...Taha A. El-Sayed; Mohamed H. Ahmed; Ali S. Shanour This study examines the cyclic performance of high-performance concrete ( HPC ) columns with hybrid steel-glass fibre-reinforced polymer ( GFRP ) bars, filling a gap in existing research. Six full-scale columns were tested under axial compression...

...Phuong Phan-Vu; Duong T Tran; Long Nguyen-Minh Understanding of the efficacy of fibre-reinforced polymer ( FRP ) composites in repairing precracked concrete beams prestressed with unbonded tendons ( UPC beams) is still very limited. The aim of this study was to provide insights into this knowledge...

...Shuang Chen; Jiwen Guan; Shujia Liang Bearing capacity tests were carried out on axially and eccentrically loaded coral concrete short columns reinforced with carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) bars. Parameters such as the ultimate bearing capacities and the stress in the CFRP bars and surface...

...Xue Li, ME; Lian-Guang Wang, PhD; Yao-Sheng Zhang, ME; Ni Zhang, PhD An experimental and numerical study of hollow reinforced concrete-filled glass-fibre-reinforced polymer tubular beams was carried out. Based on bending tests, the working mechanism and failure modes were studied. A finite-element...
