A 3D modelling on RC beams strengthened externally by Mengkuang Leaves-Epoxy Composite Plate: finite element analysis

The research presents a finite element analysis modelling to investigate the behaviour of reinforced concrete beam strengthened externally using Mengkuang Leaves-Epoxy Composite Plate (MLECP). ANSYS CivilFEM 12.0 is used in this research. The major objectives of the research are to study the structu...
