Abstract:This study represents the behavior of flexural test of methyl methacrylate modified unsaturated polyester polymer concrete beam reinforced with glassfiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) sheets. The failure mode, load-deflection, ductility index, and separation load predictions according to the GFRP reinforcement thickness were tested and analyzed. The failure mode was found to occur at the bonded surface of the specimen with 10 layers of GFRP reinforcement. For the load-deflection curve, as the reinforcement thickn… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
