RISAlkali–Silica Reactivity of Sand Used in Sand-Coating Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Bars as Internal Reinforcement for Concrete
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: New guidelines require that sand particles used to provide a bond between the FRP reinforcing bars and concrete to be free of any expansion due to alkali–aggregate reactions. The current study aims at establishing the ...
Effect of Vertical and Horizontal Web Reinforcement on the Strength and Deformation of Concrete Deep Beams Reinforced with GFRP Bars
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Development and Validation of a Testing Procedure for Determining Tensile Strength of Bent GFRP Reinforcing Bars
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The current study aims to develop and standardize laboratory and on-site testing procedures to determine the tensile strength of bent glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars for quality control and quality assurance ...
Reconsideration of the Environmental Reduction Factor <i>C<sub>E</sub></i> for GFRP Reinforcing Bars in Concrete Structures
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Design guides for fibre-reinforced polymer-reinforced concrete (FRP-RC) require that the design tensile strength of FRP bars be determined by multiplying the guaranteed tensile strength by an environmental reduction factor ...
Performance and Durability of In-Plant Partially Cured GFRP Bent Bars in Steam-Cured Precast Concrete Elements
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bent bars were used as shear reinforcement for precast/prestressed concrete box beams in Ontario, Canada. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) tests performed on the bent GFRP bars ...
Comparing Short-Term Performance of Corrugated HDPE Pipe Made with or without Recycled Resins for Transportation Infrastructure Applications
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In recent years, corrugated high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes manufactured from recycled resins have been on the rise for infrastructure sectors as a result of their numerous advantages. Compared to HDPE pipes made ...
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 ...
Impact of High-End Climate Change on Floods and Low Flows of the Brahmaputra River
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The release of high-resolution climatic projections through the Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) initiative provides unique opportunities to assess the risk of hydrological extremes in various ...
