Residual Behavior of Sandwich Panels with Flax FRP Faces and Foam Cores after an Impact Event
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019-04-24)
polymer (FFRP) faces which have been subjected to impact loading will be investigated. The sandwich panels tested in this study were fabricated using a closed cell polyisocyanurate foam with a density of 64 kg/m3 and faces ...
Impact Behavior of Sustainable Sandwich Panels with Flax FRP Faces and Cardboard Cores
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019-04-03)
Structural sandwich panels have been shown to be effective for use as building cladding materials due to their low weight and high relative strength and stiffness. To increase the sustainability of these panels natural and ...
Self-Healing Concrete: A Review of Recent Research Developments and Existing Research Gaps
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE), 2019-06-12)
Self-healing materials are defined as the materials that are able to partially or completely restore their original functionality after they have been damaged. In cementitious materials, such as concrete, this concept is ...
Application of Recycled Gypsum Wallboards in Cement Mortar
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE), 2019-06-12)
Gypsum is a naturally formed mineral that is already known to be added to cement at small percentages in order to reduce the speed of reaction with water, however it seems that substantial technical research has not been ...
Post-impact residual strength and resilience of sandwich panels with natural fiber composite faces
(Elsevier, 2011-06-01)
In this paper, the post-impact residual flexural behavior of sandwich panels with flax fiber-reinforced polymer (FFRP) faces and polyisocyanurate (PIR) foam cores is investigated experimentally. The faces were manufactured ...
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 ...
Experimental and Analytical Behaviour of Sandwich Composites with Glass Fiber-reinforced Polymer Facings and Layered Fiber Mat Cores
(SAGE, 2020-07-06)
This paper presents the results of experimental and analytical studies on the behaviour of sandwich beams fabricated with layered cores and glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite facings. The GFRP facings were ...
Behavior of Slender GFRP Reinforced Concrete Columns
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019-04-24)
This paper presents an experimental and analytical study on slender concrete columns reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars. The experimental program included ten concrete columns with rectangular ...
Long-Term Tensile Properties of Natural Fibre-Reinforced Polymer Composites: Comparison of Flax and Glass Fibres
(Elsevier, 2016-06)
Despite of significant research on the mechanical properties of fibre-reinforced polymer composites made of natural fibres, long-term performance of the natural fibre composites against moisture and other environmental ...
Green Sandwich Composites Fabricated from Flax FRP Facings and Corrugated Cardboard Cores
(2017-11-27)
Composite sandwich beams and panels made of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) and lightweight, low-density core materials have been shown to be effective in reducing weight and increasing strength and stiffness in a variety ...
