Debonding of Vegetal FRCM from Concrete Beams Subjected to Bending Loads
Key Engineering Materials, 2022 The increasing need of society to develop more sustainable and renewable materials has made vegetal fibers an interesting potential substitute for synthetic fibers in strengthening systems, due to their considerable strength and deformation capacity. This paper aims to increase the knowledge on how the materials interact between them in vegetal FRCM ...
