Fire Endurance of Concrete Elements Reinforced with GFRP Bars
Advanced Materials Research, 2013 Fire engineering is primarily to prevent loss of life or injury during a fire. Obviously the best way to achieve this is to prevent ignition, minimizing fire spread and smoke, dying the fire before it has fully developed. When this is not possible, when the fire is fully developed, structural elements must guarantee sufficient fire resistance.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The use of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) in precast tunnel segments is among the most established and representative applications of this material. Over the past two decades, numerous tunnel linings were constructed with partial or total substitution of conventional steel reinforcement by fibers, this yielding to quantifiable benefits in ...

Fibres for enhancing of the bond capacity between GFRP rebar and concrete [PDF]
, 2014 The effect of steel fibres (SF) and macro-polypropylene fibres (PPA) on the bond capacity between GFRP rebar and concrete has been studied in this work. A novel method using the equivalent bond strength to evaluate the bond toughness is proposed.

Effect of Designed 3D Reinforcement in Mitigating Machining Damage on CFRP Plates
Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 7, Page 6773-6784, 10 April 2026.Effect of Edge Tufting on Surface Quality, Damage, and Mechanical Performance in CFRP Machining: A Comparative Topographical and Structural Analysis. ABSTRACT Composite materials made of carbon fiber‐reinforced epoxy (CFRP) are widely used in aerospace fields due to their high strength‐to‐weight ratio. However, due to low out‐of‐plane resistance, these
