The Effect of the Carbon Fiber Content on the Flexural Strength of Polymer Concrete Testing Samples and the Comparison of Polymer Concrete and U-Shaped Steel Profile Damping
This article explores the effect of carbon fiber content on the flexural strength of polymer concrete testing samples and compares the damping of polymer concrete and U-shaped steel profiles. The experiments involved and described herein consisted of flexural strength testing according to STN EN 12...
