Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract : This article presents the results of a pendulum impact test carried out on full-scale types PL-2 and PL-3 concrete bridge barriers reinforced with a new type of glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars. For comparison purpose, the test was similar to other tests carried out in 2001 at University of Sherbrooke (Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada) on similar barriers reinforced with an old type of GFRP or steel bars. A total of two full-scale 10-m-long barrier prototypes were constructed and tested. The tests included one PL-2 and one PL-3 prototypes. Pendulum crash tests using a 3.0-t pear-shaped iron ball were performed for the two barriers. The behaviour of the barriers was evaluated in terms of cracking pattern, crack width, and strains in reinforcing bars. The results of this investigation led to the conclusion that the behaviour of the concrete bridge barriers reinforced with the new GFRP bars is similar to their counterparts reinforced with the old GFRP bars or conventional steel.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
