Hybrid system of longitudinal CFRP laminates and GFRP wraps for strengthening of existing circular concrete columns
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 ... -
Post-impact residual strength and resilience of sandwich panels with natural fiber composite faces
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 ... -
Experimental and analytical investigations of the flexural behavior of hollow ±55° filament wound GFRP tubes
The behavior of ±55° filament wound glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) tubes under flexural loading was examined experimentally and analytically. A total of 15 tubes were tested under four-point bending. The main test ... -
Guidelines for cold-regions groundwater numerical modeling
The impacts of ongoing climate warming on cold‐regions hydrogeology and groundwater resources have created a need to develop groundwater models adapted to these environments. Although permafrost is considered relatively ... -
Experimental Investigation of Short and Slender Rectangular Concrete Columns Reinforced with GFRP Bars under Eccentric Axial Loads
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 ... -
Axial Behavior of Innovative Sand-Coated GFRP Piles in Cohesionless Soil
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 ... -
Numerical Modeling of the Lateral Behavior of Concrete-Filled FRP Tube Piles in Sand
In this study, a numerical model is developed to study concrete-filled FRP tube (CFFT) pile behavior and interactions with foundation soil under lateral loading. The model, based on nonlinear finite element analysis (NFEA) ... -
1g model tests of vertically loaded GFRP piles
The conventional piling materials (i.e., concrete, steel, wood) are more likely to have durability problems (i.e., corrosion, degradation, deterioration) in harsh environments and offshore construction. Fiber-reinforced ... -
Simplified Material Model for Concrete Containing High-Content of Tire-Derived Coarse Aggregate under Compression Loading
The flexible properties of the shredded rubber tires give rubberized concrete desirable properties such as lower relative density, and better dampening ability, higher toughness, and improved deformability resulting in an ... -
Recycled gypsum powder from waste drywalls combined with fly ash for partial cement replacement in concrete
Recent developments towards sustainable infrastructure have motivated more environmentally conscious construction practices. The concrete industry is known to have a large carbon footprint, which can be decreased by reducing ... -
Experimental and Analytical Behaviour of Sandwich Composites with Glass Fiber-reinforced Polymer Facings and Layered Fiber Mat Cores
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 ... -
Hybrid FRP Strengthening of Slender Steel Members for Buckling Control
In this paper, the structural properties and behaviour of slender steel members strengthened against buckling by a hybrid system of fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) shells filled with self-consolidating grout (SCG), in the ... -
Flexural and shear characteristics of bio-based sandwich beams made of hollow and foam-filled paper honeycomb cores and flax fiber composite skins
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
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 ... -
Structural Behavior of Sandwich Beams with Flax Fiber–Reinforced Polymer Faces and Cardboard Cores under Monotonic and Impact Loads
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 ... -
Parametric study of the flexural behaviour of sandwich panels with flax FRP faces and foam cores using finite element analysis
To meet the growing demands for increased sustainability in infrastructure, it is important to consider the use of more environmentally-friendly materials, such as plant-based fibre-reinforced polymers (FRPs). Plant-based ... -
Experimental study of hollow FRP sections under bending
This paper presents an experimental study on hollow, fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) sections subjected to bending. This study is part of an ongoing project, with the eventual goal being to use the sections as a bridge ... -
Mechanical behavior of flax-lime concrete blocks made of waste flax shives and lime binder reinforced with jute fabric
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 ... -
Effects of long shredded rubber particles recycled from waste tires on mechanical properties of concrete
The goal of this research is to study the mechanical properties of recycled rubber particles extracted from scrap tires in concrete to introduce a sustainable waste management system and subsequently to reduce the use of ...
