Abstract:
The hybridisation of fibre-reinforced polymers (FRPs), particularly with the combination of natural and synthetic fibres, is a prominent option for their development. In the context of the construction industry, there is a notable gap in research on the use of jute and glass fibres for the strengthening of concrete structures. This paper presents comprehensive experimental results from tests on seven reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened for shear using synthetic, natural, and hybrid jute–glass FRP composites. The beams were reinforced using the externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) tech

Corrosion of steel reinforcement is a major cause of deterioration in reinforced concrete structures especially those exposed to harsh environmental conditions such as bridges, concrete pavements, and parking garages.

These conditions normally accelerate the need of costly repairs and may lead, ultimately, to catastrophic failure.

FRP rupture is the typical failure mode of FRP wrapped columns under axial compression. numerous experiments have shown that the FRP rupture strain in an FRP wrapped circular column is significantly lower than the FRP ultimate rupture strain determined from flat coupon test of FRP.

Recently, fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars have been extensively used in construction instead of steel rebars due to their non-corrosive nature and high tensile strength. Bond between FRP rebars and concrete is a critical design parameter that controls the performance of reinforced concrete members at serviceability and ultimate limit states. In order to prevent a bond failure, an adequate anchorage length should be provided. The anchorage length is derived using a bond stress-slip ( ) constitutive law.

Abstract:
AbstractSteel reinforced concrete is a widely used material for constructing large spanning planar building elements due to its strength, durability, and low cost, but its environmental impact, long fabrication time, and relatively low structural performance demonstrate the need for innovation. To address these issues, this study proposes a novel design methodology and fabrication method that integrates robotic Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) woven reinforcement that is optimized using a Multi-Weight Bi-directional Evolutionary Structural Optimization (MW-BESO) algorithm. The optimized FRP reinforcement is then cast in epoxy resin to produce the large scale planar building element. The methodology is evaluated through a Tabletop prototype and other small-scale rapid prototypes, which demonstrate the successes, challenges, and limitations of this approach. The study outlines the material and methodological testing conducted to assess the effectiveness of using the MW-BESO algorithm with robotic FRP weaving and describes the workflow of transforming the resulting 3D MW-BESO geometry into a 2D robotic winding path for fabrication. The research shows that this methodology has the potential to reduce the environmental impact, stimulate innovative design solutions, and streamline the fabrication of large scale building elements, providing a promising avenue for the development of sustainable and efficient construction techniques.

Construction produces a third of global carbon emissions. These emissions cause global warming and contribute to climate emergency. There is a need to encourage use of sustainable and eco-friendly materials to effectively deal with climate emergency. Fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) is an eco-friendly material with low-carbon footprint. FRP composites in civil engineering are mainly used in three applications: (1) FRP profiles in new-build; (2) FRP-reinforcing bar in concrete members and (3) FRP in repair and rehabilitation of existing structures. This chapter presents basic properties of constituent materials (fibres and polymer resins), mechanical properties of FRP bars, strengthening systems and profiles, manufacturing processes and civil engineering applications of FRP composites.

Abstract:
Abstract The dual laminate, poly (ethylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene) / fiber-reinforced plastic (ECTFE/FRP), has proven successful in providing leak-free performance in many sodium chlorate manufacturing plants. ETCFE/FRP chlorate electrolytic cells, gas collectors, pipes, and chlorine scrubbers have operated for over eighteen years, outlasting titanium in similar applications. ECTFE-lined steel pipes have replaced CPVC, FEP, PVDF and other corrosion-resistant polymers due to ECTFE low permeability in hydrogen gas lines at temperatures as high as 95°C.

Abstract:
The problem of corrosion in reinforced concrete infrastructure can be addressed by using fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars, since they are a feasible alternative due to their non-corrosive nature. Basalt fibre-reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars have recently gained attention as a possible substitute for both of these materials because they are less expensive than Carbon Fibre-Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) and have greater tensile strength than Glass Fibre-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP). While considerable research has been conducted on CFRP bars and GFRP bars, studies on BFRP are limited, hindering its i

Abstract:
<p>Fiber Reinforced Polymers are an innovation of common local retrofit schemes, but Carbon FRP – the leading FRP – poses significant environmental concerns. Thus, Basalt FRP (BFRP) is proposed as a sustainable alternative due to its desirable mechanical properties and environmental friendliness. Using ANSYS Finite Element Models based on Sim et al. (2005), RC beams with varying BFRP length and number of layers were analyzed for flexural strengthening. Parametric study results show a general increase in flexural strengthening effect corresponding to BFRP width, length, thickness, and num

Abstract:
Recent advances in the use of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) to retrofit steel structures subjected to fatigue cracks have shown to be a viable solution for increasing fatigue life in steel hydraulic structures (SHS). Although several studies have been conducted to evaluate the use of FRP for retrofitting metal alloys and the promising potential of such has been well-demonstrated, the application has never been implemented in underwater steel structures.

Engineers and ecologists continue to explore new methods and adapt existing techniques to improve highway mitigation measures that increase motorist safety and conserve wildlife species. Crossing structures, overpasses and underpasses, combined with fences, are some of the most highly effective mitigation measures employed around the world to reduce wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVCs) with large animals, increase motorist safety, and maintain habitat connectivity across transportation networks for many other types and sizes of wildlife.

Abstract:
Although steel hydraulic structures have a protective system to prevent corrosion, this type of deterioration will eventually occur due to the constant exposure to harsh environmental conditions. There are several techniques that can be implemented to repair corroded steel structural elements. This report presents a numerical study to evaluate the mechanical behavior of corroded steel girders used in hydraulic steel structures and to evaluate several carbon fiber–reinforced polymers (CFRP) layups to repair them. The girders were modeled as simply supported with four-point loading boundary cond

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dynamic response of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite sandwich panels subjected to typical barge impact masses and velocities to develop force time histories that can be used in controlled experimental testing. Dynamic analyses were performed on FRP composite sandwich panels using the finite element method software Abaqus/Explicit. The “traction-separation” law in the Abaqus software is used to define the cohesive surface interaction properties to evaluate the damage between FRP composite laminate layers as well as the core separation within
