Mr. Rayhan Md. Faysal worked on modifying the existing double shear test setup for studying the FRP-Concrete bond. The modified setup was successfully used to study the FRP-concrete bond behaviour. Besides, he did an extensive literature review of the effect on the FRP-concrete bond due to the hygrothermal environment. For his M.Sc. research, he worked on recycled aggregate (RA). The objective of this research was to improve the qualities of the recycled aggregate (RA) and evaluate its performance in the concrete. His B.Sc. research was focused on the relative comparison of wind load among BNBC and other codes in different types of areas.
