Polymer Binder, Impact On The Pull-Out Force Of Macro Fibers In Sprayed Concrete, Klaus Bonin, Christina Neumaier
Polymer Binder, Impact On The Pull-Out Force Of Macro Fibers In Sprayed Concrete, Klaus Bonin, Christina Neumaier
International Conference on Durability of Concrete Structures
Macro-fibers have been used in sprayed concrete for many years now, particularly to prevent cracks from developing in the concrete due to deformation energy. These fibers can be made of steel or plastics and are provided for the Application. The type of fiber to be used is selected based on the building project’s requirements. Usually, the fibers are added to the sprayed concrete in the standard application’s mixture, regardless of whether the concrete is wet or dry (fiber-reinforced concrete or FRC). FRC’s functional principle is to mechanically anchor the steel or polymer fibers in the dense matrix of the binder …
Strengthening The Reinforced Concrete Column With Cf Sheet, Florim Istrefi
Strengthening The Reinforced Concrete Column With Cf Sheet, Florim Istrefi
UBT International Conference
Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites (the combination of two or more materials). The strengthening of concrete members means using constructional measures to restore or improve their load-carrying capacity, serviceability, durability or fatigue strength.
The effects of strengthening measures can generally be described in quantitative terms and therefore analyzed numerically for reinforced concrete columns designed according to the earlier editions of DIN 1045, ACI Committee 440, 2002, there are some strengthening assignments that fall midway between redesign and sprayed concrete. It is for these projects that wrapping with fiber-reinforced materials is to be recommended. This method has already been used frequently …
General Concept For Strengthening The Reinforced Concrete Column A Wrapping Of Cf Sheet, Florim Istrefi
General Concept For Strengthening The Reinforced Concrete Column A Wrapping Of Cf Sheet, Florim Istrefi
UBT International Conference
Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites (the combination of two or more materials). Used more often in the defense and aerospace industries, advanced composites are beginning to play the role of conventional materials (commodities) used for load-bearing structural components for infrastructure applications. These unique materials are now being used worldwide for building new structures as well as for rehabilitating in-service structures.
“FRP” is an acronym for fiber reinforced polymers, which some also call fiber reinforced plastics, so called because of the fiber content in a polyester, vinyl ester, or other matrix. Three are commonly used (among others): composite containing glass fibers …

Compression Testing And Failure Modes Of Steel-Concrete Composite (Sc) Structures For Nuclear Containment, Patrick Michael Wanamaker, Amit H. Varma
Compression Testing And Failure Modes Of Steel-Concrete Composite (Sc) Structures For Nuclear Containment, Patrick Michael Wanamaker, Amit H. Varma
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
Although being able to provide much cleaner power than burning coal and other fossil fuels, nuclear power plants are still a tough sell to the general public due to their history of being spontaneously dangerous. The containment structures surrounding these nuclear plants, however, can play a huge role in reducing the risks associated with them. Relatively new designs for these containment assemblies, known as SC (steel-concrete composite) structures, aim to increase the strength and durability of the containment facilities while keeping costs down. By varying the spacing between shear studs, the ratio of concrete to steel, and the ratio of …

Validation Of Long-Fiber Thermoplastic Composite Models, Christian A. Vuong, Megan Kinney, Michael Sangid
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
With increased pressure to reduce energy consumption, long-fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites (LFTs) are of interest to aerospace and automotive industries due to their light weight in combination with other desirable mechanical properties and ease of manufacturing to replace common materials such as aluminum and magnesium. However, the performance of LFTs is highly dependent on microstructural variables such as fiber length and orientation, which are heavily influenced by the manufacturing process. Accurately predicting these factors would allow for more rapid advances in LFTs by reducing the experiments needed for certification and decreasing expenses. While models that serve this purpose exist, the …
