Different approaches were adapted to strength the structural elements increase load capacity and reduce deformation such as deflection. The easiest light external strengthening of reinforced concrete members are Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) family Armed, Carbon, Glass Basalt, respectively. This paper presents theoretical approach check out experimental tests beams strengthened by glass fiber ...

Composite reinforcing bars (rebars) that are used in concrete members with high performance (strength and durability) properties could have beneficial effects on the behavior of these members. This is especially vital when a building is constructed in an aggressive environment, for instance a corrosive environment. Although tension capacity/weight (or volume) ratios in composite rebars (carbon ...

Abstract Mostly used material is concrete which has versatile quality for construction works. Fibrous have significant factor that improve the scale and value to humid environments with role. Day by day abundant demand use of increasing. It considered as a 2 nd largest building due major productivity. By fibrous concrete, some bonding environmental issues been addressed. Keeping in this view, a...

The aim of this investigation was to measure the flexural and compressive strengths and the corresponding moduli of cylindrical composite specimens reinforced with woven glass fiber. Test specimens were made by light-curing urethane dimethacrylate oligomer with woven glass fiber of 0.18-mm standard thickness. Tests were conducted using four reinforcement methods and two specimen diameters. Flex...

Waste management is becoming a major issue for communities worldwide. Glass, being nonbiodegradable, is not suitable for addition to landfill, and as such recycling opportunities need to be investigated. Due to the high material consumption of the construction industry, the utilisation of waste glass as a partial replacement for fine aggregate in structural concrete is particularly attractive. ...
