NEW GENERATION POLYMER CONCRETE INCORPORATING CARBON NANOTUBES
Polymer Concrete (PC) is one of three types of polymers in concrete that was introduced in the 1950s and has had many successful civil engineering applications. PC is recognized in the industry as a mix of aggregate and polymer resin with no Portland cement. PC has been favoured over conventional …

An Evaluation of the Durability of Polymer Concrete Bonds to Aluminum Bridge Decks
… evaluate the bond durability of an epoxy-based polymer concrete wearing surface bonded to aluminum bridge decks. In the bridge design, an aluminum alloy bridge deck is used with a polymer concrete wearing surface. A modified mixed mode flexure fracture test was developed to assess the bond …

Behavior of hollow-core fiber reinforced polymer-concrete-steel bridge columns under extreme loading
… quickly-constructed hollow-core fiber reinforced polymer-concrete-steel (HC-FCS) bridge columns under extreme loading. The HC-FCS column consists of a concrete wall sandwiched between an outer fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) tube and an inner steel tube. The steel tube was embedded into a …

Characterisation and refinement of properties of glass fibre reinforced polyester polymer concrete for use in manhole components
… properties of glass fibre reinforced polyester polymer concrete. This material is currently being employed by AV Mouldings (Pty) Ltd. to manufacture manhole and drain components according to specifications existing for cast iron covers. No specification exists for polymer concrete. In particular …
