The strengthening of existing steel structures against high-cycle fatigue (HCF) loading has become one of the most important topics of interest in structural rehabilitation. Apart from the conventional strengthening techniques that incorporate bulky and he ...
Today, it is widely accepted that fatigue is one of the most common failure mechanisms in structural components, and pure static failure is rarely observed. Engineering structures are subjected to complex mechanical fatigue loading histories, which cause d ...
In recent years, retrofitting of steel structures has emerged as a major issue in structural engineering and construction management. As the adhesive bond is often the critical aspect controlling the actual performance of steel profiles externally strength ...
Punching reinforcement systems have significantly developed in recent years as they allow enhancing the punching resistance of slab-column connections as well as their deformation capacity. These systems, with varying geometry and layout, normally consist ...
In this study, the short-term bonding behaviors of prestressed CFRP plates to steel substrates and their debonding capacities have been investigated. For this purpose, single lap-shear and prestress release tests were performed on adhesively bonded CFRP-to ...
FRP (fiber reinforced polymer) strips are used to flexurally strengthen reinforced concrete (RC) beams. The global bond strength namely the maximum transferable bond stress due to the increase of FRP tensile stress in a cracked concrete element (subsequent ...
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials are currently being selected for the design of lightweight and efficient structural members in a wide number of engineering applications. Sandwich panels with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) face she ...
“Structural UHPFRC” stands for Ultra-High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composite material that is complemented by reinforcing and prestressing steel to enhance the resistance and durability of structural elements. Properties of impermeable, te ...
Bond behavior and anchorage resistance of prestressed CFRP plates to steel substrate have been investigated in the current study. To do so, a set of single lap-shear and prestress release tests was performed on CFRP-to-steel bonded joints, and the feasibil ...

Nowadays, reinforced concrete (RC) is one of the most widely spread construction materials: allowing to build robust and durable structures. Traditionally, due to cover requirements of the reinforcement and to casting and vibration needs, it has yet been a ...
