Uptake induced swelling and thermal expansion of CFRP tendons
(Institute of Civil EngineersProceedings of ICE, Structures and Buildings, 2009)
Carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) tendons can be used as a corrosion-resistant alternative to steel for reinforcing or prestressing concrete in aggressive marine environments. The design lives of many civil marine ...
Efficient CFRP strap configurations for the shear strengthening of RC T-beams
(American Society of Civil EngineersASCE Journal of Composites for Construction, 2009)
A prestressed carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strap retrofitting system has been found to significantly enhance the shear capacity of existing reinforced concrete beams. In previous studies, the CFRP straps were ...
Modelling of an unbonded CFRP strap shear retrofitting system for RC beams
(American Society of Civil EngineersASCE Journal of Composites for Construction, 2009)
A retrofitting technique has been developed that uses carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) straps to increase the shear capacity of reinforced concrete beams. The vertical straps are not bonded to the beam but are instead ...
