Behavior of RC Beams Strengthened with CFRP Laminates Under Fire - A Finite Element Simulation
(2011-03)For the last two decades, the use of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP) material has been successfully employed in many civil engineering applications. FRP strengthening systems are mainly used to retrofit existing and deficient ... -
Durability of Mortar and Epoxy Bonded Galvanized Steel Mesh Sheets to Concrete Surfaces
(2019-04)Over the last few decades, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets and plates have been extensively used as external strengthening materials and proved to be quite effective in enhancing the flexure and shear strength of ... -
Experimental and Analytical Investigations of the Use of Groove-Epoxy Anchorage System for Shear Strengthening of RC Beams Using CFRP Laminates
(MDPI, 2020)Reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened in shear with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates as externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) usually fail due to debonding. This paper presents an experimental and ... -
Flexural Bond Performance of Anchored CFRP Laminates to Concrete Beams
(2021-12)Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are being extensively used in retrofitting and strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) members due to their superior properties such as high strength and corrosion resistance. ... -
Flexural Performance of Concrete Beams Strengthened Using CFRP Sheets with Large Spike Anchors
(2023-03)Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) have a proven strength enhancement capability when attached to reinforced concrete (RC) beams. However, the inherent brittleness of FRP composites largely sacrifices the full load-carrying ...
