Numerical Modelling of Timber Beams with GFRP Pultruded Reinforcement

Numerical Modelling of Timber Beams with GFRP Pultruded Reinforcement

Timber structural members have been widely adopted and used in construction due to their inherent characteristics. The main objective of this work is to assess the performance of timber beams with GFRP pultruded beam reinforcement subjected to flexure. A finite element model (FEM) using ABAQUS FEM s...
