...Yousef Al Rjoub; Ala Obaidat; Ahmed Ashteyat; Khalid Alshboul Purpose This study aims to conduct an experimental study and finite element model (FEM) to investigate the flexural behavior of heat-damaged beams strengthened/repaired by hybrid fiber-reinforced polymers (HFRP). Design/methodology...

...Danie Roy Anasco Bastin; Umesh Kumar Sharma; Pradeep Bhargava Purpose The main aim of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of various strengthening techniques in restoring the structural performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams damaged by elevated temperatures. Design...

...Mark Green; Kevin Hollingshead; Noureddine Bénichou This paper considers the fire performance of concrete beams and columns that have been strengthened with fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs). Results from four recent full-scale tests are presented. A newly developed type of insulation was employed...

...A. Roy; U. Sharma; P. Bhargava The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of different strengthening schemes in strengthening heat damaged reinforced concrete short columns. A series of 63 heat damaged specimens were tested under concentric compression after jacketing externally...

...Mohannad Naser; Rami Hawileh; Hayder Rasheed This paper presents a numerical study that investigates the performance of reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams externally strengthened with carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates when subjected to fire loading. A finite element (FE) model...
