Evaluation of corrosion-resistant basalt-fiber-reinforced polymer bars and carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer grid reinforcement to replace steel in precast concrete underground utility vaults.
(Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute, 2016-09)
Underground utility vaults are widely used to house
utilities and are conventionally designed using steel
reinforcement. These structures are often designed
with thicker cover concrete in an attempt to prevent the
corrosion ...
Nonlinear finite element of FRP reinforced concrete structures.
(BCRI, 2012-09)
reinforcement is a non-corrosive alternative to steel and is gaining popularity for use in reinforced concrete
structures exposed to corrosive environments. A major difference between the two reinforcing materials is their ...
Corrosion resistant reinforcement for sustainable bridges and underground structures.
(ICSECM, 2013-12)
Bridge decks and underground service structures are often exposed to extreme environmental conditions where structural damage due to corrosion is a common phenomenon. This results in reduced service life and expensive ...
