Influence of BFRP Mesh on UHPC Wet Bonding Performance by Yushi Yin, Min Zhang, Guan-hua Zhang

“…At present, research on the wet bonding behavior of UHPC is very rare, so in order to investigate the interfacial bonding performance between basalt fiber-reinforced plastic (BFRP) mesh cloth and ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) under wet bonding conditions, forty-eight BFRP-UHPC specimens were carried out to investigate the influence of dry/wet bonding type, mesh depth, and mesh thickness on the interfacial bonding performance between BFRP and UHPC, and the failure mechanism of the BFRP-UHPC interface was revealed by SEM detection. The test results show that the interfacial wet bonding performance between BFRP and UHPC is better than that of the dry bonding process. …”
