Strength Development of Epoxy Grouts for Pipeline Rehabilitation

Polymeric composites are increasingly being used as infill material in civil engineering applications for repairing damaged structures, including corroded pipelines. In repairing damaged pipelines, combination of composite layer and infill materials is a preferable technique used in oil and gas indu...
