Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive overview of recent developments in the performance evaluation and flexural response of existing bridges from fundamental concepts to advanced topics. The focus is particularly on the ...

Abstract: A technique for strengthening damaged concrete beams using prestressed carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets was developed at Queen’s University and the Royal Military College of Canada. As part of this study, an ...

Abstract: This paper presents the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with prestressed carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets using nonmetallic anchor systems. The developed nonmetallic anchor systems ...

Abstract: This paper presents a novel anchoring technique for strengthening reinforced concrete beams with prestressed carbon fiber- reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. Permanent steel anchors are commonly used for the application of ...

Abstract: Research into the use of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) in structures at the Royal Military College of Canada (RMC) during the past two decades has largely focused on two important military engineering goals—mobility and ...

Abstract: This paper describes detailed flexural behavior, including live load distributions, of a four-span prestressed concrete girder bridge supported by

Abstract: This paper presents the lateral load distribution of various North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) wheeled military trucks on a simple-span steel I-girder bridge

Abstract: This paper presents a study on the flexural behavior of two-way reinforced concrete slabs externally strengthened with prestressed or nonprestressed carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. Four large-scale flat plate slabs
