description The fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping is widely used in concrete column strengthening, as it can enhance concrete strength and ductility. This study aims to develop finite element numerical model that can capture the behavior of the short cylinder column confined with CFRP. After validating the proposed finite element models with previous experimental works, a series of parametric studies have been conducted, including, CFRP number of layers, concrete grade, confinement configuration, and size of samples are investigated in terms of stress-strain curves, ductility, and volumetric strain. The results indicate a significant improvement in concrete strength after fully CFRP wrapping. However, the partial confinement records less improvement in concrete strength but considerable ductility. By increasing the specimen’s size and maintaining the same confinement ratio, the strength enhancement was decreased. Based on this observation; it can be concluded that; by increasing the samples sizes, it should be escorted with more confining ratio than that of the small size. Moreover, it was concluded that as the number of layers increases the ductility increases whether it was full or partial confinement configuration. The CFRP confinement can control the specimen’s dilation during the axial compression test thus presenting less volumetric strain. The proposed formula by (Lam & Teng, 2003) that can predict the stress-strain response of FRP full confined concrete cylinder was compared with the corresponding values. The results indicated that; a good matching was noticed only for the samples located in the same area that was studied by (Lam & Teng, 2003).
