Abstract

This paper discusses the flexural strength of reinforced concrete beams of square cross section, exposed to fire during different times. After being exposed to fire the beams were left to cool at room temperature [...]

Abstract

Fibre-reinforced polymers (FRP) are extensively used in the marine industry for the manufacture of lightweight hull structures for vessels up to 50m in length, and for secondary structures and components in larger vessels. The main benefits resulting in the application of FRP in [...]

Abstract

Mineral-impregnated carbon fibre reinforcement (MCF) has attracted increasing attention due to its low-cost, easy manufacturing, high temperature and chloride resistance, when it replaces traditional steel reinforcement for concrete construction. Considering its excellent electrical [...]

Abstract

This study evaluates the flexural strength and ductility of one-way concrete slab panels reinforced with deformed bar and welded wire under the application of pure bending. An experimental database of flexural strength and ductility for a set of three slab panels reinforced with [...]
