Abstract:The present study assesses the efficacy of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates in enhancing the strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) flat slab-column connections under both punching shear and seismic loading conditions. A comprehensive parametric analysis is conducted using the Abaqus finite element software, encompassing 33 distinct models with variations in key parameters including loading conditions, number of fiber layers, orientation, thicknesses, and dimensions of the CFRP plate. The numer… Show more
