The sudden occurrence of an earthquake induces a liquefaction effect on foundation soil, which causes a substantial increase in the uplift pressure acting on piles and causes structural damage to superstructures. This forms the basis of the necessity of ...

Two unique approaches were proposed to strengthen the bond between the glass fiber reinforcement polymer (GFRP) and the RC concrete surfaces. The two bonding materials are epoxy (EP) and geopolymer (GPP) with different ratios of short glass fibers (SGF)....

The rehabilitation of steel structures with Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP?s) may appear less effective because they can be bolted or welded with steel plates that display the same mechanical properties. However, this technique has some unwanted conseque...
