Abstract
With the increasing application of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) in steel structure engineering, the bond-slip behavior between the two has attracted much attention. Firstly, 18 sets of CFRP sheet-Q690qD high-strength steel double strap shear specimens were fabricated considering the effects of CFRP sheet thicknesses and bond length. Then, static and fatigue tests were conducted on them. Subsequently, based on the 3D-DIC acquisition technology, the bond-slip curves were obtained using the smoothing method and the fitting method respectively Finally, the three key parameters of τmax, s1and sf in the bifurcated model at each working condition were obtained. The experimental results indicated that the bond length was positively correlated with the static load ultimate strength, while the thickness of the CFRP sheet had less effect on the ultimate strength. The fatigue life of the specimen with a bond length of 40 mm under equal stress ratio fatigue loading was much higher than that of the specimens with bond lengths of 60 mm and 80 mm. It was found that the fitting method had better stability and accuracy in fitting the bond-slip curves of CFRP sheet-Q690qD high-strength steel specimens. The accuracy of the fitting maximum bond load was above 80 %, which can provide a relevant basis for the subsequent numerical simulation calculation.
