Calculation of Flexural Capacity of High-strength Reinforced Concrete Beams Strengthened with FRP

摘要

The mechanical properties of high-strength reinforced concrete beams strengthened with FRP (fiber reinforce polymer) are further investigated theoretically including it s failure mechanism and loadability, based on earlier theoretical works on RC beams. And the correlation equation of flexural capacity on the cross section of high-strength reinforced concrete beams strengthened with FRP is deduced according to different types of failure. The correlation equation is shown to be in good agreement with the experimental results, which can be referred to engineering application.
