In the last years, a great number of experimental tests have been performed to determine the ultimate strength of reinforced concrete beams retrofitted in shear by means of externally bonded fibre-reinforced polymers (FRP). Most of design proposals for shear strengthening are based on a regression a
## Abstract The use of fibre reinforced polymer, FRP, as reinforcement for concrete structures has been growing rapidly in recent years. This paper summarizes the current state of knowledge of these materials and highlights the various FRP strengthening techniques that have been used for concrete a
The prediction of the shear capacity of reinforced concrete beams retrofitted in shear by means of externally bonded FRP is very complex as demonstrate the studies carried out up to date. As alternative to the conventional methods two approaches based on artificial intelligence are proposed for the
