Modern building materials must fulfill not only functional performance criteria but also reduce the environmental impact accompanied by their production. Within past decades, fiber-reinforced have been found to be promising and durable that can utilized in various fields. Among a wide range of reinforcement types, basalt fibers introduced as an alternative broadly used steel fibers. As informed...

Natural fibers, including mineral and plant fibers, are increasingly used for polymer composite materials due to their low environmental impact. In this paper, thermographic non-destructive inspection techniques were used to evaluate and characterize basalt, jute/hemp and bagasse fibers composite panels. Different defects were analyzed in terms of impact damage, delaminations and resin abnormal...

One of the main disadvantages steel bars is rebar corrosion, especially when they are exposed to aggressive environmental conditions such as marine environments. suggested ways solve this problem use composite bars. However, these ambiguous due some weaknesses, low modulus elasticity and linear behavior in tensile tests. In research, effect hybridization process on mechanical behavior, includin...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact fiber types, binder content, and their dosage rates on volumetric properties laboratory performance asphalt mixtures. One mixture (control) three types (Basalt, Fiberglass, Carbon) were used. Two different considered 0.15% (recommended rate) 0.30% by total weight. Furthermore, a novel experimental methodology developed implemented consisting ...
