1. Strengthening of concrete structures by the use of mineral based composites
Sammanfattning : Strengthening of concrete structures with epoxy bonded carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) has been proved to be an excellent strengthening technique. However, using epoxy adhesives for bonding do contain some disadvantages such as diffusion closeness, thermal incompatibility to the base concrete, regulations regarding the working environment and minimum application temperature.

2. Strengthening of concrete structures by the use of mineral based composites : system and design models for flexure and shear
Sammanfattning : A great number of society's resources are invested in existing concrete structures, such as bridges, tunnels, different kind of buildings etc. All of these structures have both an expected function and an expected life span. However, both the function and the life span can be influenced by external factors, e.g. LÄS MER
3. An Algorithmic Framework for Intelligent Concrete Structural Defects Detection and Classification
Sammanfattning : The primary objective of inspecting concrete civil structures is to gather information concerning the deterioration of concrete elements, including issues like concrete cover cracking, delamination, or corrosion. Typically, this data is documented through field inspection notes, hand-drawn sketches, and photographs. LÄS MER
4. CFRP Strengthening of Cut-Out Openings in Concrete Walls – Analysis and Laboratory Tests
Sammanfattning : Redesigning buildings to improve their space efficiency and allow changes in use is often essential during their service lives to comply with shifts in living standards and functional demands.This may require the introduction of new openings in elements such as beams, walls, and slabs,which inevitably reduces their structural performance and hence requires repair or strengthening.

5. FRCM-Composites for Strengthening Concrete Walls with Openings : Experimental and Numerical Analysis
Sammanfattning : Upgrading existing buildings to new functional requirements may require new openings that can weaken the structure, prompting the need for strengthening. In such cases, traditional strengthening solutions, such as creating a reinforced concrete or steel frame around the opening, imply long-term restrictions in the use of the structure. LÄS MER
