Corrosion, which leads to the premature deterioration of reinforced concrete (RC) structures, is increasingly an issue of global concern. Accordingly, corrosion-resistant materials have emerged as alternative reinforcement ...

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have become popularly utilized in structural engineering applications. The common use of the FRP composites is related to their economic benefits that can be observed right away ...

numerous causes. Thus, proper strengthening and rehabilitation techniques are required to restore the strength and extend the service life of the structures. Steel reinforced grout (SRG) has recently been introduced as an ...

This paper presents an analytical study to verify the ACI 549-4R-16 code for experimentally tested Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams, which were strengthened to enhance the flexural capacity using Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious ...

In this paper, the efficacy of a recent strengthening technique, referred to as Near Surface Embedded (NSE), has been investigated for flexural strengthening of Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams using Fabric Reinforced ...

Using seawater and/or recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) for concrete mixing is deemed advantageous from a sustainability perspective. This paper reports on the results of an experimental study on fresh and hardened properties ...
