Bond durability between fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars and concrete is a significant point of concern with respect to structural integrity, performance, and retrofit purposes. This …
The punching shear resistance mechanism of reinforced concrete slabs with glass fiber-reinforced polymers (GFRP-RC) is weaker than that of steel-RC slabs. The reduced shear …
The paper provides an overview of the current research on bond performance between fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes and SWSSC and investigates the bond strength of SWSSC-…
Employing hybrid glass-carbon FRP tubes in concrete-filled FRP tubes for marine applications offers a balance between durability and cost-effectiveness, making them ideal for harsh, …
This study investigates the fracture behavior of fiber-reinforced seawater sea-sand concrete (FR-SWSSC), focusing on the impact of fiber hybridization on fracture toughness properties …
GFRP stirrups are a promising alternative to conventional steel stirrups due to their non-corrosive nature. However, their performance under cyclic exposure to wet-dry and freeze–thaw …
Despite the superior mechanical and durability properties, the higher cost of carbon, compared to other fibre options, remains a major concern in the widespread use of carbon fibre-…
Glass fibre-reinforced polymers (GFRP) have shown promising applications in precast concrete columns. Under extreme loading events, these columns may experience structural …
Recycling end-of-life plastics and tyres into asphalt binders offers a sustainable pathway to reduce waste while enhancing pavement performance. This paper presents a unified …
Fiber-reinforced seawater sea-sand concrete (FR-SWSSC), a sustainable alternative to traditional concrete, requires evaluation of its flexural performance under cyclic loading, critical …
