Experimental Study on Freezing-Thawing and Warm-Moisture Resistance of FRP Composites used in Strengthening RC Members
FRP 복합체의 동결융해 및 고온.고습 저항성에 관한 실험 연구
- Published : 2006.05.11
Abstract
FRP composites which are used in strengthening existing structure are usually adhered to the concrete surface, their performance are directly affected by environmental condition such as freezing-thawing and moisture. Accordingly, it is required to evaluate bond durability between FRP composite and concrete as well as FRP materials itself. The durability characteristics of FRP composite for freezing-thawing are evaluated in this study with the variables of concrete strength, type of FRP composite, freezing-thawing conditions and freezing-thawing cycle. In addition, material durability of GFRP sheet for high temperature/high humidity condition are examined in this experimental study.
