An inorganic adhesive is invented to replace the organic adhesive. For the inorganic adhesive at normal temperature and different high temperatures, the microstructure and phase composition are investigated by means of X-ray diffraction （XRD） and SEM respectively. Results show that inorganic adhesive can resist at least 600 ℃ high temperature. Fire-resistance performance of inorganic adhesive can meet the requirements of fiber reinforced polymer （FRP） strengthened RC structures.展开更多

The FRP thickness, beam depth and concrete strength at ultimate load are considered as main strength parameters. A finite element (FE) by using ANSYS computer program was used to analyze the reinforced concrete beams. The numerical models were used to investigate the effect of beam depth, concrete strength, CFRP sheet configuration, and CFRP sheet thickness on the behavior of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with CFRP sheets compared with different guidelines. The results from ACI guideline show little difference compared with FE, which make it suitable for RC beams strengthened with FRP sheets.展开更多

Four RC specimens were casted with common compressive strength and reinforced with steel mesh. Specimens were strengthened with different methods such as usage of GFRP sheets, carbon fibers laminate strips and near surface mounted steel rebars. All specimens were subjected to two-point loading setup. Load was increased from zero to failure load. First crack was recorded and crack pattern was observed. The behavior of strengthened specimens was compared to that of the control specimen to judge the efficiency of the used techniques. Test results showed that the used techniques were effective in enhancing the behavior of the strengthened slabs by noteworthy values.展开更多
