Experimental study on flexural behaviours of fresh or aged hollow reinforced concrete girders strengthened by prestressed CFRP plates (2023)
Journal Article
Deng, Y., Guo, Z., Zhang, H., Limkatanyu, S., Sukontasukkul, P., Yuen, T. Y. P., …Zou, Y. (2023). Experimental study on flexural behaviours of fresh or aged hollow reinforced concrete girders strengthened by prestressed CFRP plates. Engineering Structures, 294, Article 116776. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.engstruct.2023.116776

The paper presents a well-rounded experimental study on the flexural performance of Reinforced Concrete (RC) box girders strengthened with prestressed carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates. The motivation behind the study was twofold: the ris...

Experimental investigation of mechanically laminated straight or curved-and-tapered bamboo-concrete T-beams (2023)
Journal Article
Deng, Y., Hao, Y., Mohamed, A., Wong, S. H., Tang, Y., Yuen, T. Y., …Zhang, H. (2023). Experimental investigation of mechanically laminated straight or curved-and-tapered bamboo-concrete T-beams. Engineering Structures, 283, Article 115896. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.engstruct.2023.115896

This study echoes the rising demand for bio-based material in concrete composite structures in the race to accelerate carbon neutrality in construction. Noticing that most previous studies are focused on straight timber or engineered bamboo-to-concre...
