Bond Strength Assessment of Post-Installed Single Reinforcement using Finite Element Analysis

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…

Assessment of Bond Behavior of Post-Installed Bundled Reinforcement using Finite Element Method

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…
