Influence of the interface reinforcement on static performance of concrete composite T-shaped beams

The tests results of composite reinforced concrete T-shaped beams with an interface between the web and the flange are presented. The interface in the beams differed in the degree of the adhesion activity and the joining reinforcement ratio. Five series of beams were tested for deflection, displacement of composite parts in relation to each other, strain of main and transverse reinforcement, and crack pattern. The results were compared with the theoretical forces, at which interface cracks and achieves the bearing capacity, calculated in accordance with fib Model Code 2010.
