Abstract: This article presents an experimental study investigating the long-term shear performance of basalt fiber–reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars wrapped in seawater–sea sand concrete (SSC) immersed in different solution environments. ...

Abstract: This study investigated the axial-impact resistance of unconfined and CFRP-confined UHPC. External confinement was provided by one to three plies of CFRP wraps with confinement ratios ranging from 0.126 to 0.378. A series ...

Abstract: Using geopolymeric recycled aggregate concrete (GRAC) rather than conventional concrete to fill glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) tubes to produce high-performance structural members is a promising green construction ...

Abstract: Chloride transport is an important subject for the durability of steel-reinforced concrete structures in chloride-laden environments. There are several different types of tests for determination of the chloride-transport ...

Abstract: Basalt fiber–reinforced polymer (BFRP), a composite material known for its cost-effectiveness and excellent resistance to chloride ion corrosion, combined with environmentally friendly geopolymer is expected to contribute ...

Abstract: Replacement of steel bar with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bar in the preparation of seawater–sea sand concrete (SSC) can solve the steel corrosion problem and save natural resources. However, the strong alkaline in SSC ...

Abstract: The use of glass fiber‒reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars in seawater–sea sand geopolymer mortars (SSGMs) for coastal engineering has gained significant traction because of the potential to enhance the utilization of noncorrosive ...
