This paper analyses the bond behaviour of epoxy coated rebar induced self-compacting concrete. Experimental program is designed to check the workability and pullout tested is performed to evaluate the bonding performance of rebars. Two mixes of self-compacting concrete are chosen to form a fine paste of cement that could make bonding between concrete and reinforcement. A reference mix of SCC is made using ordinary reinforcement and pullout test values are compared. Workability and compressive strength values of SCC are also analysed and compared.
