The ultimate load carrying capactiy of soil-filled masonry arches is significantly higher than that of bare masonry arches. The soil fill has a stabalising effect on the masonry arch, distributing the live load and providing passive resistance to def...

Experimental study on bond-sip behaviour between CFRP sheets and lightweight concrete (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Mustafa, A., Weekes, L., & Augusthus Nelson, L. (2015, September). Experimental study on bond-sip behaviour between CFRP sheets and lightweight concrete. Presented at ACIC 2015, Cambridge, UK

Epoxy bonded fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are widely used for the retrofit of ailing reinforced concrete structures, for both shear and flexure. The behaviour of retrofitted concrete structures is governed by the bond and material charac... Read More about Experimental study on bond-sip behaviour between CFRP sheets and lightweight concrete.
