Sensitivity analysis and genetic algorithm-based shear capacity model for basalt FRC one-way slabs reinforced with BFRP bars
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are increasingly used in concrete structures owing to their superior corrosion resistance. However, FRP-reinforced concrete (RC) structures exhibit less ductile response compared ...
Shear capacity prediction of FRP-RC beams using single and ensenble ExPlainable Machine learning models
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Corrosion in steel reinforcement is a central issue behind the severe deterioration of existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Nowadays, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) is increasingly being used as a viable alternative ...
FAI: Fast, accurate, and intelligent approach and prediction tool for flexural capacity of FRP-RC beams based on super-learner machine learning model
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have recently been considered in the field of structural engineering as one of the best alternatives to conventional steel reinforcement due to their high tensile strength, ...
Behavior of artificially corroded RC beams strengthened with CFRP and hybrid CFRP-GFRP laminates
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Steel corrosion is a major degradation factor for the reinforced concrete (RC) infrastructure and necessitates a costly repair after short service life. Predicting the strength of corroded and retrofitted structural elements ...
Bond performance of tensile lap-spliced basalt-FRP reinforcement in high-strength concrete beams
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
This paper investigates the bond between high-strength concrete (HSC) and tensile lap-spliced basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars. Ten large-scale BFRP-reinforced concrete beams (300 x 450 x 3900 mm) were fabricated ...
Electrochemical behavior of mild and corrosion resistant concrete reinforcing steels
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
An experimental study is carried out in this paper to evaluate the corrosion performance of mild steel reinforcing bars (MS), high strength steel reinforcing bars (HS), epoxy-coated steel reinforcing bars (EC), and ...
Durability characteristics of high and ultra-high performance concretes
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Durability characteristics of high-performance concrete (HPC) and ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) are evaluated in comparison to normal strength concrete (NSC). HPC and UHPC are cast using commonly available materials ...
Bond Performance of Near-Surface Mounted BFRP Bars to Concrete
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference)
This paper presents the test results of a study on the bond performance of near-surface mounted (NSM) basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars to concrete. Twelve C-shape concrete specimens were tested under direct ...
The Effect of Surface Treatment of Basalt FRP Bars on the Shear Capacity of Oneway High-Strength Concrete Slabs
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference)
Corrosion is a common condition encountered by steel reinforcing bars which has a considerable negative impact on the structural integrity of concrete structures. Nowadays, applying anti-corrosive composite materials such ...
Performance of Mild Steel and Corrosion-Resistant Steel Rebars in Chloride-Contaminated Concrete
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference)
Reinforced concrete (RC) infrastructure in Arabian Peninsula is subjected to harsh climatic conditions of high temperatures, humidity, and airborne chlorides and there is a high concentration of salts in seawater and soils. ...
