Abstract: In fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthened steel structures, debonding of the bonded FRP reinforcement from the steel substrate may result from adhesion failure at the steel/adhesive interface or the FRP/adhesive ...

Abstract: A large amount of research has been conducted on recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) due to its social, environmental, and economic significance. However, the in situ application of RAC has so far been mainly limited to ...

Abstract: Hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)–concrete–steel double-skin tubular members (DSTMs) are a new form of hybrid members that consist of an outer tube made of FRP and an inner tube made of steel, with the space between ...

Abstract: A numerical method, with which experimental results were processed, was adopted to measure the total emissivity of mild steel specimens at high temperatures. This method is derived from considering the transient thermal ...

Abstract: This paper summarizes the environmentally assisted degradation of the bond between steel and carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites through analysis of the mechanical performance of loaded and unloaded steel/CFRP ...

Abstract: A heat transfer model for unprotected steel structural members was proposed in this study. The model accounts for both the variation of the steel emissivity during the fire growth and the view factor effect. The participation ...

Abstract: Hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)–concrete–steel double-skin tubular members (DSTMs) are a new form of hybrid members that consist of an outer tube made of FRP and an inner tube made of steel, with the space between ...

Abstract: A recently proposed technique for the recycling of concrete is to directly reuse large pieces of coarsely crushed demolition concrete (referred to as recycled concrete lumps or RCLs) with fresh concrete in new construction. ...
