Experimental Analysis of Panels Using Alternative Reinforcement (Basalt Bars) A Review

Abstract

An Experimental analysis that develops into the performance of panels reinforced with basalt bars, offering a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional steel reinforcement. By meticulously conducting a range of designed experiments, the study assesses the mechanical properties and structural behavior of these panels. Through comparison with panels reinforced using traditional steel reinforcement, the feasibility and effectiveness of basalt bars are evaluated. Additionally, the research investigates the long-term performance and durability of basalt-reinforced panels under varying environmental conditions. This comprehensive study aims to provide valuable insights into the potential applications of basalt bars as a sustainable reinforcement option in construction, shedding light on their structural capabilities and any advantages or limitations they may present when compared to conventional materials. By exploring innovative and environmentally friendly alternatives within the realm of structural engineering, this research contributes to the ongoing efforts to enhance the sustainability of construction practices.
