Flexural Behaviour of Concrete Beams Bonded with Wire Mesh-Epoxy Composite
This paper investigates the flexural performance of plain concrete beams bonded with wire mesh-epoxy composite. A total of four beam specimens were prepared and tested. Three specimens were bonded with same amount of wire mesh-epoxy composite with varying composite width and one plain concrete specimen was used as a control. The effect of wire mesh-epoxy composite on enhancing the flexural behaviour of concrete beams as well as the effect of different configurations of composite was studied. Test results showedthat the wire mesh-epoxy composite increased the flexural strength of concrete beams. The increase in energy absorption of bonded beams was remarkable. In addition, specimen with large composite width showed better behaviour with respect to energy absorption capability.
