An important application of FRP composites is as a confining material for concrete, in both
the seismic retrofit of existing reinforced concrete columns and in the construction of …

The experimental results for the behaviour of concrete columns confined by both steel
spirals and fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) are presented. A total of fifty-six columns were …

A large number of experimental studies have been conducted over the last two decades to
understand the behavior of FRP-confined concrete columns. This paper presents a …

Abstract Nowadays, Fiber Reinforced Polymers are extensively applied in the field of civil
engineering due to their advantageous proprieties such as high strength-to-weight ratio and …

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) jacketing has become an attractive technique for
strengthening/retrofitting reinforced concrete (RC) columns. Extensive research has been …

Accurate prediction of stress–strain relationship of concrete is of vital importance to
accurately predict the overall structural behavior of reinforced concrete members. The …

This paper presents a unified stress–strain model of concrete for circular, square, and
rectangular columns confined by fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) jackets. Through the …

Large rupture strain fiber-reinforced polymers (LRS FRPs)(eg, with an elongation larger than
5%) provide ideal confinement for seismic retrofit of concrete columns. Most of existing …

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the behavior of axially loaded
short rectangular columns that have been strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer …

To study the compressive behavior of rectangular concrete-filled fiber reinforced polymer
(FRP)-steel composite tube (CFCT) columns, twenty-nine specimens were tested under …
