본 연구의 목적은 철근콘크리트 휨 부재에 탄소섬유시트, 유리섬유시트, PET(polyethylene terephthalate) 섬유 등을 이용하여 보강했을 때, 보강재 종류, 보강재 물성, 보강량 등에 따른 보강효과를 파악하는 것이다. 변수별 보강효과를 파악하기 위해 가상의 휨부재를 기준실험체로 선정하여, 기준실험체에 대해 항복단면과 극한단면일 때의 모멘트-곡률 관계를 파악하였다. 보강하지 않은 기준실험체에 보강재 종류, 보강재 물성, 보강량 등 다양한 변수를 적용하여 총 11개의 실험체의 모멘트-곡률 곡선을 비교하였다. 분석 결과, 보강하지 않은 실험체에 비해 보강한 실험체의 휨강도는 높게 나타났다. 그러나 연성에 대해서는 보강하지 않은 기준실험체가 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 변수별 휨 보강효과는 보강량이 많고, 파괴시 재료강도가 높을수록 우수하게 나타났으며, 연성효과는 보강재의 파괴시 변형률이 높을수록 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 손상 전과 손상 후의 보강효과에 대해서는 휨보강 효과와 연성효과 모두 10% 이내로 미미하게 나타나 손상상태에 있더라도 온전한 상태로 해석해도 큰 차이가 없을 것으로 판단된다.
The objective of this study is to assess the strengthening effects of fiber reinforced polymer(FRP) sheets such as Carbon fiber, Glass fiber, and PET(polyethylene terephthalate) on reinforced concrete flexural members. Variables of theoretical analysis are types of strengthening materials, material properties and amount of strengthening materials. A virtual flexural member without FRP sheets was created as a control specimen to understand the structural behavior of the non-strengthened specimen in terms of elastic and ultimate cross section. In total, 11 specimens including one non-strengthened and ten strengthened specimens were investigated. Various variables such as types of strengthening, strengthening properties, and amount of strengthening were studied to compare the behavior of the control specimen with those of strengthened specimens with regard to moment-curvature relationship. Results of theoretical analysis showed that the moment capacity of strengthened specimens was superior to that of the control specimen. However, the control specimen indicated the best ductility among all the specimens. As the amount of strengthening increased, flexural performance was improved. Furthermore, the results indicated that the ductile effect of members was affected by the ultimate strain of FRP sheets. The strengthening effect on the damaged member was similar to that on the non-damaged one since there was less than 10% difference in terms of flexural strength and ductility. Therefore, even if a damaged member is treated as non-damaged for analysis there is probably no noticeable difference.
