Experiment Investigation on Pull-Off Strength between Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP)-Concrete Interface under Marine Condition

For the past decades, extensive research and studies have been conducted on fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite which is widely practiced for strengthening structures. FRP materials has been chosen in retrofitting of existing structures because FRP has higher strength-to-weight ratio and pro...
