The use of fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) jackets as an external mean to strengthen
existing RC columns has emerged in recent years with very promising results [1-13], among …

The behaviour of fibre reinforced polymer (FRP)-wrapped concrete in circular columns has
been extensively studied; however, much less is known about concrete in FRP-confined …

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the behavior of axially loaded
short rectangular columns that have been strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer …

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the behaviour of axially loaded
short concrete columns, with different cross sections that have been externally strengthened …

Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) are widely used as composite materials in civil
engineering applications to rehabilitate or strengthen reinforced-concrete structural …

This paper presents results of an experimental investigation on half-scale concrete columns
retrofitted with externally bonded fiber reinforced polymers (FRP). It then reviews six …

Most of the available studies on the behavior of FRP confined concrete columns have
concentrated on circular shaped columns, while relatively few studies have addressed …

One important application of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites is as a confining
material for concrete in the retrofit of existing concrete columns by the provision of FRP …

Axial compression tests were carried out on 72 FRP (fiber reinforced polymer)–stirrup
composite-confined concrete columns. Stirrups ensure the residual bearing capacity and …

The present article deals with the analysis of experimental results, in terms of load-carrying
capacity and strain, obtained from tests on plain-and reinforced-concrete (RC) cylinders …
