Abstract

Cyclic deformation behavior of high UTS/YS rebars has been studied employing both symmetric strain-controlled and asymmetric stress-controlled cycles in an attempt to understand the influence of UTS/YS ratio on fatigue life. While strain-controlled cyclic deformation did not exhibit a pronounced influence of UTS/YS ratio, a substantial life enhancement is noted for the asymmetric stress-controlled cyclic. Reasons for life enhancement were found to be due to the ratchetting strain development and the associated hardening behavior. An equivalent stress-based model has been used to predict both the symmetric and asymmetric fatigue lives of rebars.
