Deterioration and Cracking in Reinforced Concrete Bridges
… corrosion products caused expansive pressure, splitting cracks and a progressive loss of rib interlock. The reduction in bond depended upon the widths of the cracks, irrespective of the levels of corrosion. Surface crack widths resulted in better indicators of corrosion-induced bond degradation …

Non-Contact Lap Splices in Geometrically Dissimilar Bridge Column to Drilled Shaft Connections
… splice distance yielded significant inclined cracks and splitting cracks in the non-contact lap splice zone. The angle of inclined cracks was observed to increase with increasing the non-contact splice distance. Furthermore, a three-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA) was performed on …

Zum Verbund- und Querkrafttragverhalten von Spannbetonträgern aus ultra-hochfestem Beton
… to transfer the prestressing force without splitting cracks. Using 0.5’’ strands the measured transfer lengths ranged approximately between 20 and 22 cm (7.9 and 8.7 in.). When several layers of strands were arranged in girders, the transfer lengths were increased by about 20%. The test …

Developing a prism qualification test to ensure adequate splitting resistance in pretensioned concrete railroad ties
… of a qualification test to ensure adequate splitting resistance in pre-tensioned concrete railroad ties. The research evaluated the influence of the edge distance, compressive strength of concrete and the type of wire indentation on bond performance between prestressing steel and concrete …
