| Abstract | ||
| This paper evaluated the bond behavior between recycled crumb rubber (CR) concrete and fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) bar. An experimental study consisting of fifty-seven pull-out specimens with fine recycled crumb rubber aggregate content of 0%, 5%,10% and 15% was described. The results showed that recycled crumb rubber concrete pull-out specimens exhibited similar bond stress-slip curves, which had four stages: the micro-slip, concrete internal cracking, pullout and residual stages. The use of crumb rubber in concrete reduced the bond strength. The bond strength decreased with the increase of the compressive strength of recycled crumb rubber concrete. The type and content of recycled crumb rubber also affected the bond strength. The glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars tended to have stronger bonds than that of basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars. | ||
