High-strength concrete (HSC) has been broadly applied to various civil structures for its
advantages including high compressive strength and excellent durability and creep …

Analyses were carried out on glass-fibre-reinforced polymer tube columns with reference to
laboratory tests. The angles of the glass fibre beams were 20°, 55° and 85°. The study …

Concrete is known as the most used material for the construction industry. It is crucial to
