Corrosion of steel reinforcement from chloride exposure can compromise the strength of
reinforced concrete structures. Rust formation expands, applying pressure on concrete …

Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) has been developed to be applied for a strengthening of the
deteriorated structures. In the form of a sheet, the FRP may be applied for the strengthening …

To overcome the dependence on the use of reinforcing steel in concrete, alternative
materials are used as reinforcement that is easy and cheap to obtain the resistant of …

The most dangerous shear failure behavior is brittle collapse that occurs without warning of
deflection. So that the structural reinforcement of shear strength will be one solution to make …

Rehabilitation and strengthening of old structures using advanced materials is a
contemporary research in the field of Structural Engineering. During past two decades, much …

Structures built in aggressive environments such as in the sea/marine environment need to
be carefully designed, due to possibility of chloride ion penetration into the concrete. One …

Concrete is a composite material which is powerless in pressure and is regularly influenced
by breaking and scaling which are associated with plastic and solidified states and drying …

Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) structures are deemed no longer having the ability to
sustain current capacity demands. Several factors can lead to the judgment of concrete …

" Fiber Reinforced Polymers FRP" provide good alternatives to regular reinforcing steel, as
their resistance to environmental factors specifies them and provide durability, in addition to …

The use of sawdust and waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) flakes is investigated in this
research as a partial replacement of fine aggregates in production of composite green …
