Shear strength of concrete beams reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer bars without stirrups
… reinforced polymer (FRP) bars as an alternative to steel bars for reinforced concrete (RC) structures is gaining acceptance among the structural engineers. The investigation of structure performance of FRP-RC members has become a critical issue. Extensive researches have been conducted to …

Effect of Severe Corrosion on Lateral Strength of Square RC Bridge Columns
… of steel bars and concrete cover, bond deterioration, reduces anchorage of steel bars, and decreases the confinement by transverse reinforcement. Consequently, corrosion results in drop in the lateral strength of columns. Therefore, studying response of corroded reinforced concrete columns …

Behaviour of continuously supported self-compacting concrete deep beams
The present research is conducted to investigate the structural behaviour of continuously supported deep beams made with SCC. A series of tests on eight reinforced two-span continuous deep beams made with SCC was performed. The main parameters investigated were the shear span-to-depth ratio, the …

Three-dimensional peridynamic modelling of quasi-brittle structural elements
… in the literature, and significant work remains to quantify the predictive accuracy and generality of a peridynamic model. This thesis presents the development and validation of a three-dimensional bond-based peridynamic framework for modelling quasi-brittle structural elements. By following a …

Shear strengthening of reinforced concrete beams with bi-directional carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips and CFRP anchors
… have high tensile strength, the ability to utilize that strength is limited by debonding of the CFRP laminates from the concrete surface. In order to prevent or delay debonding, CFRP anchors were used to provide an alternative means of transferring forces from CFRP strips to the concrete. …

Optimum shear strengthening of reinforced concrete beams
… reinforced polymer (CFRP) straps can be used to strengthen shear deficient reinforced concrete (RC) structures. The strengthening system is associated with a number of parameters including the number of straps, strap locations, strap stiffness, and strap prestress. The initial goal of this …
