Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is suitable for the durable rehabilitation and strengthening of deteriorated normal strength concrete (NSC) structures due to its excellent characteristics, such as superior compressive strength, high tensile capacity, and excellent bond properties. However, a successful repair depends on whether the UHPC-NSC interface can provide good bonding performance under various applied loads…
For the renovation of concrete structures, a post-installed reinforcement system is used to connect the existing and new concrete structures. In that application, hole drilling is carried out into the existing concrete, and then the reinforcements are inserted into the holes with adhesive material. The reason to propose this study because of construction need to…
Post-installed bundled reinforcement is used to connect the existing concrete with new concrete structures when the post-installed single reinforcement is not feasible. In this study, the assessment of the bond behavior of the post-installed bundled reinforce-ment is carried out using the finite element method (FEM). The study focused on evaluating the bond strength, and failure…
