Structural Behavior of Sandwich Beams with Flax Fiber–Reinforced Polymer Faces and Cardboard Cores under Monotonic and Impact Loads
(ASCE, 2020-06-01)
To meet the ever-increasing demand for more environmentally conscious building designs, it is important that sustainable building material options be available. Natural and recycled materials can be used in sandwich panels ...
Mechanical behavior of flax-lime concrete blocks made of waste flax shives and lime binder reinforced with jute fabric
(Elsevier, 2020-01-14)
Due to the increase in production of construction materials, the emission of carbon dioxide levels and the requirement for producing materials with a less environmental footprint is gaining more attention. This paper focuses ...
Tensile Properties of PET FRP with Bio-resin Polymer
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, 2021-05-26)
This study analyses the mechanical behaviour of polyethylene terephthalate fiber-reinforced polymer (PET FRP) made with a bio-resin polymer matrix. The utilized bio-resin is furfuryl alcohol mixed with phthaloyl dichloride ...
Experimental Investigation of Short and Slender Rectangular Concrete Columns Reinforced with GFRP Bars under Eccentric Axial Loads
(ASCE, 2020-12-01)
In this paper, the experimental behavior of short and slender concrete columns reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars under eccentric compression loading is presented. A total of 10 large-scale concrete ...
Flexural and shear characteristics of bio-based sandwich beams made of hollow and foam-filled paper honeycomb cores and flax fiber composite skins
(Elsevier, 2020-05-24)
In this paper, bio-based sandwich panels made of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) skins and two types of paper honeycomb core (namely, hollow and foam-filled) with three different thicknesses (namely, 6 mm, 12 mm, and 25 mm) ...
Experiments and nonlinear analysis of the impact behaviour of sandwich panels constructed with flax fibre-reinforced polymer faces and foam cores
(SAGE, 2020-05-14)
As the effects of climate change become more apparent, it is necessary that environmental impact is considered in every aspect of our society, including the design of new infrastructure. The use of natural materials for ...
Hybrid system of longitudinal CFRP laminates and GFRP wraps for strengthening of existing circular concrete columns
(Elsevier, 2021-05-15)
This paper presents an investigation on the behavior of a strengthening system of longitudinal premanufactured carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates and transverse glass FRP (GFRP) wrapping for strengthening of ...
Analytical Investigation of Concrete Beam Reinforced with GFRP Rebars Under Low Axial Loading
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, 2021-05-26)
The main objective of the research presented in this paper was to perform the analytical study to investigate the flexural capacity of the concrete beam reinforced longitudinally and laterally with glass fiber-reinforced ...
Shear and Bending Behaviour of Short-span Steel-reinforced Concrete-filled FRP Tubes with ±55◦ Fiber Orientation
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, 2021-05-26)
In this study, steel-reinforced concrete-filled ±55◦ glass-fiber-reinforced-polymer (GFRP) tubes (CFFT) are examined under monotonic loading to understand their shear behaviour. A total of three test specimens with three ...
Axial Behavior of Innovative Sand-Coated GFRP Piles in Cohesionless Soil
(ASCE, 2020-10-01)
In pile construction, conventional pile materials such as concrete, steel, and wood are frequently subject to soil–substructure interaction durability problems due to corrosion and deterioration. Fiber-reinforced polymers ...
