Bond of Corroded Reinforcement in Partial Depth Repairs in Reinforced Concrete Elements
(University of Waterloo, 2017-08-29)The bond in a reinforcement concrete (RC) structure is represented by the force transfer between the reinforcing bar and the surrounding concrete. All the RC structures are designed to have a perfect bond between the ... -
The Fatigue Behaviour of Tension Lap Spliced Reinforced Concrete Beams Strengthened with Fibre Reinforced Polymer Wrapping
(University of Waterloo, 2016-10-25)Many reinforced concrete structures containing lap splices were constructed before modern bond and fatigue design codes came into existence and are subjected to fatigue loading, which may lead to a bond failure even when ... -
Long-term behaviour of GFRP prestressed concrete beams
(University of Waterloo, 2015-11-12)During the last two decades, fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have emerged as prom-ising materials that can be used in lieu of steel for reinforcing concrete structures due to their corrosion-resistant properties, ... -
Tensile-Flexural Behaviour of Carbon-Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Prestressing Tendons Subjected to Harped Profiles
(University of Waterloo, 2016-09-15)External post-tensioning can provide an effective structural reinforcement system for the design of new concrete structures and for the strengthening of existing structures. In most cases, the structural effectiveness of ...
