During the past few decades, strengthening and rehabilitation of reinforced concrete (RC)
structures using fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have been considered one of the …

Abstract Pultruded Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers (PGFRPs) have been increasingly used
in the field of engineering construction. In civil engineering structures, mechanical …

Fibre-reinforced polymers have been increasingly used to strengthen reinforced concrete
structures. However, premature brittle debonding failures may occur at the ends of externally …

This study examines an advanced material called High Strength Fiber Reinforced Polymer
Composite (HSFRPC). The flexural characteristics of RC beams with dimensions of 2000× …

In the construction industry, there is growing attention of using effective external
strengthening techniques such as bonding of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) …

Studies on externally bonded fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthened/laminated
reinforced concrete (RC) beams have been exhaustively carried out in recent past decades …

In recent years, the most important challenges in the field of structural engineering are the
repair and rehabilitation of structural members of existing buildings and bridges …

The loss of composite action at the negative moment region for a continuous composite
girder reduces the girder's strength and stiffness. This paper presents an experimental …

The reduced life span of RC structures is mainly due to the corrosion of the steel
reinforcement. Hence, there is a need to consider alternate materials. In the present study …

One of the major challenges and contemporary research in the field of structural engineering
is strengthening of existing structural elements using readily available materials in the …
