Abstract:
In this work, the shear and tensile tests of bonding interface were carried out for the epoxy resin bonded steel-precast UHPC slab composite structures. The test results showed that the epoxy resin adhesive and the UHPC material themselves in the composite specimen remain intact. The failure location of the specimens under shearing is at the bonding interface between the steel plate and the adhesive, while for the tensile specimens the failure location is at the bonding interface between UHPC slab and adhesive. Both of the failure modes are brittle, characterized by rapid loss of the bearing capacity of specimens due to the slippage or separation of bonding interface. The shear strength may not be greatly affected by the bond area, and the measured average value and design value of shear strength are 2. 59MPa and 1. 36MPa, respectively. The tensile strength is related to the bond area. When the size of tensile specimen is increased from 160mm to 200mm, the measured tensile strength decreases from 2. 74MPa to 1. 86MPa with a decrease rate of 30% , and the design value of tensile strength is 0. 78MPa. In addition, the steel fiber volume content of 1 ~2% in UHPC has little effect on the tensile strength. Furthermore, a finite element model of steel-UHPC composite slab was established and analyzed. The analysis results showed that under vehicle loads the bonding layer is mainly subjected to the shear force, and it shall be most unfavorable in the transverse direction of bridge. The maximum transverse shear stress and vertical tensile stress in the most unfavorable load conditions are 1. UMPa and 0. 15MPa, which are lower than the design value of shear strength and that of tensile strength of epoxy resin adhesive respectively. Based on the test and analysis results and in view of the brittle failure characteristics of binder, it is recommended that the emphasis shall be put on the treatment of bonding interfaces and particular emphasis on the shear strength issue. © 2023 Editorial Office of China Civil Engineering Journal.
