Discussion of “A cantilever approach to estimate bending stiffness of buildings affected by tunnelling” by Twana Kamal Haji, Alec M. Marshall, and Walid Tizani
(Elsevier, 2018-07-01)This discussion considers the procedure proposed by Haji, Marshall and Tizani for the assessment of the structural stiffness of frame structures subjected to tunnelling. The discussion focuses on the potential contribution ... -
Experimental Study of the Influence of Bond on the Flexural Behaviour of Concrete Beams Pre-tensioned with AFRPs
(The American Concrete Institute, 1999-06)An experimental program was formulated to investigate the flexural behaviour of concrete prestressed with aramid fibre reinforced plastic tendons (AFRPs). The particular focus was the influence of the bond between an AFRP ... -
Expansive cement couplers - a means of pre-tensioning fibre reinforced plastic tendons
(Elsevier, 1995)Fibre reinforced plastics describes a group of materials composed of inorganic or organic fibres embedded in a resin matrix. frps are strong, non-magnetic, light-weight and for the most part, non-corrodable. There is great ...
