RISArtificial Neural Network Predictions of Fatigue Life of Steel Bars Based on Hysteretic Energy
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The fatigue life of steel reinforcing bars depends on the energy dissipated during cyclic loading. Steel bars play a major role in energy dissipation in reinforced concrete structures under low-cycle fatigue loading during ...
RC Columns Strengthened with NSM-CFRP Strips and CFRP Wraps under Axial and Uniaxial Bending: Experimental Investigation and Capacity Models
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The efficiency of the use of near-surface mounted (NSM) carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips confined with CFRP wraps to strengthen reinforced concrete (RC) columns will be experimentally and analytically investigated ...
Contribution of Longitudinal NSM-CFRP Bars on the Shear Strength of RC Beams with Varying Depths and Concrete Strengths
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To assess experimentally the effect of flexural near surface mounted (NSM) carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) bars mounted on the sides of beams on the shear strength of reinforced concrete (RC) beams, 18 shear-deficient ...
Influence of CFRP Spike Anchors on the Performance of Flexural CFRP Sheets Externally Bonded to Concrete
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are widely used in the strengthening and retrofitting of reinforced concrete (RC) members to enhance their flexural and shear capacities. Strengthening with FRP systems has been ...
Shear Strengthening of Reinforced Concrete T-Beams with Anchored CFRP Laminates
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Strengthening of existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures by externally bonding carbon fiber–reinforced polymers (CFRP) applied to the concrete substrate has proven to be effective in enhancing the shear capacity of ...
Durability of the Bond between CFRP Plates and Concrete Exposed to Harsh Environments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Strengthening and retrofitting structural members using carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) materials has gained wide acceptance in the civil engineering community because of their superior mechanical properties, light ...
Experimental Investigation and Modeling of the Thermal Effect on the Mechanical Properties of Polyethylene-Terephthalate FRP Laminates
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Recent advancements in material sciences have led to the development of new fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) systems that, unlike traditional FRPs, are specifically tailored to have large fracture strains that are advantageous ...
