Abstract

The UHPC grouted bellow is an innovative technology for connecting assembled buildings, where the anchorage performance of the rebar and UHPC filled in bellows plays a critical role in determining the overall connection effectiveness. To ascertain a dependable anchorage length and establish a bond-slip relationship between the rebar and UHPC within the bellow, we conducted tests on 8 groups of 16 specimens of metal corrugated pipes filled with UHPC and rebar under tension. The tests considered varying parameters such as the aperture ratio D/d and anchorage length L. By analyzing the failure modes, load versus deflection curves, and steel strain data, we gained valuable insights into the influence of the aperture ratio and anchorage length on the anchorage performance. Furthermore, we calculated the experimental curve of the bond-slip relationship between the rebar and the UHPC interface grouted in the bellows and derived a bond-slip model through fitting. These findings serve as a crucial foundation for the force analysis of assembled structures connected using UHPC grouted bellows.
