Abstract

In recent years, plenty of problems in the large-scaled bridges, piers…have been reported to the public due to the severe environment factors. The use of Epoxy-Coated reinforcement against salt and sulfate corrosion is considered as a reasonable solution and tested to study the bond performance between the thickness of coating and bond stresses. The results are that the strength of bond was decreased by 10 to 13 percent in the case of 100$\mu\textrm{m}$ of coating thickness and by 15 to 25 percent in the case of 200$\mu\textrm{m}$ to 300$\mu\textrm{m}$ and significantly fell down when the thickness was above 300$\mu\textrm{m}$. Accordingly, a 200$\mu\textrm{m}$ coating-thickness to the reinforcement is suggested to maintain the acceptable bond mechanism and goes well with the ASTM(item NO.A775) and those of Korean Concrete Institute.
