The structural expanded polystyrene (EPS) concrete (above 35 MPa) has the potential to be used as metro track bed to reduce and isolate vibration, but its bond behavior is still unclear. This inhibits its application because it is often used in combination with reinforcing bar. In this paper, a class of structural EPS concrete (above 35 MPa) was developed. Based on this, a series of pull-out tests were conducted and the bond behavior of deformed bars in these structural EPS concretes was investigated. In addition, effects of rebar bond length and rebar diameter were analyzed in detail. Experimental results indicate that the structural EPS concrete suffers splitting failure more easily than the conventional concrete (CC). Increase of EPS replacement, rebar bond length or rebar diameter tends to cause the splitting failure of structural EPS concrete. Moreover, with increase of EPS replacement, the failure process is less explosive and more gradual. The stress-slip relationships of the most specimens show three stages, namely linear ascending, non-linear progression, and descending stages. The bond strength of structural EPS concrete is found depended linearly on the power function of its compressive strength, relative cover thickness (c/d) and relative rebar bond length (L/d), respectively. Accordingly, a bond strength prediction model was formulated, and it can precisely predict the bond strength of deformed bars in structural EPS concrete, specimens failing in splitting or splitting-pull out modes, and no fiber added. The results can provide reference for the design of structural EPS concrete.
