Tensile strength of CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) is approximately 10 times higher than that steel reinforcement, but the design strength of CFRP is normally reduced by the bond failure between RC and CFRP. Many researches have been carried out, concerned with bond behavior between RC and CFRP to prevent the unpredicted bond failure of RC beam strengthened by CFRP, but the national design code for design bond strength of CFRP hasn't been constructed. In this study, 3 beams specimen strengthened by CFRP under the variable of bonded length were tested to derive the design bond strength of CFRP to the RC flexural members. Also 2 beams specimen strengthened by CFRP were tested to inspect the construction environment effects such as mixing error of epoxy resin and the amount of primer epoxy resin. From the test results, It is concluded that the maximum design bond strength of CFRP to RC flexural member is considered to be $\tau_{a}$=8kgf/$cm^{2}$.

The concrete bridge decks are in need of replacement and rehabilitation due to decreasing load carrying capacity. In this study, to extend life cycle of the concrete bridge decks which are reinforced with the glass fiber sheets, the concrete bridge decks are examined on the strengthen effect and the fatigue behavior. The behavior of strengthened slabs is represented by load-displacement relationship, variation of compliance and total released energy. Owing to result of that, the strengthened slabs is modified the elasticity, the compliance and represents to control the crack elongation, to elevate the total released energy, to modify the fatigue life. When the concrete bridge deck is strengthened, the crack propagation nay be controled efficiently.

Although there are strong needs for evaluating statistical characteristics of strengthened reinforced concrete beams under flexure, many researches have been performed mostly on the mechanical properties and failure mechanisms. Different material properties and resulting reinforcing effect could alter the probabilistic values of the strengthened beams. Existing equations suggested for predicting flexural strengthened reinforced concrete beam with CFRP and steel plate are selected and best-fitting one is used in evaluating probability of failure based on Monte-Carlo method. Influential factors are statistically examined and approximate strength reduction factors are suggested. It was found that the factor is more sensitively influenced by predictive equations as well as characteristics and amounts of strengthening materials.

The behaviour of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with near surface mounted (NSM) CFRP prestressed prisms was experimentally investigated. Five RC beams were tested under four point bending. All beams were made with dimensions of 300 mm in width, 2000 mm in length and 150 in depth. The effects of presstress level of CFRP prestressed prisms and prism material type were studied. The failure mode, load capacity, deflection, CFRP strain, steel strain and ductility of the tested beams were all analyzed. The results showed that the behavior of the reinforced concrete beams strengthened with NSM CFRP prestressed prisms showed a significant increase in the load-carrying capacity and the deformation capacity. The NSM CFRP prestressed prisms strengthening technique could be considered as an effective method for repairing RC structures.

This paper presents a numerical study on the behavior of continuous hollow steel beam strengthened using carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP). Most previous studies on the CFRP strengthening of steel beams have been carried out on the steel beams with simple boundary conditions. No independent study, to the researcher's knowledge, has studied on the CFRP strengthening of square hollow section (SHS) continuous steel beam. However, this study explored the effect of the use of adhesively bonded CFRP flexible sheets on the behavior of the continuous SHS steel beams. Finite Element Method (FEM) has been employed for modeling. Eleven specimens, ten of which were strengthened using CFRP sheets, were analyzed under different coverage length, the number of layers, and the location of CFRP composite. ANSYS software was used to analyze the SHS steel beams. The results showed that the coverage length, the number of layers, and the location of CFRP composite are effective in increasing the ultimate load capacity of the continuous SHS steel beams. Application of CFRP composite also caused the ductility increase some strengthened specimens.

Recently, the need for strengthening reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete structure is increasing, particularly when there is an increase in load requirements, a change in use, a degradation problem, or some design/construction defects. Therefore, use of composite materials for structural repair presents several advantages and has been investigated all over the world. In this paper, the reinforced concrete slabs with epoxy - bonded AFRP sheed were experimentally investigated. Experimental data on strength. stiffness, material strain, deflection and mode of failure of strengthened slabs were obtained, and comparisons between the different flexural reinforcing schemes and reinforced concrete slabs without AFRP sheets were made It can be concluded that flexural strength of RC slabs strengthened with AFRP has increased, and that ductility of strengthened slabs has decreased.

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.

본 연구에서는 탄소섬유시트로 보강된 RC 기둥의 횡방향 거동을 해석적으로 분석하고 그 결과를 기존의 실험결과와 비교함으로써 해석기법의 타당성을 검증하였다. 해석 시 RC 기둥과 탄소섬유시트 사이의 부착거동 특성을 반영하기 위해 경계면 요소를 고려하였으며, 경계면 거동에 따른 RC 기둥 전체의 거동 변화를 비교 분석하였다. 이를 통해 경계면 요소를 고려한 해석의 필요성과 해석 기법의 타당성을 확인하였다.

The function of carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) reinforcement in increasing the ductility of reinforced concrete (RC) deep beam is important in such shear-sensitive RC member. This paper aims to investigate the effect of CFRP-strengthening on the energy absorption of RC deep beams. Six ordinary RC deep beams and six CFRP-strengthened RC deep beams with shear span to the effective depth ratio of 0.75, 1.00, 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, and 2.00 were tested till failure in this research. An empirical relationship was established to obtain the energy absorption of CFRP-strengthened RC deep beams. The shear span to the effective depth ratio and growth of energy absorption of CFRP-strengthened deep beam were the significant factors to establish this relationship.

The structural behavior of reinforced concrete slabs strengthened by glass fiber reinforced plastic-panels experimentally investigated. The experimental variables are strengthening length, strengthening width, and pre-crack existence. The pre-cracked slabs are initially loaded to 70 percent of ultimate flexural capacity and subsequently repaired with GFRP-Panels bonded to the tension face of the slabs. Five one-way slabs were tested to failure. The main failure mode of strengthened slabs is separation failure by crack propagation from load point section to end of plate. The behavior of strengthened slabs is represented by a maximum load, load-deflection curves an load-strain curves.
