Based on the regression analysis, following equation has been proposed to predict the bond stress of concrete after exposure to elevated temperatures f b = f bo – (0.008*T) – (0.091 P fa ), 28 < T < 800, (4.1) and 0 < P fa < 25. Where f b = bond stress of concrete exposed to a temperature of T ° C. f bo = Bond stress of OPC concrete without fly ash at ambient temperature in MPa . T = Temperature of exposure in ° C. P fa = Percentage of fly ash. 10
Different code of practices proposes equation to calculate the design bond stress of concrete and some of such equations are presented in Table 9 Table 9 Equations for bond stress by different Code of Practices 11
