Abstract

In this study, a quantitative estimation for influence of lapped splices on the residual flexural strength and failure behavior of RC beams with corroded reinforcement was carried out. As a result, it is noted that residual flexural strength of RC beams with lapped splices decreases greatly and failure behavior is different from that of RC beams without lapped splices. Moreover, in the detailed prediction of the flexural behavior, it is pointed out that it is necessary to introduce corrosive crack characteristics by comparing the experimental results between RC beams with lapped splices and without lapped splices.
