Abstract Square‐rebar reinforced concrete structures during the republic of China (ROC) (1912–1949) have special material properties and structural characteristics. To perform nonlinear finite element simulations of this special type of structure more accurately, a specialized bond‐slip constitutive model is built. Eighteen central pullout specimens were designed based on the ROC concrete mix proportions and the square‐rebar. Then, the test data were fitted with the universal global optimization method and the minimum Euclidean distance point method was chosen to calculate the inflection point matrix of the bond‐slip constitutive model. Finally, the main factors influencing the bond‐slip behavior of the ROC square‐rebar reinforced concrete were analyzed. The research results show that the corrosion of the square‐rebar produces a negative effect on the whole structure and a modified bond‐slip regression curve considering the size effect is obtained. The research results can provide a scientific basis for the nonlinear calculation of ROC square‐rebar reinforced concrete structures considering the bond‐slip behaviors.
