Abstract:
The study presented in this paper was undertaken to determine the sensitivity of polyester concrete compressive strength to an increase in temperature; the effects of temperature cycling on compressive strength; the bonding strength of polyester concrete to portland cement concrete; and the modulus of elasticity of polyester concrete.
