temperature, bond length, and some construction measurements on the bond–slip behavior were compared and evaluated. The investigation demonstrates that (1) the bond strength between high-grade rebar and HSC decreases while the peak slip increases with the elevated temperature, especially when the temperature exceeds 400°C and (2) the confinement effect of steel wire mesh can help to improve rebar׳s bond behavior. Third, the bond–slip model between high-grade rebar and HSC for post-heating is proposed.
