Based on the experimental research on bond-slip performance, a mechanical model of short SRC column in pulling or pushing test is established. By means of the elasto-plasticity theory the explicit formulation of bond-slip constitutive relation τ-s in different anchor-hold place of push and pull member is investigated under the conditions of balance and boundary. The study shows that the constitutive relation is relevant to the embedment length and the thickness of concrete cover. The results are continuous descriptions of bond-slip constitutive relation and can be used to analyze the non-linear performance of SRC members. Results indicate that the principle of the method is correct and it performs well for short SRC column.展开更多

The development of the bond stress between bars and mortar was calculated. Test results show that the maximum bond-stress is not influenced by the bar bond length and increases as the increased splitting strength of mortar for block. The local bond stress-slip curve was obtained. Then,based on the regressive analysis of test data,two bond shearing stress-slip constitutive models between bars and mortar were proposed. The models can be used in the numerical simulation or finite element analysis and provide references for the improvement of the corresponding design codes.展开更多
