Efficiency of coating layers used for thermal protection of FRP strengthened beams

This paper investigates the efficiency of coating layers used for thermal protection of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) strengthened Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams. An experimental program was carried out on 36 RC beams protected by using different coating layers of Perlite, Vermiculite, Portland Cem...
