Abstract
ABSTRACTAn exotensioned composite structure is developed as a light-weight and low-cost load carrying members for structural applications. The beam body, consisting of carbon-fiber composite skeletons with insertions of high-tension fiber strands, is externally weaved to provide extra structural integrity. Monotonic and cyclic flexural loading experiments are performed in this study to quantify the basic mechanical response of the structure. The bending strength, ductility, and fatigue resistance are specifically assessed.
