description The paper presents the study on bond behaviour of steel bars. It reports the research conducted on local bond strength of short length specimens in high performance concrete (HPC) and basalt fibre reinforced high performance concrete (BFRHPC). In this study, the basalt fibre volume content, concrete cover, bar diameter and rib geometry are the main parameters. Further important factors are the directions of the casting and loading. Determining the effect of aforementioned main parameters on the bond strength in test series is required, in order to design reinforced HPC structures. The study of local bond strength in HPC and BFRHPC with five different basalt fibre fractions included tests of seventy-two short length specimens, using two concrete cover and two diameters of steel bars with different rib face angles. For different ranges of BFRHPC strength, relationships for bond strength with respect to the splitting tensile strength were obtained. The bond strength increased with the splitting tensile strength and compressive strength of BFRHPC specimens with the 12 mm and 16 mm bar respectively. The bond strength of BFRHPC was lower for the bar with the greater distances between the lugs on the bar.
