Abstract

A method has been proposed to study the characteristics of bond between steel and concrete. The method involves a bond pullout test and holographic interferometry and is suitable for investigating the two stages of bond, adhesive and frictional.

Keywords:
reinforced concrete, interferometers, bonding, pullout test, holographic interferometry
