Structural effects of epoxy coating disbondment

This short-term study was conducted in response to questions about the structural effects of the loss of epoxy coating adhesion. The study was conducted at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center from September 1992 to December 1992 and consisted of three phases. Phase 1 induced disbondment between the epoxy coating by means of an electrochemical process. This resulted in epoxy-coated rebar with a significant degree of disbondment (between 20 and 30%). In phase 2 of the study, experiments were conducted to test the effects of this degree of disbondment upon the flexural capacity of reinforced concrete slabs. Three sets of identical reinforced concrete slabs were fabricated. The control slabs were fabricated with plain (uncoated) bars and untreated epoxy-coated bars. The test slabs were fabricated with the disbonded epoxy-coated bars. The slabs were then tested to failure in positive and negative moment. Phase 3 of the study tested the effects of disbondment upon pull-out resistance.
