Flexural behavior of hybrid FRP/steel reinforced concrete beams

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical method for estimating the curvature, deflection and moment capacity of hybrid FRP/steel reinforced concrete beams is presented, where a sectional analysis is first carried out to predict the moment-curvature relationship from which beam deflection, moment capacity and curvature are then calculated.

Flexural performance of FRP reinforced concrete beams

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical method for estimating the curvature, deflection and moment capacity of FRP reinforced concrete beams is developed, where a beam section divided into a number of segments is numerically solved due to the non-linear behaviour of concrete.

Experimental study on crack width and crack spacing for Glass-FRP reinforced concrete beams

TL;DR: In this article, a study on the cracking behavior of GFRP reinforced concrete (RC) elements is presented based on the results of an experimental program involving 15 beams, where two different types of gFRP and steel bars were used.

Structural behaviour of RC beams externally strengthened with FRP sheets under fatigue and monotonic loading

TL;DR: In this article, the fatigue and post-fatigue static behavior of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with glass or carbon fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets placed either vertically or obliquely was investigated.

Side Near Surface Mounted (SNSM) technique for flexural enhancement of RC beams

TL;DR: In this article, a side-near-surface-mounted (SNSM) technique was proposed to enhance the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams by incorporating carbon fiber reinforced polymers and steel bars.
