The environmental exposure dramatically influences the performance of externally applied
Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) in the long run. Temperature and humidity are two common …

To prevent premature delamination of FRP sheets in strengthened concrete structures, this
study explores a novel method of laying a composite layer of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) …

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) is widely used in the repair and strengthening of concrete
structures, owing to its high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent mechanical properties, and …

Shape memory alloy (SMA) is a material that can change shape in response to external
stimuli such as temperature, stress, or magnetic fields. SMA types include nitinol (nickel …

Externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer (EB-FRP) composites have been extensively
used to strengthen existing concrete structures; however, debonding failure often prevents …

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 …

Concerns have been expressed regarding the issue of using conventional steel rebar in civil
engineering structures. One contributing factor is the corrosion that occurred on the steel …

This paper shows the effect of fibre-reinforced polymer strengthening on the behaviour of
reinforced concrete beams under pure torsion. Two RC beams of 150mm× 250mm× …

Basalt and its reinforcement fibers are highly resistance of corrosion, increasing life and
fabrication cost also less to enhance the shear and flexural strength. Even though, previous …
