Examination of high strength steel design provisions : bond by Chua, Aye Neng

“…Furthermore, as yield strength of reinforcement steel embedded in concrete is equally important on the bond strength, a study is carried out using specimens data with normal strength steel and high strength steel to examine the provision of development length in each category of steel. Five international codes were used to predict the development length, and the codes provisions were compared against the experimental values. …”
