Bond Properties of CFRP Externally Bonded Reinforcement on Groove in Concrete

Zehong Han, Jing Gao, Huaihui Song, Gongyi Xu

Abstract

Abstract Externally bonded reinforcement on groove (EBROG) is a significant reinforcement technology proposed by researchers to enhance the bond properties of reinforced concrete structural members. To understand the influence of groove size on concrete specimens of different strength, a total of 60 concrete specimens with 4 different strengths were cast with the single shear test in this paper, among which 48 EBROG specimens and 12 specimens with externally bonded reinforcement method (EBR) were used as the control group. The failure modes and failure mechanisms of specimens with various sizes and reinforcement methods were analyzed. Additionally, the test results of ultimate load, load–displacement curves, and bond-slip curves for specimens with different groove sizes were compared. The effectiveness of EBROG method in enhancing the ultimate load capacity at the bond interface of the specimens is proved. Furthermore, in situations where the volume of the groove was kept constant, the specimens with lower concrete strength and deeper groove exhibited superior bond properties. Also, the influence of groove width on bond properties was better than that of groove depth. Finally, the test results in this paper were compared with the prediction of the existing EBR and EBROG models to evaluate the performance of different models, and based on the original model, a prediction model for EBROG method in the groove region with higher accuracy was proposed.
