Connecting steel to concrete with epoxy / polymer adhesive
Connecting steel to concrete with epoxy / polymer adhesive
(OP)
I am interested in learning about specific cases of using epoxy or polymer adhesive to connect steel plates to concrete beams........as reinforcement.........particularly seeking information on shear, modulus of elasticity and creep potential........
