Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of building structure test, in particular to a test method and device for the bonding performance between FRP bars and concrete. BACKGROUND

[0002] Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) bars have been widely concerned and applied in engineering field due to their excellent performance. Compared with traditional steel bars, FRP bars have higher tensile strength, better corrosion resistance, lighter self-weight and better fatigue resistance. Good bonding performance can ensure the effective transmission of stress between FRP bars and concrete, so as to fully exert the high strength advantage of FRP bars and improve the overall bearing capacity and durability of the structure.

[0003] At present, the bonding performance test method mostly adopted is the pull-out test. The basic principle of this method is to make a cuboid concrete test block, and embed FRP bars in the test block according to the set bonding length. The bonding strength and bonding failure mode between FRP bars and concrete are tested by applying axial tensile load to the FRP bars. Although the pull-out test method has been widely applied in practical engineering, it also has certain limitations, especially the traditional pull-out test working condition is different from the actual stress state of FRP bars in FRP concrete members, and the experimental results have certain deviation. Therefore, the bonding force test method close to the actual stress state of the real member is becoming the development trend in this research field.

[0004] To solve the shortcomings of the pull-out test, a beam member more in line with the actual working condition can be used to study the bonding force between FRP bars and concrete. CN109856046A proposes to form a beam member by using two half-beam concrete and one full-length steel bar, placing a steel hinge in the two L-shaped grooves reserved on the upper part of the two half-beam concrete to form a beam member, and testing the bonding performance between the steel bar and the concrete by four-point loading test on the beam member through two spherical hinges. This method solves the problem that the stress state of the steel bar and the concrete in the pull-out bonding test does not conform to the actual situation, and the force arm is clear during the loading process, which is convenient for calculating the pull-out force. However, this technical solution also has some shortcomings: (1) The steel hinge is placed in the groove of the concrete test piece, and the fitting degree of its contact surface with the concrete will have certain error, and the overall stress performance of the concrete test piece during the stress process is poor, which affects the test results. (2) Considering that the elastic modulus of FRP bars is smaller than that of steel bars, a larger deformation will occur during the stretching process, and the deformation of the FRP bar beam hinge test piece is larger, which will hinder the deformation of the beam member and cause deviation between the stress condition of the test piece and the mechanical calculation model, affecting the accuracy of the test results.

[0005] The present application aims to provide an improved test method and device to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, improve the accuracy of FRP bar and concrete bonding performance test, and provide new ideas and methods for the development of building structure test technology.
