Characterization of the Bond between Textile Reinforced Cement and Extruded Polystyrene by Shear Tests

Loadbearing sandwich panels used as wall elements are a promising development since they combine structural and energy efficiency. Composite behaviour needs to be ensured so that the sandwich panel works as one element under a flexural load (meaning that the shear forces due to bending are transferr...
