Flexural behavior of RC beams externally reinforced with CFRP composites using various strategies
The external composite material bonding is an effective and practical method for flexural strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams, providing a large opportunity to develop high-performance and cost-effective structures.

An experimental investigation of retro-reinforced clay brick arches
This paper describes the laboratory testing of eight 2.95m span segmental profile clay brick arches. Seven of the arches were strengthened with longitudinal intrados (soffit) reinforcement; the eighth was left unreinforced as an experimental control ...

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 ...

Abstract This study introduces an innovative approach to strengthening defected reinforced concrete (RC) columns using externally bonded stainless steel and galvanized steel plates. Unlike conventional strengthening methods, this technique replaces traditional transverse stirrups with steel sheets, providing enhanced confinement and ductility.

Structural Behaviour Of Distressed And Strengthened Post-Tensioned Box Girder Beams [PDF]
Box girder prestressed concrete beams are used widely in bridge construction due to its efficient structural response under flexural as well as torsional loading. Prestressing can be either internally or externally applied to a beam.

Evaluation of strengthening techniques of traditional masonry buildings: case study of a four-building aggregate [PDF]
Increasing appraisal of the durability, conservation state, and changeable use and function of old buildings in urban centers relies a great deal on the structural safety evaluation of vertical load capacity and the ability to resist horizontal forces ...

ABSTRACT Head and neck radiotherapy (HNRT) can expose teeth to moderate radiation doses, yet the effects on root dentine under clinically relevant conditions remain unclear. This in vitro study compared dentine subjected to 0, 30, or 50 Gy IMRT. Palatal roots from 35 maxillary molars were allocated to non‐irradiated, 30 Gy (oropharyngeal simulation ...
