To date a large number of studies have been carried out on the use of different materials
such as concrete, steel, fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites, to enhance the strength …

Coal gangue concrete (CGC), in which fine and coarse aggregates are completely replaced
by coal gangue aggregates, has been limited to non-structural applications owing to its …

This research investigates the behavior of square concrete columns externally wrapped by
low-cost and easily available fiber rope reinforced polymer (FRRP) composites. This study …

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wraps as external confining device have been employed to
enhance the performance of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns, and the axial …

Given the excessive demolition of structures each year, the issues related to the generated
structural waste are striking. Bricks being a major constituent in the construction industry …

This research paper presents a study on the use of sisal fibre reinforced polymer (SFRP)
composite as a sustainable alternative to artificial fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs) for …

This study experimentally and numerically examines the performance of low‐strength
reinforced concrete (LS RC) columns confined with external post‐tensioned metal straps …

This paper investigates the confinement effects of low-cost glass fiber reinforced polymer
composites on circular concrete columns made with crushed fired clay bricks as coarse …

The results of an experimental program on shear-strengthening of flat slabs using Glass
Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) rods are presented. A total of seven specimens were …

The compressive strength of cylindrical columns of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is
lower than that of equivalent normal concrete columns. Active confinement can recover …
