Abstract:
This study investigates the bonding performance of Grouted Corrugated Duct (GCD) connections through dynamic tensile tests at varying strain rates (10-3, 10-1, 100, 101 s-1). Steel bars with anchorage lengths of 5D, 6D, 7D, 8D, 10D, and 15D (where D represents the bar diameter) were tested. The observed failure modes include rebar fracture, steel bar pull-out failure, and combined pull-out failure of both the steel bar and corrugated duct. From the experimental results, dynamic stress-strain curves and dynamic bond strengths were derived. An analytical model was developed to predict the dynamic bond-slip behavior of the GCD connections. The model exhibited a fitting goodness index (R2) exceeding 0.88 for slip failure and 0.9 for fracture failure, demonstrating its satisfactory accuracy. Using this model, critical dynamic anchorage lengths under various strain rates were calculated, and an empirical model for predicting the critical dynamic anchorage length was also developed. The experimental results indicate a strong correlation between the ultimate fracture failure load and the strain rate. The average ultimate load increased from 51.83 kN to 63.95 kN as the strain rate increased from 0.001 s-1-10 s-1, corresponding to a 23.38 % increase. However, no significant correlation was observed between the maximum slip displacement and the strain rate. The critical dynamic anchorage length increased from 8.26D to 9.52D as the strain rate increased from 0.001 s-1-10 s-1, indicating a 15.34 % increase.
