Characterization of the Bond between Textile Reinforced Cement and Extruded Polystyrene by Shear Test Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Loadbearing sandwich panels used as wall elements are a promising development since they combine structural and energy efficiency. Composite behaviour needs to be ensurd so that the sandwich panel works as one element under a flexural load (meaning that the shear forces due to bending are transferred from one face to the other). To assure this full composite behaviour, an investigation of the bond strength between the faces and the core of the ...
