However, there is a wide scatter in the ob- tained results, which, more than anything is related to the di- renee in test setup. Test setups can be classified, based on the possibility of the cable to rotate., as "rotating" and "non- rotating". In some of the tests, there is a long length' of cable left unembeded between the pulling end and the testing sec- tion. Laboratory tests performed by Stillborg (1984). Rajaie (1990) are some examples. In these tests, the cable is allowed to rotate and since the torsional rigidity of the strand is low, lower ranges for bond capacity are reported. In the case of a non-rotating test. "suchas those performed by Fuller and Cox (1975), Goris (l990a,bJ and Hyett et al. (l992a,b), a consider- able amount of grout flutes have to be sheared during pool, which results in higher load capacities. A non-rotating test re- sults in a hardening profile' such as the one that is shown in Figure 2 j. '1 ~.

To increase the fric- tional properties of the cable smface modified geometry cables are used. In a field test, a comparison between pull test results for conventional versus nutcase cable by Bawden and Hyett (1992)"showec!'a 200% increase in bond strength in the latter' (Figure 2). Realising the notable improvement in bond capac- ity by a'small change in the cable geometry, a comprehensive investigation was performed to clear the mechanism of the as- sociated bond failure mechanism the details of which is dis- cussed in Moosavi, (1997).
