Performance of Reinforced Concrete Beams Strengthened with CFRP Composite in Corrosive Environment

TL;DR: In this article, the long-term performance of reinforced concrete beams externally strengthened with CFRP composite was evaluated in a corrosive environment and the debonding at the CFRP-concrete interface was detected after flexural cracks were developed in the concrete members.

Durability Gap Analysis for Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites in Civil Infrastructure

TL;DR: The lack of a comprehensive, validated, and easily accessible data base for the durability of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites as related to civil infrastructure applications has been identified as a critical barrier to widespread acceptance of these materials by structural designers and civil engineers as discussed by the authors.
