Abstract: This paper studies the cross-sectional behavior of steel columns strengthened with fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs). The composite column is constructed by wrapping the steel I-section column with epoxy-saturated glass- ...

Abstract: The compressive behavior of a steel-concrete composite column encased in a fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) tube is evaluated experimentally for columns with various slenderness ratios. The composite column consists of a FRP ...
