Abstract / Description of output
This paper presents an analytical solution for the debonding process of an FRP-to-concrete bonded Joint where the FRP is subject to tension at both ends. This bonded joint model closely approximates the debonding process of an FRP-to-concrete interface between two adjacent cracks in a flexurally strengthened reinforced concrete (RC) member. The interface is assumed to possess a linearly softening local bond-slip law. Expressions for the interfacial shear stress distributions and load-displacement responses are derived for different loading stages. The debonding process is discussed in detail. Finally, results from the analytical solution are presented to illustrate how the bond length and the left-to-right load ratio affect the behaviour of such bonded joints. The study has direct relevance to intermediate crack induced (IC) debonding failures in RC members flexurally-strengthened with a tension face FRP plate.
