RISAxial Load Capacity of Concrete-Filled FRP Tube Columns: Experimental versus Theoretical Predictions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the experimental and theoretical results of small and medium-scale concrete-filled fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tube (CFFT) columns. A total of 23 CFFT specimens were tested under axial compression ...
Design and Performance of Reinforced Concrete Water Chlorination Tank Totally Reinforced with GFRP Bars: Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Reinforced-concrete (RC) tanks in water and wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) experience severe corrosion problems resulting from the application of specific treatment methods or chemicals. Municipalities around the world ...
Deflection Prediction of Steel and FRP-Reinforced Concrete-Filled FRP Tube Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of experimental and theoretical investigations that study the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete-filled fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes (RCFFTs) beams. The experimental program ...
Reinforced Concrete Beams with and without FRP Web Reinforcement under Pure Torsion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Because of a lack of research on torsion, the Canadian design codes and AASHTO design specifications do not provide torsion provisions for the design of concrete bridge members reinforced with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) ...
Axial Load–Moment Interaction Diagram of Circular Concrete Columns Reinforced with CFRP Bars and Spirals: Experimental and Theoretical Investigations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: North America’s current design codes and guidelines allow the use of fiber–reinforced polymer (FRP) bars as the primary reinforcement in concrete structures and provide design recommendations for using these bars. Because ...
Experimental Study of Circular High-Strength Concrete Columns Reinforced with GFRP Bars and Spirals under Concentric and Eccentric Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Integrating fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement into high-strength concrete (HSC) would effectively contribute to enhancing the stiffness of cracked concrete sections when the FRP bars are undergoing high strain ...
Measurement of the Thermal Insulation Properties of Fabrics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Methods used to measure the thermal insulation properties of fabrics and the results obtained using these methods are reviewed. The standard methods for measuring thermal insulation properties ...
Torsional Moment Capacity and Failure Mode Mechanisms of Concrete Beams Reinforced with Carbon FRP Bars and Stirrups
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Fiber-reinforced-polymer (FRP) bars and stirrups have emerged as internal flexural and shear reinforcement for reinforced-concrete (RC) members in different applications. Nonetheless, the torsional behavior of FRP RC members ...
Inelastic Second-Order Analysis for Slender GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Columns: Experimental Investigations and Theoretical Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Designing reinforced concrete (RC) columns reinforced entirely with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars requires an explicit definition of the slenderness upper and lower limits for use in code provisions. To date, limited ...
Cracking and Crack Control in Circular Concrete Bridge Members Reinforced with Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Bars
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Serviceability requirements are crucial in the design of fiber-reinforced-polymer (FRP) RC bridge members. Permissible crack width under service loads is one of the requirements that can control design. Crack-control models ...
