Masonry wall panels retrofitted with thermal-insulating GFRP-reinforced jacketing [PDF]

, 2015
Today there is a need to provide thermally efficient walls, while at the same time to increase the mechanical properties of old unreinforced masonry walls that will not require large amounts of energy in the retrofitting or deconstruction processes.

Mechanical Behaviour of Vacuum‐Infused GFRP Composites at Elevated Temperatures—Influence of Fibre Architecture

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study addresses the influence of fibre architecture on the mechanical properties of vacuum‐infused glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites at elevated temperatures (ET). Laminates with three different fibre configurations—unidirectional (UD), bidirectional 0°/90° cross‐ply (BD), and ±45° off‐axis angle‐ply (OA) – were tested in ...

Experimental Comparative Analysis of Hole‐Making Strategies and Cutting Parameters on Flexural Properties and Induced Delamination in S2 Glass and Basalt Fiber‐Reinforced Polymers

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Hole‐making strategy and machining parameters influence delamination and hole quality in S2‐glass and basalt FRP composites, which subsequently affet flexural performance. Improved hole integrity leads to enhanced structural performance during three‐point bending.

Investigation of Circular Hollow Concrete Columns Reinforced with GFRP Bars and Spirals

Buildings, 2023
Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforcements are useful alternatives to traditional steel bars in concrete structures, particularly in vertical structural elements such as columns, as they are less prone to corrosion, and impart increasing ...
