Abstract:Strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) members in bridges and buildings is often required to improve flexural performance. Strengthening using fiber‐reinforced polymer (FRP) composites has become popular as FRPs offer multiple advantages compared with conventional strengthening practices like steel jacketing and concrete enlargement. External bonding (EB) using carbon FRP (CFRP) laminates/fabric has become a common strengthening practice. The effectiveness of the EB strengthened system is reduced due to pos… Show more
