Abstract

The present research deals with the cyclic and standard pull-out resistance of deformed steel bars embedded in lightweight and normal concrete. This paper is a continuation of a previous paper, where the experimental results are detailed. In the present paper, the experimental results are set against the formulas and the diagrams provided by the Eurocode standard and the Model Code 1990, and then a comparative discussion is performed. In the case of cyclic loading, the damage defined by the Palmgren–Miner hypothesis, as well based on the recommendations of various national annexes of Eurocode and the Model Code, is calculated. A multiplier corresponding to the maximum load is calculated, which indicates by how much the applied load should be multiplied to obtain a damage value equal to 1.
