The paper presents an experimental investigation of the flexural behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) beam elements strengthened externally with stainless steel wire mesh (SSWM). SSWM has the potential to be an alternative composite…
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) is the most promising technique in the present era to bring sustainability, reliability, and pseudo ductility to concrete structures due to its superior properties. Thermoplastic and thermoset polymers are…
Partial confinement can provide sufficient reinforcement to enhance the compressive strength and ductility of concrete with lesser confining material. This paper presents the results of an axial compression test conducted on eighteen plain…
Concrete corbels are short cantilever constructions that may lose their strength over time because of loads that happen over and over again. As an external bonding method for reinforcement, carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips are…
Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns are broadly used in many structural systems for their well-known merits. This paper presents a finite element investigation on the structural behaviour of short circular deficient steel tubes…
