Composites For Construction: Structural Design With Frp Materials
Published 3 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
A code-based guide for designing civil structures using Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) materials. The content details both the raw material constituents and manufacturing methods like pultrusion used to create composite parts for building applications. The book dedicates significant sections to the design basis and requirements for using FRP reinforcing bars in new concrete structures, including checks for flexural strength and serviceability. Furthermore, the volume provides detailed engineering procedures for applying FRP strengthening systems to retrofit existing beams and columns against shear or flexural failure, accounting for unique issues like environmental reduction factors. Finally, the text addresses the ultimate and serviceability limit states for using pultruded FRP profiles as standalone structural members, incorporating analysis for buckling phenomena and the design of bolted connections between these profiles.
