End cover separation and shear crack debond are the two most critical debonding modes in beams retrofitted with fibre reinforced polymer composites due the brittle nature of the failures. However, these failures are still not fully understood. A testing program including 18 rectangular reinforced concrete beams is carried out to investigate the failure mechanisms and the influence of several parameters...
A reinforced concrete beam retrofitted with fibre reinforced polymer composites (FRP) to enhance its flexural capacity can experience several failure modes, namely flexural failure, end debond and midspan debond. The mechanism of those failures and available prediction models are first identified in this paper. The models are then assessed with an up to date database of beams reported in literature...
