The use of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) to strength existing reinforced concrete
(RC) structures in flexure has been explored in recent decades. As UHPC developed in …

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 …

In recent decades, several studies have considered the use of plastic waste as a partial
substitute for aggregate in green concrete. Such concrete has been limited to non-structural …

Presenting a wealth of completely revised examples and new information, Introduction to
Composite Materials Design, Second Edition greatly improves on the bestselling first edition …

A novel column consisting of steel, concrete and fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) is presented
and assessed through experimental study. The sectional form of steel–concrete–FRP …

The research aims to enhance the ductility characteristics of ultra-high performance concrete
fibre material (UHPC-FM) comprising with different micro-synthetic fibres such as basalt fibre …

Different from the typical bi-linear stress–strain response, many recent studies have reported
a stress reduction-recovery response (ie, a three-segment behavior of strain hardening …

Due to its superior mechanical properties and durability, ultra-high performance concrete
(UHPC) or ultra-high performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) has emerged as a …

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 …

Many stress–strain models have been developed for fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP)–
confined concrete. These models fall into two categories:(a) design-oriented models in …
