Experimental study of moment redistribution in RC frames strengthened with CFRP sheets
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract The present paper describes an experimental investigation of moment redistribution of continuous beams in 6 two-span RC frames strengthened with CFRP laminates. Design variables were the number of CFRP layers, and the configuration of the laminates. To prevent debonding of the CFRP laminates at the end region and at the beam-column connection, U-shaped CFRP anchorages were provided for all of the frame specimens. Furthermore, mechanical anchorages of steel plate strips and bolts were added to the laminates in one frame of these specimens. Test results showed that a maximum moment redistribution of 56% occurred in the strengthened frames. Furthermore, the load carrying capacities of the strengthened frames increased from 20% to 38%, while the flexural capacities had an increase of 9% to 20% and 35% to 55% at the negative and positive moment regions, respectively.
