Abstract

In recent years, the repair of damaged reinforced concrete members strengthened by the external bonding of fiber-reinforced polymer laminates has received considerable attention. This paper investigates shear capacity of RC beams strengthened in the shear span with the Glass-Fiber and Steel-Composite Plate(GSP) experimentally. There are 2 types of strengthening method by GSP in RC beams. Test results are compared with that of each reference specimen which is not strengthened with GSP.
