This study tests grouted splices connected by two types of sleeves, namely Welded Bar Sleeve (WBS) and Tapered Head Sleeve (THS). These sleeves are made from non-proprietary pipe sections, where (a) WBS is fabricated by welding the deformed bars to the inner wall of the pipe, and (b) THS is made tap...
