Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The field of reinforced concrete (RC) strengthening continues to evolve as the construction industry seeks cost‐effective and sustainable alternatives to structural replacement. This study, therefore, aimed to comprehensively investigate the pioneering application of steel‐reinforced grout (SRG) for strengthening large‐scale, 3.5‐meter‐long ...

Performance of Hybrid Reinforced Concrete Beam Column Joint: A Critical Review
Fibers, 2016 Large residual strain in reinforced concrete structures after a seismic event is a major concern for structural safety and serviceability. Alternative reinforcement materials like fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) have been widely used to mitigate corrosion

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The preservation of reinforced concrete masterpieces from the 20th century poses a complex challenge. These structures often combine architectural, historical, and technological value, which standard engineering codes and conservation practices are not fully equipped to address. The Erasmus+ REcube project responded to this gap by promoting an

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping technology is commonly used to enhance the compressive strength (CS) of reinforced concrete (RC) members. Accurate prediction of the compressive strength of FRP‐confined concrete columns is crucial for optimizing structural design and helps reduce the time and costs associated with physical testing ...

Numerical analysis of debonding behavior of FRP sheets bonded to concrete focusing on mortar skin
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This paper proposes a novel simple method for finite element analysis (FEA) to simulate the debonding behavior of fiber‐reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets bonded to concrete. This study focuses on the mortar skin of the concrete surface layer, which fails during FRP sheet debonding.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract In practice, reinforced concrete (RC) wall‐like columns often have openings to facilitate building services, which creates stress concentrations around the opening, resulting in the weakening of their load‐carrying capacity. This study proposes innovative strengthening methods using near‐surface mounted (NSM) incorporating steel materials to ...
