Construction using concrete is spreading widely and there is a need for concrete that is capable of flowing under its own weight without mechanical vibration or compaction and fill the places between reinforcement and the complicated form shapes. From here, Self-Compacted Concrete (SCC) appears for the first time. Limited attention has been directed toward the bond between High Strength Self-Compacted Concrete (HSSCC) and spliced bars in beams [1–8].This research studies the bond between HSSCC and spliced tension bars in beams. It is focused on observing the effect of some factors such as; reinforcement bar diameter and ratio, splice length and casting position on the beam flexural behavior. An experimental program consisting of sixteen simply supported beams divided into four groups is considered. All beams are of 1800 mm span and 200 × 400 mm cross-section cast with HSSCC. In twelve beams, the tensile steel was spliced in the constant moment zone, and four control beams without splice for comparison purpose. During testing; ultimate capacity, deflection, crack pattern and mode of failure have been recorded. Test results had been compared with proposed values in the Egyptian code of practice, other international design codes and recorded values of other researchers
