Abstract
As a common rebar connector in prefabricated projects, the grouted sleeve connection (GSC) affects structural performance during fire and seismic events. However, the combined impact of both factors may alter GSC performance, although most studies concentrate on high temperature or loading schemes. Few [...] Read more.
As a common rebar connector in prefabricated projects, the grouted sleeve connection (GSC) affects structural performance during fire and seismic events. However, the combined impact of both factors may alter GSC performance, although most studies concentrate on high temperature or loading schemes. Few quantitative models are available for predicting the mechanical characteristics of post-fire GSCs under unidirectional tension, let alone cyclic loading. In this study, 18 GSC specimens were made and subjected to heating, water cooling, and cyclic loading. Thermal and mechanical loads caused rebar fracture below 400 °C, but pullout failure occurred beyond 400 °C. GSC performance declined as temperature and loading cycles increased. Based on this test and several previous investigations, predictive models with guaranteed rates for GSC performance after high temperature by water cooling under uniaxial and cyclic loading were constructed. According to the predictive models, the four parameters (including yield strength, ultimate strength, elastic modulus, and ultimate strain) of the GSCs using HRB400 rebars can be obtained.
