| description abstract | Research has shown that fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites can increase flexural, axial, and shear capacity of beams, columns, and walls. The present paper describes both experimental and analytical programs focused on the torsional strengthening of reinforced concrete spandrel beams using composite laminates. The variables considered in this study included fiber orientation, composite laminate, and effects of a laminate anchoring system. The study proved that the FRP laminates could increase the torsional capacity of concrete beams by more than 70%. The analytical procedure developed revealed a good comparison between experimental and analytical results. | |
