Structural Performance of Wood Plastic Composite Sheet Piling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes the structural performance of an innovative wood plastic composite (WPC) sheet piling. Tensile coupon tests were performed to determine tensile strength and modulus over a range of strain rates for ...
Recycling Large-Format 3D Printed Polymer Composite Formworks Used for Casting Precast Concrete – Technical Feasibility and Challenges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of large-format three-dimensional (3D) printed thermoplastic composites as formworks for precast concrete structures has emerged as a cost-effective solution addressing challenges related to skilled labor shortages ...
Mechanical Property Characterization of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Wood-Polypropylene Composite Panels Manufactured Using a Double Belt Pressing Technology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A novel manufacturing process for wood-polypropylene composite (WPC) panels reinforced with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets was implemented using a double belt pressing technology. FRP sheets were placed on both sides ...
