fiber reinforced polymers (frp) have widely used for the purposes of enhances strength and ductility of concrete columns. proper design of such hybrid columns, however, requires a better recognition of the behavior of concrete columns confined with frp. in this paper, the influence of frp thickness, concrete compressive strength, and column size on the performance of eccentrically loaded reacti...

Corrosion cracking of reinforced concrete caused by chloride salt is one of the main determinants of structure durability. Monitoring the entire process of concrete corrosion cracking is critical for assessing the remaining life of the structure and determining if maintenance is needed. Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensing technology is extensively developed in photoelectric monitoring technology ...

The paper presents review of research work experimental investigation on polypropylene fibre reinforced concrete and concrete with artificial sand. Use of fiber reinforce polymer in civil engineering increase rapidly. Various type of fiber is used such as glass, carbon, steel, asbestos, polyester and polypropylene. The various experimental investigations for determination of properties of polyp...

Several building codes are available for the design of concrete structures reinforced with FRP; nevertheless knowledge on their structural behavior in case of fire is lack and no reliable design method is available. The experimental data available in the literature about the behavior of fiber-reinforced composite materials as well as of concrete slabs reinforced with FRP bars or grids at high t...

abstract self compacting concrete (scc) is a new construction material in the world. the aim of this research is to construct self compacting concrete with high compressive strength using combination of nano silica and micro silica. for this purpose, nano silica, micro silica, portland cement type 2, superplasticizer (sp), and gravel and sand have been used. three different groups of samples wi...
