Abstract: The use of externally bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRPs) as strengthening systems to improve the condition and overall capacity of existing reinforced concrete structural members is ...

Abstract: Cement has historically been a major contributor to carbon dioxide emissions, and substituting cement in concrete with alternative cementitious materials will lead to a decrease in carbon footprints. A vast amount of ...

Abstract: Carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites are effectively and predominantly used for flexure strengthening of RC beams. Recently, new emerging composite materials known as galvanized steel mesh (GSM) sheets, which ...
