Reinforced Concrete Beams Retrofitted with External CFRP Strips towards Enhancing the Shear Capacity

The practical difficulties in upgrading the structural performance of existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures is discussed, when retrofitting structural members by conventional RC jacketing. The use of retrofitting schemes employing externally applied fiber reinforcing polymer (FRP) strips attr...
