Pseudo-ductile Braided Composite Rods (BCRs) produced by braidtrusion
| Resumo: | Braided composite rods (BCRs) are being successfully used as replacement of steel for strengthening of beams, columns, bridges and other civil engineering structures. In this research work, braided composite rods were produced through “braidtrusion” process reinforced with glass, glass/steel and basalt/steel hybrid fibres. Tensile testing have been conducted to evaluate the Pseudo-ductile behaviour. The results show that compared to 100% glass fibre BCRs, BCRs which has glass/steel or basalt/steel hybrid modified the tensile behaviour from linear (fragile) to non-linear (ductile). |
