Behavior of FRP-Confined Concrete-Filled Steel Tube Columns
This paper presents the results of an experimental study into the behavior of concrete-filled steel tube columns confined by fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP). Eleven columns were tested to investigate the effects of the FRP layer number, the thickness of the steel tube and concrete strength on their load capacity and axial deformation capacity. The experimental results indicated that the FRP wrap...
متن کاملRetrofitting of Existing Rc Square Bridge Columns Using Basalt Frp Rebars
Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) have been widely utilized to improve the seismic performance of deficient reinforced concrete (RC) columns. In recent years, one of the emerging types of FRPs used is basalt fibers. In this study, the performance of existing columns was experimentally examined before and after applying near-surface mounted (NSM) basalt FRP (BFRP) rebars as a retrofitting techniq...
متن کاملConcrete with Crumb Rubber from Used Tyres
This study aims to determine the influence of the substitution of a variable volume of aggregates on a concrete by an equivalent quantity of crumb rubber (CR) obtained from used tyres. The physical and mechanical properties of different concretes, which were developed through laboratory tests, have been studied for this goal. The experimental method employed is based on the production of a refe...
متن کاملExperimental Study of Crumb Rubber in Concrete
Crumb rubber is a material produced by shredding and commutating used tires. Waste tire dumping, disposal of these materials or burning these tires cause serious health and environmental problems. On the other side the traffic intensity also increasing day by day and thus bearing capacities also increased the long term goal of the work is to find a means to dispose of the crumb rubber in concre...
متن کاملEvaluation of ultimate conditions of FRP-confined concrete columns using genetic programming
A large database consisting of 832 axial compression tests results of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP)confined concrete specimens was assembled. Using the test database, existing conventional and evolutionary algorithm models developed for FRP-confined concrete were then assessed. New genetic programming (GP) models for predicting the ultimate condition of FRP-confined concrete were developed. Th...
