Fire resistance of FRP reinforced glulam beams
Thin laminates made of high-strength pultruded fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) are increasingly being used to reinforce glue-laminated timber (glulam) beams, creating a new composite glulam (FRP glulam) significantly stronger in bending than a conventional (unreinforced) glulam of equal size. Large timber members have long been recognized for maintaining structural integrity in fires and this p...
متن کاملCommercialization of FRP reinforced glulam beam technology
Thin laminates made of high-strength pultruded fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) have been developed to reinforce gluelaminated timber (glulam) beams. The FRP reinforced glulams are significantly stiffer, stronger, and have less variation in bending strength than a conventional (unreinforced) glulam of equal size. Following the technical development and model building code approval of design proc...
متن کاملRetrofit of Un-Reinforced Infill Masonry Walls with FRP
This paper describes an experimental program that deals with retrofitting of infill un-reinforced masonry walls (URM) with Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP). The primary objective of this research is to develop a retrofit strategy that while economical will minimize the influence of the retrofit on the overall performance of structural frames in predominant seismic regions. Allowing some damage to...
متن کاملAxial Compressive Strength of Reinforced Concrete Columns Wrapped with Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP)
This paper presents the results of a study on the axial compressive strength of columnsstrengthened with FRP wrap. The experimental part of the study included testing 6 reinforcedconcrete columns in two series. The first series comprised three similar circular reinforced concretecolumns strengthened with FRP wrap. The second series consisted of three similar square columns,two with sharp corner...
متن کاملOPTIMAL DESIGN OF TUNNEL SUPPORT LINING USING MCBO ALGORITHM
In this paper, a systematic approach is presented for optimal design of tunnel support lining using two-dimensional finite element analysis models of soil-structure interaction developed in ABAQUS software and the Modified Colliding Bodies Optimization (MCBO) algorithm implemented in MATLAB environment. This approach is then employed to study the influence of variable geometrical and geo-mechan...
