Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bonding between the Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) rods and concrete is one important factor that determines the performance of FRP reinforced concrete structure. The objective of this study is to measure the interfacial bond strength and to understand the factors that influence this. Two types of interfacial bond strength, Intrinsic Interfacial Bond Strength and Apparent Interfacial Bond Strength have been defined and measured using a single fiber pull-out test. Composite tendons with various surface profiles such as smooth, with lugs, sand coated and machined surface, were tested to study the effect of surface roughness, frictional resistance and bearing resistance on the measured intrinsic and apparent shear strength values. Loading rates were also varied to study their influence on the debond progression and on the measured apparent shear strength. Based on the experimental results following conclusions can be made: (a) Apparent bond strength between the FRP-concrete interface is attributed to bonding mechanisms such as chemical bonding, confinement pressure, frictional resistance and bearing resistance. (b) Contribution from intrinsic bonding mechanisms such as chemical bonding and confinements pressure alone is not sufficient to achieve high FRP-concrete bond strength. (c) Further improvement of the apparent bond strength can be achieved by additional mechanisms such frictional resistance and bearing resistance. (d) Apparent bond strength of sand particle coating (ISOROD(tm)) is influenced by the loading rate due to relatively higher contribution from frictional resistance.

Book Bonded Repair and Retrofit of Concrete Structures Using FRP Composites

Download or read book Bonded Repair and Retrofit of Concrete Structures Using FRP Composites written by Amir Mirmiran and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2004 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global response to COVID-19 has demonstrated the importance of vigilance and preparedness for infectious diseases, particularly influenza. There is a need for more effective influenza vaccines and modern manufacturing technologies that are adaptable and scalable to meet demand during a pandemic. The rapid development of COVID-19 vaccines has demonstrated what is possible with extensive data sharing, researchers who have the necessary resources and novel technologies to conduct and apply their research, rolling review by regulators, and public-private partnerships. As demonstrated throughout the response to COVID-19, the process of research and development of novel vaccines can be significantly optimized when stakeholders are provided with the resources and technologies needed to support their response. Vaccine Research and Development to Advance Pandemic and Seasonal Influenza Preparedness and Response focuses on how to leverage the knowledge gained from the COVID-19 pandemic to optimize vaccine research and development (R&D) to support the prevention and control of seasonal and pandemic influenza. The committee's findings address four dimensions of vaccine R&D: (1) basic and translational science, (2) clinical science, (3) manufacturing science, and (4) regulatory science.

Download or read book Strengthening of Reinforced Concrete Structures written by L C Hollaway and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1999-03-05 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The in situ rehabilitation or upgrading of reinforced concrete members using bonded steel plates is an effective, convenient and economic method of improving structural performance. However, disadvantages inherent in the use of steel have stimulated research into the possibility of using fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) materials in its place, providing a non-corrosive, more versatile strengthening system.This book presents a detailed study of the flexural strengthening of reinforced and prestressed concrete members using fibre reinforces polymer composite plates. It is based to a large extent on material developed or provided by the consortium which studied the technology of plate bonding to upgrade structural units using carbon fibre / polymer composite materials. The research and trial tests were undertaken as part of the ROBUST project, one of several ventures in the UK Government's DTI-LINK Structural Composites Programme.The book has been designed for practising structural and civil engineers seeking to understand the principles and design technology of plate bonding, and for final year undergraduate and postgraduate engineers studying the principles of highway and bridge engineering and structural engineering. - Detailed study of the flexural strengthening of reinforced and prestressed concrete members using fibre reinforced polymer composites - Contains in-depth case histories
