Abstract

This research aimed to reveal the bond behavior and failure mechanism of varying size rebar embedded in concrete with inside pre-crack through a series of quasi-static/cyclic pull-out tests and real-time acoustic emissions monitoring (AE). The obtained AE signal density records of the tests provide potential usage for evaluate the safety of reinforced concrete (RC) structure subjected to cyclic load, as well as quantitative study in the remaining life of RC after earthquake or shake damage.
