Structural Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Columns Fully and Partially Reinforced with GFRP Bars Tested Under Concentric or Eccentric Compressive Loads

Diyala Journal of Engineering Sciences
Concrete columns reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars have been greatly interesting recently. The distinct properties of GFRP bars, such as high tensile strength and low modulus of elasticity compared to steel bars, as well as the ...

Improvement of Composite Beam with Web Opening Using Posttensioning Tendons under Static and Cyclic Loadings

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
In practice, the passage of service utilities through web opening causes a significant load‐carrying capacity loss and introduces a change of failure mode of the composite beam. This study aims to improve the load‐carrying capacity and stiffness of open‐web composite beams subjected to static and cyclic loading using posttensioning tendons.

Fire endurance and residual strength of insulated concrete beams strengthened with near surface mounted reinforcement [PDF]

, 2013
The comparatively weak performance of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthened members under fire exposure is a primary factor hindering the application of FRP strengthening in buildings in which fire risk is not negligible.

CFRP Materials for Restoration of the Bearing Capacity of RC Beams With Damaged Rebar

Journal of Engineering, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Corrosion of the rebar in reinforced concrete (RC) structures is a critical concern, compromising their reliability and long‐term operation. Carbon fibre–reinforced polymer (CFRP) tapes are widely used for strengthening RC structures due to their superior properties such as light weight, high strength and ease of application.

A Key Contribution for Concrete Durability: Harnessing Force‐Magnetic Coupling for Stress State Detection in Reinforced Concrete Beams

Structural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Over the past 20 years, more than 200 major bridge‐collapsed accidents have occurred during their service life. The durability of reinforced concrete (RC) beams is a serious threat to the safety performance of the structures. To accurately grasp the service performance of RC beams, a four‐point bending loading experiment was conducted on RC rectangular

Rehabilitation of a Vehicle Impact Damaged Concrete Bridge Girder with GFRP Rebars

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Overpass bridge girders are susceptible to impact damage of over-height vehicles, creating a traffic hazard and structural deficiency. The repair for a damaged girder has to meet adequate criteria for the safety, repair time and economy.
