Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Conference Paper Description
Steel Sandwich composites have been used widely in offshore industry. However, the use of steel is unsustainable and require expensive maintenance. Glass-Fibre-Reinforced Polymer plates are potential replacements as they possess high tensile strength and many advantages. In this research, GFRP sandwiches with one and two-face configurations and Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC) as the core are constructed to investigate their ultimate behaviour against bending. Mechanical Connectors are used as shear-resistant elements. Moreover, the effect of shear span to depth ratio (a/d) is investigated. Results show that load resistance increases with thickness of ECC core. However, the use of GFRP plates in the compression zone of section rendered ineffective due to the fact that GFRP cannot act in compression. All slabs tested have not experienced any diagonal shear cracks while all crack formed were flexural. All slabs showed a significant deflection capacity and ductility prior to failure.
