Upgrading the shear strength of non-ductile reinforced concrete frame connections using FRP overlay systems

This investigation presents the use of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composite systems in upgrading existing reinforced concrete frames to meet strength and ductility requirements laid out in recent ACI building codes (ACI-318. 2002). Analytical calculations are presented for the shear behavior of...
