Mechanical Performance and Stress–Strain Relationships for Grouted Splices Under Tensile and Cyclic Loadings

Feng Lin, Xiaobao Wu

Abstract

Experimental studies were conducted on 36 grouted splices to investigate their mechanical performance under four loading schemes: (1) incremental tensile loading, (2) repeated tensile loading, (3) cyclic loading at high stress, and (4) cyclic loading at large strain. Load-deformation responses of the grouted splices under cyclic loadings were featured with pinching effect and stiffness degradation compared to those responses under tensile loadings. The shape of the hysteresis loops of load-deformation curves was similar to that under incremental tensile loading. For the purpose of structural analysis, stress–strain relationships were presented for grouted splices under various loadings.
