EXPERIMENTAL AND ANALYTICAL STUDY OF BIO-BASED EPOXY COMPOSITE MATERIALS FOR STRENGTHENING REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES

Experimental and analytical study of bio-based epoxy composite materials for strengthening reinforced concrete structures

This paper presents a new approach to strengthen reinforced concrete structures using natural fiber composites.Natural fibers are often used in civil engineering for thermal or acoustic insulation, but rarely are they employed to strengthen structures.Natural fiber composites are constituted of a matrix based on epoxy adhesive and aligned continuou

Dynamic analysis of elevated viaducts of Doha metro green line

The 2.7 kilometers double Lanterns track elevated viaducts of Doha metro green line, currently under construction, consist of cast-in-situ and precast segmental simply supported spans ranging from 20 to 35 m and continuous cast-insitu two and three spans (30-57 m), (50-51-44 m) and (37-68-37 m) U-trough decks.The non-typical configuration of the co
