This study presents a simple yet powerful design-oriented model that makes use of
commonly available input data to predict the axial stress–strain behavior of fiber reinforced …

It is well understood that confining concrete with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites
can significantly enhance its strength and deformability. However, the confinement demand …

Extensive research has been conducted on the behavior of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP)-
confined concrete in both circular and rectangular concrete columns. In the former columns …

A large number of experimental studies have been conducted over the last two decades to
understand the behavior of FRP-confined concrete columns. This paper presents a …

This paper presents the results of a recent study conducted to refine the design-oriented
stress–strain model originally proposed by Lam and Teng for fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) …

The behavior of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP)-confined concrete in circular columns has
been extensively studied, but much less is known about concrete in FRP-confined …

Current axial stress–strain models of FRP-confined concrete mainly focus on FRP-confined
normal concrete, the research work on studying the stress–strain behavior of FRP-confined …

An important application of FRP composites is as a confining material for concrete, in both
the seismic retrofit of existing reinforced concrete columns and in the construction of …

Large rupture strain fiber-reinforced polymers (LRS FRPs)(eg, with an elongation larger than
5%) provide ideal confinement for seismic retrofit of concrete columns. Most of existing …

High-strength concrete (HSC) has higher strength-to-weight ratio and stiffness than normal-
strength concrete (NSC). Therefore, the use of HSC can decrease the construction and …
