    • Glued-in basalt FRP rods as moment connections in box section frames 

      O’Neill, Caoimhe; McPolin, Daniel; Taylor, Su; Harte, Annette M. (TU Verlag Wien, 2016-08-22)
      This paper presents an experimental programme that investigates the application of glued-in rods as moment connections in a post and beam connection. Nine such frame corners were constructed of box sections using ...

    • Mechano-sorptive creep in reinforced glulam 

      O'Ceallaigh, Conan; Sikora, Karol; McPolin, Daniel; Harte, Annette M. (National University of Ireland Galway, 2018-08-20)
      An investigation was carried out to examine the effect of reinforcement on the creep behaviour of FRP reinforced timber elements in a controlled variable climate. Creep is accelerated by moisture variations due to a ...

    • Viscoelastic creep of FRP reinforced glulam 

      O’Ceallaigh, Conan; Sikora, Karol; McPolin, Daniel; Harte, Annette M. (NUI Galway, 2016-08-29)
      The reinforcement of timber using fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) rods or plates is widely accepted as an effective method of increasing the strength and stiffness of members, while at the same time reducing the variability ...
