Abstract
Bond is the basic property that enables a successful strengthening of concrete structures with CFRP plates. In order to find an appropriate way to investigate arbitrary bond situations, some micromechanical considerations are presented first. With transparent models, it is possible to derive the hardening behaviour "at low load" and the softening behaviour "at high load". The latter situation is characterized by the presence of a crack which has a weakening effect. The simplest way to idealize these findings is a bilinear stress-slip relationship. With this tool, bond problems can be treated mathematically. In the case of anchorage capacity considerations, some simple but very useful formulas can be derived. Finally, a good agreement between theoretical and experimental results can be found. Show more
