Deterioration of adhesively bonded CFRP/steel systems in salt fog environment, i.e., deicing salts and ocean environments, has to be taken into account in the design of steel strengthened structures. In the present work, monotonic and quasi-static cyclic loading were applied to CFRP-to-steel double strap joints for two kinds of CFRP laminates after being aged for a period of 5000 h to evaluate the bond behavior. The bonded joints exposed to salt fog had a different failure mode than that observed in the control specimens (0 h of exposure). The severe reduction of the maximum bond stress resulted from damage initiation that occurred in the corrosion region of the steel substrate, associated with final partial rupture on the corroded steel substrate around the edge of the bonded area: it was also correlated with reduced load carrying capacity. Results of pseudo-cyclic tests showed that the relationship between a local damage parameter (D) and normalized local dissipated energy (W d /G f) and the normalized slip increment (ΔS/ΔS ult) exhibited almost the same trend in the un-aged and aged bonded joints. The normalized slip increment can be seen as a direct indicator for the local and global damage for the un-aged and aged bonded joints. However, monotonic and quasi-static cyclic tests results revealed that the stress concentration due to local corrosion of steel substrate could lead to brittle rupture or accelerated cumulative damage once the aged bonded interface had become weaker. The bonded joints have exhibited also a smaller relative deformation capacity between CFRP and steel. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Pseudo-cyclic and cyclic loading were applied to CFRP-to-steel bonded joints built with two different CFRP laminates. In this paper, the strength capacity and bond-slip curves are presented and compared. The modes of failure are also described and associated with the types of material used, and the observed performances are correlated. The analysis of the results showed a threshold value for loading and amplitude level, below which the cyclic loading caused no detectable damage. For cycles above that limit, the region of the joints around the loaded end presented degradation reflected on the bond-slip stiffness and on the increase of residual deformation. It was found that the normalized dissipated energies either obtained from the bond-slip relationship or from the load-slip response had the same trend. The experimental data allowed also to establish a relationship between the damage developed within the interface and the normalized slip. A preliminary estimate of fatigue limit based on those data is suggested. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

SALT , *TORSION , *ANCHORAGE , *ADHESIVES - Abstract
In this paper, the influence of salt fog and ambient condition exposure on CFRP-to-steel bonded joints (CSJs) with a near end mechanical anchorage was studied. The tests of the CSJs were carried out with a monotonic loading history respectively with and without a near end mechanical anchorage both unaged and after being exposed to the ageing conditions. The results revealed failures in the adhesive for some CSJs with a near end mechanical anchorage, among which also exhibited the best bond performance both in aged and unaged specimens. Due to the high state of degradation after ageing exposure, local damage of the CFRP located at the gap position of the CSJs was induced by a torsion action during the fixation of the specimen in the tensile machine even prior to the testing, which caused, although locally, severe delamination of the CFRP of the aged CSJs. From the torsion test results, a decrease in the torsional capacity of the CFRP after aging revealed the degradation of the carbon fiber-to-matrix interface. Additional results reflected that a drop in the initial stiffness of the load vs. slip relationship can be observed, caused by a pre-crack with a length of 30 mm in the CSJs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Mechanical anchorage devices have the potential to efficiently improve the bond behavior of Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) Externally Bonded (EB) onto steel with an adhesive. Existing relevant studies, however, have been very limited. Against this background, experimental and numerical studies on the double overlapped CFRP-to-steel bonded joints with an end mechanical anchorage were carried out in the present study. Two types of CFRP laminates (i.e. , SIKA CFRP and the other type made in Harbin Institute of Technology – HIT) were used in the bond tests, with or without end mechanical anchorage devices. The test results showed that the end mechanical anchorage had marginal effect on the bond-slip relationship between EB CFRP and steel as well as debonding load, but could increase the ultimate load. It was also found that CFRP laminate from HIT had a better bond performance than that from SIKA, in terms of both debonding load and ultimate load. Using ABAQUS, Finite Element (FE) model was established on such bonded joints and the accuracy was verified with test results. The verified FE model was adopted in a parametric study to further clarify the effect of key parameters on the bond behavior of such bonded joints. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Utilizing ductile adhesive on CFRP-reinforced steel structures makes the bonded interface with good resistance to dynamic and fatigue loading, which is suitable for the rehabilitation of steel bridges. Currently, considerable studies on the aspect of the CFRP–steel interface are focused only on mode-II loading, ignoring the effects of mode-I loading which could lead to a catastrophic collapse of the retrofitted structures. In the present paper, modified CFRP-to-steel bonded double overlapped joints with various initial peeling angles (θ) were manufactured in order to consider mode-I loading and study the bond behavior of CFRP-to-steel joints under mixed mode-I&II loading. The results showed that the bonded side with weaker adhesion between CFRP and adhesive debonded first and presented a CFRP-adhesive interfacial debonding mode, while the debonding of the other side was delayed and showed a cohesive failure mode in the adhesive. The bond shear stress vs. slip relationship of the debonded side showed to have a bi-linear trend in which the bond strength and interfacial fracture energy were low whilst the other side showed a trapezoidal relationship with a constant plastic plateau and with higher interfacial fracture energy. It was found that sudden debonding caused a quick propagation in the CFRP strain as well as on the global interfacial slip of the joints. It was also found that the peeling angle had significantly deteriorated the local bond response in mode-II, i.e. the trapezoidal bond shear stress vs. slip relationship in the joints with θ = 0 ° shifted to a bi-linear relationship in the joints with θ = 1 ° , θ = 2 ° and with θ = 3 ° in which the bond strength, slip and fracture energy, all decreased very much. Moreover, with θ = 4 ° was experimentally determined as the threshold angle from which the associated mode-I loading can, per se , separate the CFRP from steel. • A review of the bond behavior of CFRP-to-steel joints subjected to mode-I, mode-II and mixed mode-I&II loading is presented. • Modified CFRP-to-steel bonded joints were conceived, allowing assessment of the bond behavior considering mode-I loading. • Different bond qualities in both sides of the CFRP-to-steel double overlapped joints were identified. • Influences of the initial peeling angles on the bond performance of the CFRP-to-steel joints were analyzed thoroughly. • Degradation of bond shear stress vs. slip response due to mode-I loading was experimentally observed.
