Effect of Concrete Types and Construction Joints on Concrete Shear Friction Characteristics

Article Preview

Abstract:

The present study examined the effect of smooth construction joint and concrete unit weight on the shear friction behavior of concrete. From nine push-off test specimens, shear load-relative slip relationships, shear cracking stress, shear friction strength were measured. Test results showed that the shear cracking stress was hardly affected by the configuration of transverse reinforcement or concrete unit weight. The shear friction strength of monolithic normal-weight concrete was approximately three times higher than that of the companion specimens with construction joint. Meanwhile, the heavyweight concrete joints had a similar shear friction strength to normal-weight concrete ones.
