This paper presents an experimental study to strengthen the shear capacity of non-seismic joints using Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) materials. Eight exterior RC beam-column joint specimens including a non-seismic specimen, a seismic specimen and six retrofitted specimens with different con

This paper reports experimental studies of reinforced concrete (RC) beams retrofitted with new hybrid fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) system consisting carbon FRP (CFRP) and glass FRP (GFRP). The objective of this study is to examine effect of hybrid FRPs on structural behavior of retrofitted RC beam
This paper presents a joint experimental-analytical investigation aimed at studying the brittle failure modes of RC members strengthened in flexure by FRP plates. Both midspan and plate end failure modes are studied. The finite element analyses are based on nonlinear fracture mechanics. The model co
