RESEARCH PROBLEMS THAT OCCUR DURING THE ANALYSIS OF THE WORK OF FRP-STRENGTHENED TIMBER BEAMS UNDER SUSTAINED LOADS
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue 4
Abstract
A special focus was given to the variation in deformability characteristics of these materials and to the resulting processes that occur in the work of the strengthened beams. Aims and objectives of these studies were also presented together with the issues resulting from the requirement to maintain appropriate test conditions. The paper is a theoretical analysis of the problem, conducted prior to the start of preliminary studies.
