Flexure behaviour of strengthened steel poles [PDF]
WIT Transactions on The Built Environment, 2012 Steel poles are widely used in several applications such as telecommunication, transmission and distribution, street lighting, and highway signs to name a few. It is not uncommon for a pole owner to request the addition of new equipment, attachments, etc. which can render the existing pole unsafe. If it is possible to strengthen the pole to accommodate

Relaxation of Flexure‐Induced Strengthening of Ice
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 AbstractIncreasing fetch as sea ice retreats with global warming is increasing the amplitude of ocean waves, motivating the need for a better understanding of the impact of episodic flexing on the strength of ice. Unexpectedly, recent studies showed that the flexural strength of ice increases by as much as a factor of two or more upon cyclic loading ...

Evaluation of Flexural Behavior of Textile-Reinforced Mortar-Strengthened RC Beam Considering Strengthening Limit [PDF]
Materials, 2021 Textile-reinforced mortar (TRM) is a strengthening material in which textiles are attached to reinforced concrete (RC) structures using an inorganic matrix. Although many studies on structural behavior, various factors that affect TRM behavior could not be determined clearly.

Toughness of Timber Beams Strengthened with Jute Fibers
Tikrit Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2020 This research involves investigating the toughness behavior of timber beams strengthened by jute fibers with various forms of strengthening. Ten timber specimens with dimensions (70×100×1000) mm are divided into four groups and loaded under a third point

Strain of newly – developed composites relationship in flexural tests [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2018 Extending service life and preventing demolition of existing structures are the primary goals of structural strengthening and rehabilitation. Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have been the most common type of composite in the realm of structural
