HYBRID MEMBERS EMPLOYING FRP SKIN REINFORCEMENT FOR BEAMS AND CLADDING WALL APPLICATIONS

This thesis explores two hybrid systems employing a core material reinforced by an external skin, namely, cladding walls composed of polyurethane foam core sandwiched between fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) skins, and beams composed of concrete-filled FRP or steel tubes. The walls were studied in two...
