GFRP bars can be used partially or fully instead of steel bars in RC-beams to eliminate corrosion problems, especially in harsh environments. Also, the implementation of the combined use of engineered ...

To enhance the strengthening effectiveness of existing reinforced concrete (RC) beams and fully utilize the material properties of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), this study systematically ...

When used in structural engineering, the term deflection refers to load-induced displacement, which typically affects beam designs. It can be an extremely complicated value to calculate when ...
