8 Discussion: The bar slip was greatest at the lead end of the bar In specimens with No. 5 bars, most of the slip occurs at the bent region of the bar, little slip was measured at the tail end of the bar Specimens with No. 8 bars showed more slip than the No. 5 bars at the tail end of the hook In specimens with No. 8 bars, the maximum load was the least in the horizontal direction and increased with increased tilt In specimens with No. 5 bars, the maximum load was similar for all angles of tilt Discussion: In the group effect specimens, the No.5 bars yielded, no matter the tilt angle or spacing. The No. 5 bars also had similar graphs, with the same stiffness and failure mode. In the group effect specimens, the No. 8 bar had more cracking as a test end mode although some yielding did occur. Data analysis is ongoing.
