Flexural strength is an important mechanical property used in the selection of application area natural building stones. The flexural stones our country determined according to test standards prepared by European Union. According TS EN 12372, recommended sample dimensions for determination are 50×50×300 mm. However, generally, 20-30 mm thick plates flooring, cladding, and exterior applications ...

Externally bonding steel plates is a common method for strengthening old bridges. Structural features and diseases of T-beam bridge are described. The project Erdao River Bridge was taken as an example. Based on static load test, changes deflection stress studied at the bottom RC T-beams strengthened by externally in loading process. Numerical simulation also carried out. results test show that...

In order to explore the influence of length and width CFRP as well anchor spacing on reinforcement effectiveness plates concrete beams (RC beams) under secondary load, 7 anchored damaged FRP reinforced are used test beams, 1 unanchored beam is a control beam, structural indicators such ultimate load bending strength analyzed in result. The conclusion that composite plate can effectively prevent...
