How Concrete Filling Fundamentally Changes Stress–Strain Curve of Angle-Ply FRP Tubes in Tension
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Angle-ply (±55°) fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes are widely available and have been used in concrete-filled FRP tube (CFFT) members. Two observations have been reported regarding the behavior of these tubes in tension: ...
RC Deep Beams with Vertical Openings: Behavior and Proposed Mitigation Techniques
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Vertical openings in beams and girders are sometimes used to facilitate the passage of essential services such as HVAC, electricity, and sewage. There is a lack of research on the effects of vertical openings on deep ...
Bond Characteristics of CFRP Rod Panels Adhered to Concrete under Bending Effects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP) rod panels (CRPs) comprising small-diameter rods at a spacing larger than rod diameter are emerging as an effective adhesively bonded system for retrofit applications. They offer the ...
Field Testing and Dynamic Response of Full-Scale GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Guideway under Monorail Train
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, field testing is conducted on two full-scale guideway reinforced concrete (RC) beams, one reinforced entirely by glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) and the other by conventional steel, under 450 passes ...
