Strengthening of RC beams using prestressed fiber reinforced polymers - A review
The use of steel and fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) for strengthening RC beams can significantly improve the flexural strength, fatigue life and the serviceability of the beams compared to un-strengthened beams. Prestressing materials enable the material to become more efficient since a greater po...
