Description Experimental studies have been conducted for the bond behaviour of high performance concrete (HPC) with fly ash as cement replacement material (CRM). Pull-out specimens as per IS 2770 (Part-I) and IS 1786 have been used in the study. Three grades of concretes have been designed by varying water to binder ratio and the results are compared with the reference concrete, i.e. Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) concrete. It is observed from the study that for the selected quality and proportions of materials, specimens of OPC concrete with 30 percent fly ash as CRM shown 10-15% lower bond stresses compared to the reference concrete, however, still higher than that recommended by various codes of practices. Since, fly ash improves the durability properties of concrete and hence increases the resistance of the cover concrete to splitting. This can be considered as a partial substitution for the reduction in bond strength.
