Pilot Demonstration of a Strengthening Method for Steel-Bolted Connections Using Pre-Formable Carbon Fiber Cloth with VaRTM

Pilot Demonstration of a Strengthening Method for Steel-Bolted Connections Using Pre-Formable Carbon Fiber Cloth with VaRTM

In recent years, many seismic retrofitting methods have been performed to improve the structural performance and prevent the brittle failure of structural members. In the case of steel structures, slender seismic braces have been widely used for buildings, towers, and bridges. The brace connections...
