Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) are becoming a common method for repair and
rehabilitation of civil engineering structures. FRP wraps are common because they are …

Due to aging of existing structures and/or change of expected load patterns and their
magnitudes, their strengthening becomes a necessity. The application of externally bonded …

Knowledge on durability of concrete/epoxy bonded systems is becoming essential as the
use of these systems in applications such as fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) in strengthening …

Externally bonded fiber reinforced polymer composites (FRP) are widely used for the repair
and strengthening of concrete structures. Since loads are transferred to FRP through its …

Abstract Effects of water immersion on the behavior of bond between CFRP plates and
concrete substrate were experimentally investigated and analytically modeled. The finite …

This paper deals with durability of glass fiber-reinforced polymer composites under
sustained loads and simultaneously exposed to either saltwater or tap water. The tensile …

This paper presents the results of an extensive experimental campaign of bond tests aimed
to assess and compare the influence of several environmental conditioning factors (humidity …

In subtropical coastal regions, fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthened concrete bridge
structures are typically subject to harsh environmental attack such as temperature and …

Fiber reinforced polymers are being extensively used for external strengthening of masonry
structures. However, durability of this strengthening technique under environmental …

Externally bonded strengthening of masonry structures using Fiber Reinforced Polymers
(FRPs) has been accepted as a promising technique. Although the effectiveness of FRPs in …
