| Abstract: |
The use of composite laggings prevents concrete (chemical and biological) corrosion. Columns coated with composite or reinforced composite are more resistant to negative environmental impact on concrete or steel. The mechanical properties of the reinforced casing also cause that these types of columns are more resistant to lateral forces. The applied casing limits carbonization of concrete and cyclical freezing and thawing with penetrating water, and thus increases the lifespan of columns exposed to water. Laboratory tests were carried out regarding the short-time load-carrying capacity of columns in a composite laggings. |
