In this study, six reinforced concrete (RC) beams with the sizes of 200x300x2000 mm were tested under four-point bending to investigate the effect of single and hybrid fiber reinforced on the bond strength of reinforcing bar. For this purpose, the reinforced beams were cast as no fiber, single fiber (1% macro steel fiber) and hybrid fiber (0.8% macro and 0.2% micro steel fiber) reinforced. Each beam was designed to include two bars in tension, spliced at the center of the span. The splice length was selected so that bars would fail in bond, splitting the concrete cover in the splice region, before reaching the yield point. In experimental work, the diameter of bars, splice length and bar details was selected as constant while the fiber type and combination was variable. Finally, it was found that all beams with steel fiber reinforced had higher bond strength between concrete and steel bar than the beams without steel fiber while the beams with hybrid steel fiber reinforced had highest bond strength. A ductile failure was observed in the hybrid fiber reinforced beam specimens and it was determined that the result of multiple-crack behavior less crack width but more numbers cracked. Moreover, experimental data related to the bond strength obtained from RC beams with steel fiber were in very good agreement with analytical results.
