Influence of Stirrup Spacing on the Strengthening and Rehabilitating of RC T-beams Using Near-Surface Mounted Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Strips
This paper aims to investigate the effect of using different configurations of near-surface mounted carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (NSM-CFRP) strips on the shear strength of strengthened and rehabilitated reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams with different internal shear stirrup spacing. The internal s...

description | This paper aims to investigate the effect of using different configurations of near-surface mounted carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (NSM-CFRP) strips on the shear strength of strengthened and rehabilitated reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams with different internal shear stirrup spacing. The internal shear stirrup spacing was 50 and 150 mm. The NSM-CFRP strips were at an inclination of 45° and spaced at 75 and 150 mm. A total of eight beams were tested in this study: two beams without NSM-CFRP as control beams for the purpose of comparison; three beams were strengthened by NSM-CFRP; and three beams were rehabilitated by NSM-CFRP. The experimental shear capacities were compared with the theoretical values predicted by the ACI 440.2R-17. The results indicated that the use of NSM-CFRP strips enhanced the shear capacity for all beams compared to their corresponding control beams. The enhancements in the shear capacity increased with the decrease in the spacing of the internal shear stirrups and NSM-CFRP strips. The ACI 440.2R-17 was conservative in predicting the theoretical shear capacities. |
