Implementation of Bond Durability in the Design of Flexural Members with Externally Bonded FRP
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are becoming a method of choice for the repair/strengthening of civil structures, some of which are situated in environments detrimental to FRP-concrete bond ...
Bond Durability Factor for Externally Bonded CFRP Systems in Concrete Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Lack of understanding and confidence in the long-term performance of externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in concrete structures still inhibits their application in repair of aged structures. While ...
Implementation of Bond Durability in the Design of Flexural Members with Externally Bonded FRP
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are becoming a method of choice for the repair/strengthening of civil structures, some of which are situated in environments detrimental to FRP-concrete bond ...
Flexural Capacity of Glass FRP Strengthened Concrete Masonry Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) can provide a strengthening alternative for unreinforced and underreinforced masonry. The ease with which FRP can be installed on the exterior of a masonry wall makes this form of strengthening ...
Experimental Evaluation of Flexural Static and Fatigue Strength of an Innovative Splice for Prestressed Precast Concrete Girders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Experimental Evaluation of Shear Strength of an Innovative Splice for Prestressed Precast Concrete Girders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes shear laboratory testing of a joint design for spliced, prestressed precast I-girders. Although the connection is not intended to be placed at locations of high shear, the potential for shear-type ...
Increased Damping in Cantilevered Traffic Signal Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Dynamic characteristics of a traffic signal structure were determined experimentally. Various strategies were investigated to provide additional damping. By decreasing the magnitude and the number of fatigue cycles caused ...
Ductile Anchorage for Connecting FRP Strengthening of Under-Reinforced Masonry Buildings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have been examined as a convenient and cost-effective means of strengthening unreinforced masonry structures. Seismic design in the United States is almost entirely based on the ...
Bridge Stay Cable Corrosion Protection. I: Grout Injection and Load Testing
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper is the first of two companion papers that cover the results of corrosion and structural testing of eight large-scale stay cable specimens. Four of the specimens had the traditional stay-cable corrosion protection ...
Bridge Stay Cable Corrosion Protection. II: Accelerated Corrosion Tests
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper is the second of two companion papers that cover the results of corrosion and structural testing of eight large-scale stay cable specimens. Four of the specimens had the traditional system of portland cement ...
