Abstract Shear interface transfer between new an old concrete has a several factors that affect on the value of its ultimate shear resistance. To study the behavior of shear dowels connected reinforced concrete jacket with footing, an experimental program consists of two groups of specimens were casted and tested. Group I consists of 16 push-off specimens representing 14 different cases of placing dowels were tested under static load. Two control specimens without dowels were tested. Group 11 consists of 4 push-off specimens representing 4 different cases of placing dowels with smooth interfaces and strain gauges fixed on dowels representing the position of all dowels were tested under static load., concrete of 250 kg/ern” ,350 kg/cm were casted for footings and jacket. Different percentages of shear dowels in different surfaces of R.e. footing were studied and test results showed that in placing dowels in surfaces Al (column head surfaces) the ultimate load increased and placing dowels in surfaces A2 and A3 (horizontal surface of footing and vertical surfaces of footing) respectively decreased the displacement. When dowels placed in three surfaces AI, A2, A3 together, the ultimate load was increased and displacement was decreased. The actual effect of placing dowels in surfaces A2 and A3 did not appeared bacause of high steel reinforcement ratio of jacket which resist the increament of loading that was noticed from test results of group Il. A new proposed modification of the Japanese code (JCI) formula was presented and compared with the experimental test results and other formulae. |
