Flexural strengthening of reinforced concrete beams with CFRP laminates and spike anchors
Carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRP) are widely used to strengthen reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Its major drawback is the brittle failure mode in the form of debonding of the CFRP laminate. The use of CFRP spike anchors demonstrated positive outcomes in mitigating the debonding failure in smal...
