• Bond and shear-strengthening performance of FRCM composites 

      Younis, Adel; Ebead, Usama A ( ISEC Press , 2019 , Conference Paper)
      This paper is aimed at studying the bond and shear-strengthening performance of fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems. Three FRCM systems were compared, namely, polyparaphenylene benzobisoxazole (PBO)-FRCM, ...
    • Development of high-strength lightweight non-autoclaved aerated concrete 

      Ebead, Usama A.; Shrestha, Kshitij C.; Saeed, Huda ( ICE Publishing , 2020 , Article)
      Six concrete mixes with different proportions of various pozzolanic materials were investigated for the development of high-strength non-autoclaved aerated concrete (NAAC). Fly ash and slag were used as partial cement ...
    • Effectiveness of FRCM system in strengthening reinforced concrete beams 

      Ebead, Usama A.; Shrestha, Kshitij C.; Afzal, Muhammad S.; El Refai, Ahmed; Nanni, Antonio ( International Committee of the SCMT conferences , 2016 , Conference Paper)
      In this paper, experimental work has been reported to investigate the efficiency of fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) in enhancing the flexural capacity and deformational characteristics of reinforced concrete ...
    • Nonlinear finite element analysis of fibre-reinforced polymer/concrete joints 

      Abdel Baky, Hussien; Ebead, Usama A; Neale, Kenneth W ( SAGE Publications Inc. , 2016 , Article)
      The objective of this research work is to simulate the interfacial shear response of fibre-reinforced polymer/concrete joints using a micromechanics-based concrete approach. The M4 version of the microplane concrete theory ...
    • Performance of corrosion-aged Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams rehabilitated with Fabric-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) 

      Elghazy, Mohammed; Refai, Ahmed El; Ebead, Usama A.; Nanni, Antonio ( International Committee of the SCMT conferences , 2016 , Conference Paper)
      This paper reports on the feasibility of using fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems to rehabilitate corrosion-damaged reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Seven large-scale RC beams were constructed and tested ...
    • Shear behavior of RC beams strengthened with different types of FRCM: Effect of stirrups' configuration 

      Wakjira, Tadesse G.; Ebead, Usama A ( ISEC Press , 2019 , Conference Paper)
      Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix, (FRCM) system has shown to be promising for the strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams. However, the available experimental investigation on the shear strengthening efficacy ...
    • Strengthening of RC beams using near surface embedded-FRCM 

      Ebead, Usama A; El-Sherif, Hossameldin ( ISEC Press , 2019 , Conference Paper)
      Fibre reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems are mostly externally bonded (EB) for the strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) and masonry structures. In this paper, the relatively new concept of near-surface ...
