The present study experimentally and numerically investigates the behavior of ten self-
compacting reinforced concrete (SCRC) beams strengthened by various means of externally …

The fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) elements with
torsional deficiencies has not yet been extensively studied. Existing studies have primarily …

Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) retrofit reinforced concrete (RC) structures. ABAQUS finite
element software was used to perform numerical parametric analysis on a group of RC …

The concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) column circumferentially confined by carbon fibre
reinforced polymer (CFRP), ie CFRP-CFST column, is a promising structural member in …

The strength of reinforced concrete members can be enhanced using externally bonded
reinforcement (EBR) and near surface mounted (NSM) methods. However, small number of …

Monotonic and repeated torsional loading frequently occur in many concrete structures. The
loading and unloading action of repeated torsion places structures under greater damage …

Three strengthening methods for RC beam-column joints using NSM steel bars and NSM
CFRP strips were experimentally evaluated by cyclic loading. These methods increase joints …

This study investigates three models to predict the torsional strength of FRP-strengthened
reinforced concrete (RC) structural beams: artificial neural network (ANN), nonlinear …

The strength of reinforced concrete members can be enhanced by using the externally
bonded reinforcement (EBR) and near‐surface mounted (NSM) methods. However, very few …

The performance of externally applied wraps to simply supported reinforced concrete (RC)
beams under pure torsion has been well-defined in the literature. In most cases, the …
