This paper presents a theoretical model to simulate the behaviour of RC beams strengthened with multilayered CFRP matrix allowing for inter-layer slip. An element of the composite beam is assumed to be subjected to a system of forces that satisfy equilibrium and compatibility of deformations. The inter-layer slip is allowed for by relating the differential strain at the interfaces between the CFRP...
This paper reports on an experimental investigation carried out to investigate the coupling of shear–flexural strengthening of RC beams. The presence of shear straps to enhance shear strength has the dual benefit of delaying debonding of CFRP sheets used for flexural strengthening. Six RC beams were tested; having various combinations of CFRP sheets and straps in addition to an unstrengthened beam...
