Abstract
Studying the bond stress-slip relationship between concrete and corroded steel bar by cutting the steel bars into two separate parts and attaching electric strain gauges in the slots is no longer suitable. To overcome the disadvantages of electric strain gauges in the measuring the stress of corroded steel bars, this paper introduced a new kind of FBG sensor measuring steel stress. By calibration tests, the proportion coefficient between variation of wavelength and steel strain was confirmed as 0.0012. The bond behavior between concrete and steel bar was also investigated by performing pullout tests on beam end specimens.
