본 연구에서는 아라미드섬유쉬트로 휨 보강된 RC 보의 파괴양상을 분석하고, 부착파괴를 방지하기 위한 실험연구를 수행하였다. 아라미드섬유쉬트의 부착파괴 방지상세에 대한 효과를 검증하기 위하여 총 5개의 실험체를 제작 실험하였다. 분석결과에 의하면 기존에 사용되어온 단순부착식이나 단부 U보강상세를 적용한 실험체는 아라미드섬유쉬트의 재료변형률보다 낮은 변형률에서 부착파괴되는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 본 연구에서 제안한 중앙부 U보강상세와 에폭시 전단키를 적용한 실험체는 아라미드섬유쉬트의 부착파괴를 억제함으로써 충분한 보강성능을 발휘하는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 유리섬유시트로 휨보강된 RC 보의 파괴 양상을 분석하고, 부착파괴를 방지하기 위한 실험 연구를 수행하였다. 부착파괴를 방지하기 위한 방법으로 부착길이를 증가시키는 방법과 U형 보강 방법 및 에폭시 전단키 보강 상세에 대하여 검증하였다. 유리섬유시트의 부착길이는 콘크리트 계면과 보강재 사이의 부착강도를 가정하여 계산하였다. U형 보강 방법은 콘크리트 밑면에 부착된 유리섬유시트의 단부 혹은 중앙부를 U형으로 감싸서 보강하였다. 콘크리트 하부에 매립된 전단키는 유리섬유시트의 인장력에 대하여 충분한 부착력을 제공하도록 하였다. 단부 U 보강과 중앙부 U 보강은 부착파괴를 방지하기 위해 기존에 제안된 방법이며, 에폭시 전단키는 본 연구에서 제시된 새로운 방지 상세이다. 유리섬유시트의 부착파괴 방지 상세에 대한 효과를 검증하기 위하여 총 6개의 실험체를 제작 실험하였다. 본 실험 결과에 의하면 부착길이 및 단부 U 보강 상세를 적용하는 방법은 조기 부착파괴를 억제하지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 중앙부 U 보강 상세는 보강재를 따라 발생하는 박리균열의 진행을 억제시키기 때문에 부착파괴를 지연하는 효과가 있으며, 전단키의 경우는 부착파괴를 충분히 방지하며 유리섬유시트의 파단을 유도하는 것으로 나타났다.

The strengthening method with CFS(Carbon Fiber Sheet) to reinforced concrete structures has a fatal defect. Strengthened beams have been almost failed far below their ultimate strength due to interface debonding failure between the surface of concrete and CFS. The purpose of this study is to investigate the failure mechanism and failure behavior of strengthened RC beam using CFS.

CFRP strips manufactured in factory are produced normally with smaller width and larger thickness than CFRP sheets. By this reason, bonding force between CFRP strips and concrete substrate is not sufficient to sustain tensile force in CFRP strips. Therefore premature debonding failure cannot be avoided when strengthening is done by simply bonding the CFRP strips. The flexural strength of RC beam strengthened with CFRP strips must be calculated based on the effective strain considering debonding failure. This paper presents test results of an experimental study conducted to evaluate the flexural strength on RC beams strengthened with CFRP strips. 7 specimens were tested with respect to bond length and amount of CFRP strips. From the test results, it was indicated that the strain of the CFRP strips achieved at debonding failure can be decreased less than 6,000$\mu$ depending on the amount of CFRP strips.

This paper presents test results to prevent debonding failure of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with near-surface mounted(NSM) CFRP. Beams strengthened with different strengthening systems with externally bonded CFRP, NSM CFRP and NSM CFRP with mechanical interlocking. Test results indicated that using NSM CFRP is improved the stiffness and increased the flexural capacity of RC beams and NSM CFRP with mechanical interlocking prevented debonding failure of RC beams.

There is significant concern in the engineering community regarding the safety and effectiveness of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthening of RC structures because of the potential for brittle debonding failures. In this paper, previous research programs conducted by other researchers were reviewed in terms of the debonding failure of FRP laminates externally attached to concrete. This review article also discusses the influences on bond strength and failure modes as well as the existing experimental research and developed equations. Based on the review, several important conclusions were re-emphasized, including the finding that the bond transfer strength is proportional to the concrete compressive strength; that there is a certain bond development length that has to be exceeded; and that thinner adhesive layers in fact lower the chances of a concrete-adhesive interface failure. It is also found that there exist uncertainty and inaccuracy in the available models when compared with the experimental data and inconsistency among the models. This demonstrates the need for continuing research and compilation of data on the topic of FRP's bond strength.

This paper discussed and analyzed the interfacial stress distribution characteristic of adjacent cracks in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) plate strengthened concrete slabs. One un-strengthened concrete test beam and four CFRP plate-strengthened concrete test beams were designed to carry out four-point flexural tests. The test data shows that the interfacial shear stress between the interface of CFRP plate and concrete can effectively reduce the crack shrinkage of the tensile concrete and reduces the width of crack. The maximum main crack flexural height in pure bending section of the strengthened specimen is smaller than that of the un-strengthened specimen, the CFRP plate improves the rigidity of specimens without brittle failure. The average ultimate bearing capacity of the CFRP-strengthened specimens was increased by 64.3% compared to that without CFRP-strengthen. This indicites that CFRP enhancement measures can effectively improve the ultimate bearing capacity and delay the occurrence of debonding damage. Based on the derivation of mechanical analysis model, the calculation formula of interfacial shear stress between adjacent cracks is proposed. The distributions characteristics of interfacial shear stress between certain crack widths were given. In the intermediate cracking region of pure bending sections, the length of the interfacial softening near the mid-span cracking position gradually increases as the load increases. The CFRP-concrete interface debonding capacity with the larger adjacent crack spacing is lower than that with the smaller adjacent crack spacing. The theoretical calculation results of interfacial bonding shear stress between adjacent cracks have good agreement with the experimental results. The interfacial debonding failure between adjacent cracks in the intermediate cracking region was mainly caused by the root of the main crack. The larger the spacing between adjacent cracks exists, the easier the interfacial debonding failure occurs.

Nominal flexural strength of RC members strengthened with FRP sheets is generally based on the tensile strength of composite materials obtained from coupon tests. This method is based on the assumption that bond failure does not occur until the FRP sheet reaches its rupture strength. According to the previous researches, however, bond failure often occurs before the FRP sheet reaches its rupture strength. Some attempts were made to control debonding failure by increasing the bonded length of sheet or wrapping the section around their side of the member(U-wrap). In this study, the flexural failure mechanism of RC beams strengthened with AFRP sheets with different bond lengths is investigated. Their strengthening details to prevent the premature debonding failure are also suggested and its effectiveness is verified.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the interface debonding failure on RC beams strengthened with carbon fiber sheet(CFS). The behavior of damaged RC beams strengthened with CFS is analytically investigated using both linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) approach and the finite element method. This study includes the investigation of the separation mode by interface fracture of the strengthening materials due to the interfacial shear and normal stresses.

RC shear walls are considered one of the main lateral resisting members in buildings. In recent years, FRP has been widely utilized in order to strengthen and retrofit concrete structures. A number of experimental studies used CFRP sheets as an external bracing system for retrofitting of RC shear walls. It has been found that the common mode of failure is the debonding of the CFRP-concrete adhesive material. In this study, behavior of RC shear wall was investigated with three different micro models. The analysis included 2D model using plane stress element, 3D model using shell element and 3D model using solid element. To allow for the debonding mode of failure, the adhesive layer was modeled using cohesive surface-to-surface interaction model at 3D analysis model and node-to-node interaction method using Cartesian elastic-plastic connector element at 2D analysis model. The FE model results are validated comparing the experimental results in the literature. It is shown that the proposed FE model can predict the modes of failure due to debonding of CFRP and behavior of CFRP strengthened RC shear wall reasonably well. Additionally, using 2D plane stress model, many parameters on the behavior of the cohesive surfaces are investigated such as fracture energy, interfacial shear stress, partial bonding, proposed CFRP anchor location and using different bracing of CFRP strips. Using two anchors near end of each diagonal CFRP strips delay the end debonding and increase the ductility for RC shear walls.
