Abstract
The experimental program reported here was conducted to gain insight into the behavior of concrete confined with fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs). A total of 112 cylindrical concrete specimens, each 150 mm in diameter, 300 mm in height, and concrete strength up to 112 MPa, were tested under monotonic uniaxial compression. Test variables included amount of FRP, strength and stiffness of FRP, concrete strength, and the health of concrete at the time of strengthening. Results showed that, with an increase of the unconfined concrete strength, the strength enhancement, energy absorption capacity, ductility factor, and work (energy) index at rupture of FRP jackets all decreased remarkably. A positive correlation was found between concrete ductility and FRP rupture strain. A gradual post-peak failure of the specimens, observed previously from FRP-confined concrete columns tested at the University of Toronto, was also observed in some of the current tests. This ductile failure, attributed to the gradual unzipping failure of FRP jacket, is related to specimen size and is explained in terms of various confinement parameters.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
