RISConcrete Cover Failure in FRP Reinforced Beams under Thermal Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars as a substitute for traditional steel rebars represents a very effective solution for reinforced concrete structures in corrosive environments. However, a better understanding ...
Structural Performances of Concrete Beams with Hybrid (Fiber-Reinforced Polymer-Steel) Reinforcements
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The paper analyzes the structural behavior of concrete beams reinforced with hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)-steel reinforcements. The analysis refers to concrete beams reinforced with FRP rebars placed near the outer ...
Bond Performances of FRP Rebars-Reinforced Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The structural performance of reinforced concrete elements is related to the interface behavior of rebars to concrete. In the last decade several research works were carried out to investigate the bond between fiber-reinforced ...
Structural Upgrading of Masonry Columns by Using Composite Reinforcements
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Emerging techniques that use fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites for strengthening and conservation of historic masonry are becoming increasingly accepted. In the last decades steel plates or wood frames were used ...
FRP Confinement of Square Masonry Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The problem of masonry columns subjected to structural deficiency under axial load was studied and reported in this paper. The results of an extensive experimental campaign are presented in order to show the behavior of ...
Modeling of Steel-Reinforced Grout Composite System-to-Concrete Bond Capacity Using Artificial Neural Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of externally bonded composite systems is recognized as an effective solution for strengthening existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Steel-reinforced grout (SRG) is an attractive option, because of its ...
Wet Lay-Up Manufactured FRPs for Concrete and Masonry Repair: Influence of Water on the Properties of Composites and on Their Epoxy Components
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The assessment of durability of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs), used to strengthen masonry or concrete structures, if subjected to weathering is a knotty problem. Environmental factors can have a significant effect on ...
MID 1.1: Database for Characterization of the Lateral Behavior of Infilled Frames
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Research on infilled reinforced concrete frames is fundamental for the vulnerability assessment of existing buildings. The analysis of the interaction between infill and frame is an open issue in performance-based earthquake ...
Experimental Study on Bond Behavior in Fiber-Reinforced Concrete with Low Content of Recycled Steel Fiber
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Uniaxial Experimental Tests on Full-Scale Limestone Masonry Columns Confined with Glass and Basalt FRCM Systems
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A large number of masonry buildings have been designed to sustain gravity loads or with reference to obsolete seismic provisions. Columns are among the weakest elements, especially in historical buildings. Many experiments ...
