RISExtending the Fatigue Life of Reinforced Concrete T-Beams Strengthened in Shear with Externally Bonded FRP: Upgrading versus Repairing
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Rehabilitation and upgrading of existing civil infrastructures have become a major concern that definitely requires attention. The use of externally bonded carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (EB-CFRP) to strengthen deficient ...
New Anchorage Technique for FRP Shear-Strengthened RC T-Beams Using CFRP Rope
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study investigates the effectiveness of a new anchorage technique for fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) shear-strengthened reinforced concrete T-beams using carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) ropes. The rope is a ...
Multilayer versus Monolayer Externally Bonded CFRP Sheets for Shear Strengthening of Concrete T-Beams
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The use of externally bonded (EB) carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP) fabrics for strengthening existing structures has received worldwide acceptance since the late 1990s. The composites produced at the time were of low ...
Fatigue Behavior in the Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Polymer-to-Concrete Bond by Cyclic Pull-Out Test: Experimental and Analytical Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Today’s construction industry has been more inclined to apply innovative rehabilitation techniques, including externally bonded (EB) fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites on existing RC structures, rather than traditional ...
Size Effect of RC T-Beams Strengthened in Shear with Externally Bonded CFRP L-Shaped Laminates
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: For conventional reinforced concrete (RC) beams, it is well established that the so-called size effect tends to decrease the shear strength attributed to concrete at failure when the size is increased. This contrasts with ...
