The bond between epoxy-coated reinforcing bars and concrete under static, high strain rate, and impact loading was studied for plain concrete, polypropylene fibre reinforced concrete, and steel fibre reinforced concrete. The bond stress, slip, crack development, the bond stress-slip relationship, and the fracture energy during the bond-slip process were investigated experimentally. The results were compared with those for uncoated reinforcing bars. It was found that for epoxy-coated erbars, the bond resistance decreased, in terms of the maximum local bond stress and the average bond stress; wider cracks developed during the bond process; and the fracture energy during bond failure decreased. It was also found that the influence of epoxy coating on the bond behaviour for push-in loading was much more significant than for pull-out loading. However, steel fibre additions at asufficient content, and higher concrete strength, can mitigate the above effects to a considerable degree. Polypropylene fibres were much less effective in this regard than steel fibres.

The International Federation for Structural Concrete (fib) is a pre-normative organization. 'Pre-normative' implies pioneering work in codification. This work has now been realized with the fib Model Code 2010. The objectives of the fib Model Code 2010 are to serve as a basis for future codes for concrete structures, and present new developments with regard to concrete structures, structural materials and new ideas in order to achieve optimum behaviour. The fib Model Code 2010 is now the most comprehensive code on concrete structures, including their complete life cycle: conceptual design, dimensioning, construction, conservation and dismantlement. It is expected to become an important document for both national and international code committees, practitioners and researchers. The fib Model Code 2010 was produced during the last ten years through an exceptional effort by Joost Walraven (Convener; Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands), Agnieszka Bigaj-van Vliet (Technical Secretary; TNO Built Environment and Geosciences, The Netherlands) as well as experts out of 44 countries from five continents.
