Strengthening of Eccentrically Loaded Reinforced Concrete Columns with Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Wrapping System: Experimental Investigation and Analytical Modeling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of experimental program and analytical modeling for performance evaluation of a fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping system to upgrade eccentrically loaded reinforced concrete (RC) columns. ...
Nonlinear Flexural Response of Continuous Concrete Slab Strips Strengthened with Near Surface–Mounted Composites
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper aims to study the nonlinear flexural response of continuous RC slab strips strengthened with near surface–mounted (NSM) composite reinforcement in either the sagging or the hogging region. The study comprised ...
Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Repair to Extend Service Life of Corroded Reinforced Concrete Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental study designed to investigate the viability of using externally bonded carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates to extend the service life of corroded reinforced ...
Retrofitting of Severely Shear-Damaged Concrete T-Beams Using Externally Bonded Composites and Mechanical End Anchorage
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effectiveness of using an externally bonded carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (EB-CFRP) system with mechanical end anchorage to retrofit severely shear-damaged reinforced concrete (RC) beams is examined in this paper. A ...
Innovative Repair of Severely Corroded T-Beams Using Fabric-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper offers an innovative technique for rehabilitation of severely corroded reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams using fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM). Eight RC T-beam specimens were constructed and tested ...
Computer-Based Mathematical Model for Performance Prediction of Corroded Beams Repaired with Fiber Reinforced Polymers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A new mathematical model for predicting the inelastic flexural response of corroded reinforced concrete (RC) beams repaired with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) laminates is presented. The model accounts for the effect of ...
