Chapter 12.2, Problem 20E
The bond behavior of reinforcing bars is an important determinant of strength and stability. The article “Experimental Study on the Bond Behavior of Reinforcing Bars Embedded in Concrete Subjected to Lateral Pressure” (J. of Materials in Civil Engr., 2012:125–133) reported the results of one experiment in which varying levels of lateral pressure were applied to 21 concrete cube specimens, each with an embedded 16-mm plain steel round bar. and the corresponding bond capacity was determined. Due to differing concrete cube strengths (fcu, in MPa), the applied lateral pressure was equivalent to a fixed proportion of the specimen’s (0, .1fcu, … , .6fcu). Also, since bond strength can be heavily influenced by the specimen’s fcu, bond capacity was expressed as the ratio of bond strength (MPa) to

Q5) An article in the ACI Materials Journal (Vol. 84, 1987, pp. 213–216) describes several
experiments investigating the rodding of concrete to remove entrapped air. A 3-inch & 6-inch
cylinder was used, and the number of times this rod was used is the design variable. The
resulting compressive strength of the concrete specimen is the response. The data shown is
posted on BruinLearn Week 2:
A. Is there any difference in compressive strength due to the rodding level? Use (α= 0.05).
B. Find the P-value for the F statistic in part (a).
C. Analyze the residuals from this experiment. What conclusions can you draw about the
underlying model assumptions?
D. Construct a graphical display to compare the treatment means as described in your lecture
notes.
The article “Effect of Granular Subbase Thickness on Airfield Pavement Structural Response” (K. Gopalakrishnan and M. Thompson, Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2008:331–342) presents a study of the effect of the subbase thickness on the amount of surface deflection caused by aircraft landing on an airport runway. In six applications of a 160 kN load on a runway with a subbase thickness of 864 mm, the average surface deflection was 2.03 mm with a standard deviation of 0.090 mm. Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean deflection caused by a 160 kN load.

- During the spring of 1999, many fuel storage facilities in Serbia were destroyed by bombing. As a result, significant quantities of oil products were spilled and burned,resulting in soil pollution. The article “Mobility of Heavy Metals Originating from Bombing of Industrial Sites” (B. Škrbić, J. Novaković, and N. Miljević, Journal of Environmental Science and Health, 2002:7–16) reports measurements of heavy metal concentrations at several industrial sites in June 1999, just after the bombing, and again in March of 2000. At the Smederevo site, on the banks of the Danube River, eight soil specimens taken in 1999 had an average lead concentration (in mg/kg) of 10.7 with a standard deviation of 3.3.
