The flexural strength of conductive carbon fiber-reinforced cement mortar (CFRCM) and steel fiber-reinforced cement mortar (SFRCM) was significantly improved compared to that of PM. The compressive strength of CFRCM decreased significantly as the volume fraction of carbon fibers increas...
1.Light weight, floating in the water, about 87.5% lighter than the same diameter of wire rope. 2.High strength, higher than the same diameter of steel wire, 1.5 times stronger than aramid fiber. 3.Excellent durability, seawater resistance, chemical resistance, uv radiation and...
the efficiency of the FRCM confinement by varying some of the relevant parameters, such as: type of fiber (glass, carbon, steel, PBO or basalt) and geometry of the mesh, number of employed layers, mechanical properties of the inorganic matrix and compressive strength of the unconfined concrete...
thereby, help reduce the carbon footprint of dwellings. The research employs a first-of-a-kind combination of nanomaterials, hemp shiv and hemp/glass fibres and polyvinyl acetate (PVAc emulsion) to enhance
Fiber-Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) are commonly used for strengthening concrete structures (see [1,2]). These materials are also applied to strengthen masonry and steel structures due to the various benefits of FRP (e.g., outstanding corrosion resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio, and ability...
Table 1. Basic physical properties of coarse-grained soils for the test. The PVA used in the test has a high degree of polymerization with a 99% degree of alcoholysis. The physical properties are shown in Table 2. Polyvinyl alcohol 20–99 is a white, flaky, featherlike fiber before diss...
Young's Modulus (or Tensile Modulus alt. Modulus of Elasticity) and Ultimate Tensile Strength and Yield Strength for materials like steel, glass, wood and many more.
ULTIMATE FLEXURAL STRENGTH OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAMS WITH LARGE VOLUMES OF SHORT RANDOMLY ORIENTED STEEL FIBRES The paper describes the results of an investigation conducted at the Asian Institute of Technology to determine the influence of high fiber volumes on the ...

The amount of cement used has increased phenomenally due to the development and massive expansion of the infrastructure sector. The manufacture of cement r
Based on the soil data sets from TC304 database, a general approach is developed to predict the USS of soft clays using the two machine learning methods above, where five feature variables including the preconsolidation stress (PS), vertical effective stress (VES), liquid limit (LL), plastic...
