Crack growth of fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP)/polymer mixed concrete (PMC) system (bonded by polyester resin) due to constant load/stress / Hasnol Harun

Cement concrete have been used in construction industry for many years because of their good compressive strength, cheap, and lasting. However, cement concrete that we are using are brittle, easy crack, and water can diffuse through the cement concrete due to bending and tensile load. Because of tha...
