RISBehavior of Full-Scale Railway Turnout Sleepers from Glue-Laminated Fiber Composite Sandwich Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experimental study on the flexural and shear behavior of the full-scale glue-laminated composite sandwich beams in three different layouts was conducted to evaluate the suitability of this construction system for railway ...
Uniaxial Compression Behavior of Short Square and Circular RC Piles Constructed with GFRP Bars and Spirals Preconditioned in Simulated Marine Environments
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The current experimental investigation assessed the durability of reinforced concrete (RC) piles with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars and spirals exposed to simulated marine environments. A total of 18 specimens—9 ...
Evaluation of Physical and Durability Characteristics of New Headed Glass Fiber–Reinforced Polymer Bars for Concrete Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of a collaborative research project between Quebec’s Ministry of Transportation and Ontario’s Ministry of Transportation, which aimed at characterizing a new type of headed glass fiber–reinforced ...
Comparison between ASTM D7205 and CSA S806 Tensile-Testing Methods for Glass Fiber–Reinforced Polymer Bars
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The standards ASTM D7205/D7205M-06 and CSA S806 contain the commonly used test methods for characterizing the tensile properties of glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars for use as reinforcement in concrete structures. ...
State-of-the-Art Review on FRP Sandwich Systems for Lightweight Civil Infrastructure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sandwich systems as primary load-bearing elements are relatively new concepts in lightweight civil infrastructure. These systems offer a combination of light weight, high strength, thermal ...
Bond Stress-Slip Behavior: Case of GFRP Bars in Geopolymer Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of geopolymer concrete reinforced with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars is anticipated to address the concerns on the usage of traditional reinforced concrete structures, such as the corrosion of internal steel ...
Effects of Diameter on the Durability of Glass Fiber–Reinforced Polymer Bars Conditioned in Alkaline Solution
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Current standards do not consider the diameter of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars used as internal reinforcement in concrete structures to be a factor influencing bar durability. This paper investigates the ...
Experimental Study on Compressive Behavior of FRP-Confined Expansive Rubberized Concrete
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental study into the behavior of rubberized concrete-filled fiber-reinforced polymer tube (CFFT) columns, where the fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) confining layer is prestressed ...
