Single shear tests (pull-out test) were conducted toinvestigate bond strengths (pull-out strengths) of control (unexposed) and exposed specimens. Effect of the exposure conditions onthe compressive strength of concrete were also investigated separately to understand the effect of changing concrete compressivestrength on the pull-out strength. Based on the comparison of experimental results of exposed specimens to control specimens interms of bond strengths, failure modes and strain profiles, the most significant degradation of pull-out strength was observed inspecimens exposed to outdoor environment, whereas temperature cycles did not cause any deterioration of strength.
