Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) plate strengthening relies critically upon the adhesive that is used to bond it to the existing structure. A typical two-part ambient-cure epoxy adhesive for structural strengthening has a ...

Abstract: The thermal propagation through tensile cracks in reinforced concrete beams is examined experimentally. A comparison is made between the rate of thermal propagation through beams that are undamaged, beams that have minor ...

Abstract: Extensive research on fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) confinement strengthening for concrete columns has led to a good understanding of, and accurate models for, circular columns subjected to axial load. This research is ...
