This study introduces a new CFRC-strengthened RC beam model which can both strengthen and monitor the large-scale RC element used in concrete infrastructures. An experiment of testing four-point bending beams is proceeded in order to analyze mechanical behavior and electrical property of the designe

External bonding of fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) strips to reinforced concrete (RC) beams has been widely accepted as an effective method for strengthening. The ultimate flexural strength of strengthened RC beams can be improved significantly, but it is often impaired by premature failure modes, s
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
