Abstract: In exterior RC beam-column joints the anchorage of the beam reinforcement within the joint is of great importance for the load bearing capacity of the connection. The classical arrangement is to bend down the beam bars into the column. The high amount of reinforcement causes detailing problems in terms of placing the reinforcement bars and casting the concrete. Therefore the application of headed bars in beam-column joints was investigated in three test specimens. Employing headed bars the handling on site is much easier and the load-bearing capacity can be increased. In addition to the tests a numerical investigation was carried out.
