14. Contribution of Externally Bonded FRP to Shear Capacity of RC Flexural Members.

Abstract

Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) materials are continuing to show great promise for use in strengthening reinforced concrete structures. These materials are an excellent option for use as external reinforcing because of their light weight, resistance to corrosion, and high strength. Externally bonded FRP sheets have been used to increase moment capacity of flexural members and to improve confinement in compression members. Investigations into the use of externally bonded FRP sheets for shear strengthening have also been conducted and have been shown to be viable. The objectives of this study were to review the current research on shear strengthening with FRP and propose design algorithms to compute the contribution of FRP to the shear capacity of reinforced concrete flexural members. Methods for computing the shear capacity based on the stress level that causes tensile fracture of the FRP sheet (at times this stress may be less than ultimate due to stress concentrations) and based on delamination of the sheet from the concrete surface are presented. Areas of research that have the potential for further development are also discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

21. Report on the South.

Author

Gold, William Jay

Subjects
BOOKS, BOOKS -- Reviews
Abstract

The article presents an overview of the book "Below the Potomac: A Book About the New South," by Virginius Dabney. Virginius Dabney's book was written for those who seek current information about Southern progress, and it does a good job of providing just that. In short, "Below the Potomac" is the product of a native son who wants to see the South come abreast of the times and, in Maury Maverick's phrase, "join the United States." In the slow but inevitable disappearance of sectional animosities and in the economic advances of recent years Mr. Dabney sees grounds for believing that this will not be too long in coming, even though he instinctively distrusts the apparently simple and generally logical programs pushed by reformers who too frequently do not understand the nature of the backwardness out of which they earnestly wish to drag the South.

Abstract

This article presents information on the book "A Thousand Small Fall," by Hans Habe. This is the first account of the Battle of France that people have had from a soldier who fought in the ranks of the French army. Hans Habe is a Hungarian journalist and novelist, an anti-fascist who was enlisted with the Twenty-first Foreign Volunteers at the outbreak of the war. Shortly before the armistice he was captured by the Germans and interned in a prison camp, from which he escaped after neatly two months. Taken simply as a story of personal adventure, "A Thousand Shall Fall" offers as much exciting reading as any book that has thus far come out of the war.

Abstract

Enzyme activity was present in pooled dental plaque that hydrolyzed dextran added to glucose. Hydrolysis of dextran occurred in the pH range of 5.15 to 7.1. Glucose released endogenously from plaque alone was equivalent in amount to that released by amyloglucosidase; therefore, it was from starchy sources. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The 5% of patients using 50% of health resources commonly have interacting and persistent multimorbid illnesses; concurrent mental health problems; impaired social networks; and/or difficulties in accessing care through the health system. To improve outcomes in these patients, it is necessary to overcome clinical and nonclinical barriers that lead to poor health, treatment resistance, high health care cost, and disability. This article describes an innovative complexity-based and outcome-oriented approach using integrated case management. It helps treating physicians and health administrators understand how to incorporate value-based case managers to optimize care for complex patients while better utilizing resources.
