3 Terms and definitions

For the purpose of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.

3.1

the grouting coupler

the metal coupler for splicing of rebars through the force transferring impact of cement-

based grouting material, which is usually made by the casting process or mechanical

process

3.2

the whole grouting coupler

the grouting coupler which splices rebars by grouting at both ends of the splice

3.3

the grouting coupler with half thread end

the grouting coupler with one end of the splice spliced by grouting and the other end

spliced by non-grouting; the other end is usually spliced by thread

3.4

the grouting coupler with directly rolling thread end

the grouting coupler with half thread end with the non-grouting splicing end of the splice

splicing rebars by directly rolling thread end

3.5

the grouting coupler with rolling thread end after stripping rib

the grouting coupler with half thread end with the non-grouting splicing end of the splice

by rib-stripped rolling straight thread

3.6

the grouting coupler with thread end after upsetting

b) the first type change of the grouting coupler with rolling thread end after stripping

rib, which is made by mechanical processing and splices rebars of standard yield

strength 500 MPa and diameter 36 for the grouting end or 32 mm for the non-

grouting end, is expressed as. GTJB5 36/32A.

5 Requirements

5.1 General provisions

5.1.1 The production of the grouting coupler shall meet the requirements of product

design.

5.1.2 The design of yield bearing capacity and tensile bearing capacity, after

reckoning in the maximum negative tolerances at the positions of the middle of the

whole grouting coupler and the discharging hole of the grouting coupler with half

threaded end, is specified in JGJ 107.

5.1.3 The length of the grouting coupler shall be decided by tests and the length of

the grouting splicing end is preferably not less than 8 times of the diameter of rebars;

the length of installation and adjustment of rebars shall be reserved on both sides of

the middle axial anchor point, not less than 10 mm for the prefabricated end and not

less than 20 mm for the on-site assembly end.

5.1.4 The number of shear slots shall meet the specifications of Table 1; the axial

thickness of the boss on both sides of shear slots shall not be less than 2 mm.

5.1.5 The wall thickness of the grouting coupler mechanically processed shall not be

less than 3 mm; the wall thickness of the grouting coupler cast shall not be less than 4

mm.

5.1.6 The diameter of the through-hole at the splice of the threaded end and the

grouting end of the grouting coupler with half threaded end is preferably not too large;

the difference between the minor diameter of thread and the diameter of through-hole

shall not be less than 2 mm; the length of through-hole shall not be less than 3 mm.

5.2 Material properties

5.2.1 The grouting coupler cast is preferably made of spheroidal graphite cast iron;

5.4 Appearance

5.4.1 The inner and outer surfaces of the grouting coupler shall be free from quality

defects which are adverse to its usability, such as slag inclusions, cold shuts, sand

holes, shrinkage holes and cracks.

5.4.2 The surface of the grouting coupler mechanically processed shall be free from

cracks or other defects adverse to the properties of the splice; the edges of the end

surfaces and outer surfaces shall be free from sharp corners and burrs.

5.4.3 The outer surface of the grouting coupler shall be marked legibly.
5.4.4 The surface of the grouting coupler shall be free from rust.

5.5 Mechanical properties
