Abstract: Currently, considerable interest exists in the use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement for concrete structures. Due to the generally lower modulus of elasticity of FRP in comparison with steel and the linear ...

Abstract: The use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) grid reinforcement for concrete slabs has been investigated, considering the behavior of the slabs in one-way bending and under concentrated loading. The behavior under the latter ...

Abstract: Externally bonded laminates of fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) are becoming more and more common for rehabilitation and strengthening of RC structures, to solve problems either in serviceability or at ultimate conditions. ...

Abstract: The comparatively weak performance of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthened members under fire exposure is a primary factor hindering the application of FRP strengthening in buildings in which fire risk is not ...

Abstract: To investigate monitoring of concrete members by integrating fiber optic technology, a series of static and dynamic loading tests have been conducted on a posttensioned concrete girder with a span of

Abstract: Despite the extensive research on the debonding behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthening systems, no standard methodology has been established on its experimental characterization. To assess the performance ...
