Abstract: Under the pullout specimens strengthened with near-surface mounted (NSM) FRP bars, the bearing capacity process and the failure mode of the specimens are analyzed, and the influence of the parameters about the diameter of FRP bars, bonded length and the type of FRP on bond-slip behavior are studied. The results show that four types of failure modes including debonding failure at the interface between FRP bars and adhesive interface, debonding failure at the interface between concrete and adhesive epoxy, rupture of FRP bars and split of adhesive epoxy are obtained. The bond stress of the specimen with NSM BFRP increases with the bonded length, on the contrary, for the specimen with NSM GFRP bars. Due to the decrease of Poisson ratio of the FRP bars and the shear lag effect, the bond stress of the specimen decreases with increasing the diameter of FRP bars. At the same time, the model of the bond-slip constitutive relationship for the specimen strengthened with NSM-FRP bars is established and the mathematic representation of the characteristic points in the model is proposed based on the analysis and fitting of test results. The comparison between the fitting curve and experimental curve illustrates that the bond-slip constitutive relationship can accurately simulate the bond-slip behavior of concrete strengthened with NSM FRP bars.
