Bond Behavior of Recycled Fiber Recycled Concrete with Reinforcement after Freeze-Thaw Cycles

Freeze-thaw (F-T) damage is the major factor destroying the bond behavior of reinforced concrete in the cold areas of China. The bond behavior between recycled fiber recycled concrete (RFRC) and reinforcement after F-T cycles was investigated in this paper. The pull-out tests were undertaken with th...

description Freeze-thaw (F-T) damage is the major factor destroying the bond behavior of reinforced concrete in the cold areas of China. The bond behavior between recycled fiber recycled concrete (RFRC) and reinforcement after F-T cycles was investigated in this paper. The pull-out tests were undertaken with the replacement rate (0, 50%, and 100%) of recycled aggregates (RA) and volume content (0, 0.12%, and 0.24%) of recycled fibers (RFs) as test variables. The results demonstrate that the F-T cycles will reduce the bond strength between RFRC and reinforcement. Bond strength decreases by 69.41% after 150 cycles. Moreover, RF can improve the bond strength between RFRC and reinforcing steel. Bonding strength increases by 11.35% with the addition of 0.12% RF. A simplified two-phase bond-slip model between RFRC and reinforced steel after F-T cycles was eventually established, and it correlated well with the experimental results. This research presents a theoretical basis for the application of RFRC in building structures in cold areas.
