Abstract
Analytical studies were conducted on force transfer mechanism of retrofitted anchorage system in structural concrete by Strut-and-Tie modeling (STM). Post Installation of Headed anchorage (PIHA) as supplementary system introduced for implicit strengthening of anchorage system. The boundaries of STM are considered under direct tension pull-out test. Five different configurations of conventional reinforcement anchorage in concrete with straight bar, 90-degree bend, 180-degree hook, single head and double head bars are retrofitted by using PIHA technique. The mechanics of force transfer in anchorage system was analyzed by STM and validated the results by experimental program. The study parameters considered are (i) location of nodal zone, (ii) strut angle, (iii) size of strut (concrete) contributed during failure. The study variables are (i) configuration of anchorage system (ii) characteristic node formation and (iii) presence of supplementary reinforcement. The result shows good agreement with experimental findings against failure mode, stress pattern, and location of critical zone in conventional and retrofitted anchorage system. Use of this study may further extended to assess theoretical evaluation of failure mode, formation of critical section and stressed regions of discrete RC elements such as corbel projection, bracket connections and beam-column joints.
