Abstract: The ease with which fabric‐reinforced cement mortar laminates can be folded leads to studying the behavior of folded plate structural shapes made by this method. Sandwich panels having fabric‐reinforced cement mortar faces ...

Abstract: Nondestructive test methods are evaluted for predicting the buckling capacity and buckling location of fabric‐reinforced concrete shells. The load‐deformation methods consist of measuring vertical deflections of 10—20 ...

Abstract: This research investigates the effect of externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer composite strips and fabric to the soffit of scaled slabs. Thirteen slabs of size 2,290 × 480 × 102 mm were tested to failure with varying ...

Abstract: This paper reports on an experimental research project concerning the poststrengthening of concrete slabs with externally bonded carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP). The two problems studied were strengthening in order ...
