Abstract
Development and testing of a bond-type anchorage system for specific use with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer composite (CFRP) tendons have been described. The anchorage system employs expansive cement as the gripping agent. This was done in order to eliminate deformations associated with creep and thermal effects ordinarily associated with epoxy resin type binders in anchorage systems. Two different diameters (8 and 10 mm) of smooth CFRP rods were employed to examine the effectiveness of the anchorage system in post tensioning applications. The experimental program was designed in order to determine several important parameters including the expansive pressure, bond strength, and distribution of strain within the anchorage zone.
