  1. TRC improved flexural capacity of an aged cracked bridge slab-beam
    Study on carbon textile-reinforced concrete strengthening of aged bridge slabs shows 24.8% capacity increase and effective crack control under sustained service loads.
  2. Rubber-stiffened steel plates showed delamination as the main failure mode
    Study on rubber-stiffened steel plates and rapid-hardening concrete for sustainable bridge expansion joints, examining static performance, failure mechanisms, and design parameters for jointless.
  3. GFRP shows lower CO2 emissions than steel in most structural applications
    Comparative life-cycle assessment of CO2 emissions in GFRP versus steel structural components, demonstrating GFRP sustainability advantages through unit performance metrics and sensitivity analysis.
