This paper presents the methodology used to identify the mechanical behaviour of a steel-concrete interface in the case of a particular steel reinforcement (flat steel). The methodology consists in simulating the statistical mechanical behaviour of reinforced concrete tie-beams, subjected to tension, using a probabilistic discrete approach for the mechanical behaviour of the concrete under axial tension and a deterministic model for the steel-concrete interface. The model proposed for the interface is in the frame of damage mechanics taking into account physical phenomena related to the interface (cohesion and slip). The tie-beams are reinforced by a flat steel rebar with a rectangular cross section of 25 × 3.5 mm. Results of this numerical simulation have been compared to some experimental tests results. These comparisons are performed in terms of global responses (load-displacement curves) and of local responses (crack openings, number of cracks and cracks’ spacing).
