In the last decades, a growing interest in using basalt as reinforcement for composite
materials has emerged, since promising physico-chemical and mechanical properties of …

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are widely used to reinforce and repair buildings
due to their high strength, corrosion resistance, lightweight, and convenient of construction …

Mortar samples' strength and durability properties can be improved by adding different
pozzolanic materials and fibers to their mixtures against freeze–thaw (FT) periods. For this …

In this study, the mechanical properties of basalt/ramie/polyester hybrid composite laminates
were investigated. A matrix of 45% polyester was used, as it has good bonding properties …

As a building material, concrete has its own advantages and disadvantages. One of the
weaknesses of concrete is its very low tensile strength and strain as well as brittleness under …

The bimetallic steel bar (BSB) consisting of stainless steel (cladding) and carbon steel
(substrate) exhibits outstanding mechanical properties and high corrosion resistance and …

This article presents an experimental study investigating the long-term shear performance of
basalt fiber–reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars wrapped in seawater–sea sand concrete (SSC) …

This study examines the workability, mass loss, relative dynamic modulus of elasticity
(RDME), residual compressive strength (RCS), and residual flexural strength (RFS) of single …

Fly ash ceramsite, a lightweight aggregate, has been widely used in construction field. It is
beneficial to improve the performance of concrete as its internal structure is porous after …

Flexural performance of six groups of beams reinforced with hybrid steel and FRP bars, one
group with steel bars, and a final group with FRP bars was investigated in this paper. Each …
