1 General
1.0.1, 1.0.2 This specification makes uniform requirements for the performance
requirements of rebar mechanical splicing in concrete structures of construction
projects, application of splices, on-site processing and installation of splices,
and on-site inspection and acceptance of splices, which is used in combination
with the current national standard “Code for design of concrete structures” GB
50010, to ensure the quality and reasonable application of various mechanical
splices. In addition to construction works, general structures (including towers
such as television towers, chimneys, containers, municipal public infrastructure,
etc.) and other engineering structures such as highway and railway bridges,
dams, nuclear power plants, may refer to this specification.
After the promulgation and implementation of this specification, all kinds of
rebar mechanical splices, such as sleeve extruded splices, tapered threaded
splices, straight threaded splices, etc. shall comply with the provisions of this
specification. Reinforced sleeve grouting splices have special requirements and
shall comply with the relevant provisions of the current industry standard
“Technical specification for grout sleeve splicing of rebars” JGJ 355.
1.0.3 This clause specifies the applicable standards for steel reinforcing bars
used for rebar mechanical splicing; adds relevant provisions for hot-rolled round
steel reinforcing bars, residual heat treated steel reinforcing bars, stainless
steel reinforcing bars. China's stainless steel rebar industry standards have
been promulgated and implemented. The stainless steel rebar mechanical
splicing had been applied in Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and other
projects. Based on domestic experience in applying stainless steel rebars, this
specification has formulated relevant provisions for the use of stainless steel
rebars for mechanical splicing.
2 Terms and symbols
2.1 Terms
2.1.1 ~ 2.1.5 Introduce the definition of terms such as rebar mechanical splicing,
splices, splices, connectors of mechanical splicing, sleeves, rebar threaded
sectors, etc.
According to this definition, the commonly used types of rebar mechanical
splicing are as follows:
① Sleeve extruded splice: A splice formed by tight engagement between the
steel sleeve of the connector of mechanical splicing under the plastic
deformation due to extruding force and the ribbed steel reinforcing bar.
② Taper threaded splice: A splice formed through engagement by the special
taper thread of the steel reinforcing bar end and the taper thread of the
connector of mechanical splicing.
③ Upset straight threaded splice: A splice formed through engagement by the
straight thread produced by upsetting the end of the steel reinforcing bar and
the thread of the connector of mechanical splicing.
④ Rolled straight threaded splice: A splice formed through engagement by the
straight thread as produced by rolling directly at the end of the steel reinforcing
bar or rolling after stripping the rib and the thread of the connector of mechanical
splicing.
⑤ Sleeve grouting splice: A butt splice of steel reinforcing bar which realizes
force transmission through hardening the mixture after inserting a single ribbed
steel reinforcing bar and injecting grouting mix into a metal sleeve.
⑥ Molten metal filling splice: The splice formed by the filling of molten metal
which is produced by the reaction of the high-temperature agent in between the
steel reinforcing bar and the sleeve of the connector of mechanical splicing.
The latter two types of splices rely mainly on the ribs on the surface of the steel
reinforcing bar and the mechanical occlusion of the hardened cement slurry or
molten metal, which transmits the tensile force or pressure in the steel
reinforcing bar to the connector of mechanical splicing, then to the other steel
reinforcing bar through the connector of mechanical splicing.
Some connectors of mechanical splicing are composed of a sleeve and other
components in order to meet the different functions of the splice. The connector
of mechanical splicing is a general term for multiple components including the
sleeve.
The above-mentioned different types of splices can be divided into different
3 Performance requirements of splices
3.0.1 The splice shall meet the requirements of strength and deformation
performance. Its performance is graded based on this.
3.0.2 This clauses stipulates that the sleeve material shall comply with the
relevant provisions of the current industry standard “Couplers for rebar
mechanical splicing” JG/T 163. In recent years, the raw materials for connecting
sleeves are mostly No.45 cold-drawn or cold-rolled precision seamless steel
tubes, which is commonly known as bright tubes. The internal stress of this type
of processed steel tube is very large. If it is not annealed, its elongation is very
low. There are hidden dangers in quality, meanwhile the sleeve is also easy to
crack in engineering applications. The product standard “Couplers for rebar
mechanical splicing” JG/T 163 specifies that for the use of this type of tube
materials, in addition to be “annealed”, it shall also meet the requirements that
the strength is not more than 800 MPa and the elongation at break is not less
than 14%. This specification reiterates that the product standard requires that
such tubes shall be annealed to remind users to pay attention to the quality
control of such tubes.
3.0.3 The strength and deformation of a splice under uniaxial tension are the
basic properties of the splice. The high-stress repeated tension-compression
performance reflects the ability of the splice to withstand high stress repeated
tension-compression under wind loads and small earthquakes. The large-
deformation repeated tension-compression performance reflects the load-
bearing capacity of the splice in the plastic deformation stage of the structure
under the strong earthquake.
The above three performances are the basic inspection items for splice’s type
testing. The fatigue performance is a selective test item according to the
application of the splice.
On-site process inspection requires inspection of unidirectional tensile residual
deformation and ultimate tensile strength.
3.0.4 This clause stipulates that the splice shall be divided into three grades of
I, II, III according to the ultimate tensile strength, residual deformation, total
elongation at maximum force, repeated tension-compression performance
under high-stress and large-deformation conditions.
Grade I splice: The ultimate tensile strength of the connector of mechanical
splicing is greater than or equal to 1.1 times the standard value of the tensile
strength of the connected steel reinforcing bars. The residual deformation is
small; it has high ductility and repeated ten......
