FRP Strengthening of Precast Prestressed Concrete Piles for Enhanced Integrity under Driving Impact
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, a novel solution is proposed to locally strengthen precast prestressed concrete (PPC) driven piles by wrapping them with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites at the end regions. To investigate ...
Fatigue Behavior and Prediction of NSM CFRP-Strengthened Reinforced Concrete Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, a total of 16 reinforced concrete beams (dimensions of 203×305×3,861 mm) strengthened with near-surface mounted (NSM) carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) rods and strips were tested under four-point ...
Predicting Flexural Fatigue Performance of RC Beams Strengthened with Externally Bonded FRP due to FRP Debonding
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, an analytical model is proposed to predict the flexural fatigue behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with externally bonded (EB) fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) laminates due to FRP debonding. ...
Fatigue Bond Characteristics and Degradation of Near-Surface Mounted CFRP Rods and Strips in Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study investigates the bond characteristics and degradation under fatigue loading of near-surface mounted (NSM) carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) rods and strips embedded in concrete. Thirty-six concrete block ...
Fatigue Bond Characteristics and Degradation of Near-Surface Mounted CFRP Rods and Strips in Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study investigates the bond characteristics and degradation under fatigue loading of near-surface mounted (NSM) carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) rods and strips embedded in concrete. Thirty-six concrete block ...
Assessing the Strengthening Effect of Various Near-Surface-Mounted FRP Reinforcements on Concrete Bridge Slab Overhangs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The near-surface-mounted (NSM) method has proved to be a reliable alternative to the existing externally bonded (EB) method for the repair and strengthening of concrete structures using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) ...
Cohesive Model-Based Approach for Fatigue Life Prediction of Reinforced-Concrete Structures Strengthened with NSM FRP
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a fatigue-life prediction model of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with near-surface mounted (NSM) fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite rods under flexure. This model is based on the ...
Fatigue Behavior and Prediction of NSM CFRP-Strengthened Reinforced Concrete Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, a total of 16 reinforced concrete beams (dimensions of
Single Crack–Based Model for FRP Shear-Strengthened RC Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, a single crack–based model is proposed for predicting the contribution of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement to the shear resistance of FRP shear-strengthened reinforced concrete beams. This critical ...
Impact Response of Externally Strengthened Unreinforced Masonry Walls Using CFRP
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Research reported herein investigates the out-of-plane impact resistance of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites, externally applied in sheets to one face of ...
