Flexural Assessment of Blast-Damaged RC Beams Retrofitted with CFRP Sheet and Steel Fiber

Analysis of Carbon Fiber Sheet Retrofitted Rc Bridge Columns

Experimental studies were conducted by some researchers to investigate the cyclic performance of CFSretrofitted columns; however there is a need to develop analytical methods which can simulate its hysteretic response. This study presents an analysis of the hysteretic behavior of CFS-retrofitted reinforced concrete circular columns. Fiber element analysis was conducted based on cyclic constitut...

Assessment of effectiveness of CFRP repaired RC beams under different damage levels based on flexural stiffness

experimental examination of intact and cfrp retrofitted rc beams under monotonic and high cycle fatigue loadings

the aim of this research is to investigate the effect of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (cfrp) composite fabric on monotonic and fatigue behaviors of reinforced concrete beams. to control the failure occurrence, a small notch was induced at the middle span in bottom surface for all of the studied rc specimens. totally 12 beams were tested from which 6 beams tested under monotonic and 6 other t...

Investigation on Flexural Performance of RC Beams Flexurally Strengthened by Side-bonded CFRP Laminates

It is an effective way to improve the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) members by externally bonded carbon fiber reinforcement polymer (CFRP) laminates on the soffit of the members. However, there is little investigation on flexural performance of RC beam flexurally strengthened by side-bonded FRP laminates. To investigate the flexural behavior of RC beams side-bonded CFRP laminate...

Flexural Capacity of Rc Beams Strengthened with Srp and Srg

The use of externally bonded Steel-Reinforced Polymer (SRP) and Steel Reinforced Grout (SRG) composites is a promising new technology for increasing the flexural and shear capacities of reinforced concrete (RC) members. The reinforcement system in these composites is a sheet made up of unidirectional cords consisting of tightly wound ultra high strength steel wires. The reinforcement can be mol...
