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 …

In recent decades, several studies have considered the use of plastic waste as a partial
substitute for aggregate in green concrete. Such concrete has been limited to non-structural …

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 …

There are several methods for predicting experimental results such as empirical methods,
elasticity and plasticity theory. Among these methods, the use of soft computing has been …

Abstract Nowadays, Fiber Reinforced Polymers are extensively applied in the field of civil
engineering due to their advantageous proprieties such as high strength-to-weight ratio and …

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the effect of concrete compressive
strength and confinement method on confined high and ultra high-strength concrete (HSC …

For any structures, Reinforced concrete (RC) columns are the utmost carping members. RC
columns jacketed with CFRP membrane enhance resistance, deformation aptitude, and the …

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

Recently, hemp-fiber-reinforced polymer (HFRP) composites have been developed to
enhance the strength and ductility of normal and lightweight aggregate concrete along with …

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