Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of tensile and flexural modulus in hemp strands/polypropylene composites
Francesc X. Espinach,Fernando Julián,Narcís Verdaguer,L. Torres,M. A. Pèlach,Fabiola Vilaseca,Pere Mutjé +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on the behavior of the tensile and flexural modulus of polypropylene/hemps strands composites, and the mean value of the orientation efficiency factor was found to be 0.55.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental study of bond-slip of GFRP bars in concrete under sustained loads
TL;DR: In this article, the bond performance of GFRP reinforced concrete (RC) elements under sustained load is investigated through pull-out tests, where two concrete strengths (35 MPa and 50 MPa), two bond lengths (5 and 10 times the diameter of the reinforcing bar) and two reinforcing materials (glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) and steel) were used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bond behaviour between recycled aggregate concrete and glass fibre reinforced polymer bars
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the use of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) in the concrete production process was evaluated for fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) bars and concrete.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental study of immediate and time-dependent deflections of GFRP reinforced concrete beams
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the results and discussion of an experimental program concerning eight glass reinforced concrete (RC) beams tested at service load, and subsequently subjected to sustained loading for 250 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of sustained loading and environmental conditions on the creep behavior of an epoxy adhesive for concrete structures strengthened with CFRP laminates
TL;DR: In this article, the creep behavior of a structural epoxy adhesive used for strengthening Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) laminates is studied through an experimental program.
