Torsional behavior of reinforced concrete T-beams strengthened with CFRP strips

Torsion is resisted well by locked system of reinforcement, due to the blood nature of the torsion induced-shear flow stresses in a beam. Therefore, it will be more effective to have strengthening schemes, which are wrapped in closed form around the cross section. But strengthening with U wrap (thre...
