Abstract

The target of this study is to compare and analyze the strengthening effect of damaged reinforced concrete beams under unloading and loading conditions through the simulation of strengthening condition in real structures. The conclusion of test results are as follows : For the concrete beam wrapped at the side in addition to be strengthened at the bottom, the strength and stiffness increase. although the flexural capacity depends on the strengthening method, it generally shows that the strength improve in the range of 22% to 39% in comparison with the specimen without strengthening. In case of applying th equation suggested by CangaRao & Vijay for the wraped concrete beam, it must be modified because it is likely to overestimate the flexural capacity considering the height of wrapping as the width of concrete. The strength an stiffness of reinforced concrete beams in proportion to the percentage of damage decrease. Damaged beams, which are strengthened by CFS, is structurally efficient and show reduction of strength comparing with the specimen without strengthening but stiffness is increasing.
