This paper presents the effectiveness of various retrofit techniques in improving the flexural
behavior of structural timber. For realistic representation with regard to site application …

Laminated wood beams have become a preferred solution compared to standard solid
beams due to their ability to carry larger loads and in larger spans (greater distances). The …

Most of the previous studies mainly concentrated on the axial behavior of glass fiber-
reinforced polymer (glass-FRP)-reinforced concrete columns, and no study has been …

A mainshock is usually accompanied by a group of ground motions. In many design codes,
the effects of the seismic sequences have been neglected or underestimated. Aftershocks …

Although there are lots of researches about the application of FRP composites on the
external bonding and reinforcement of timber structures, they are mostly aimed at Carbon …

Glulam wood is growing frequently employed in modern wood structure engineering due to
its great physical and mechanical qualities. In practical engineering, due to the anisotropic …

A few empirical models for the axial loading capacity (ALC) of circular normal strength
concrete (NSC) columns wrapped by carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets and …

Using carbon fiber-reinforced composite (CFRP) grid stirrups to replace traditional steel
stirrups in reinforced concrete (RC) beams can effectively improve the corrosion resistance …

This study examined the cyclic behavior of glass-fiber-reinforced polymer composite column-
beam connectors in various diameters. Mean learning (XGBoost and the random forest …

The wooden arch corridor bridge is a typical representative of Chinese wooden bridges,
holding significant historical research value. Currently, these bridges face issues of severe …
