Abstract This paper presents the possibility to apply numerical simulation in static analysis of reinforced concrete structure strengthened with carbon fibre reinforced polymer composite strips (CFRP). Reinforced concrete beams, with strengthening in form values CFRP made of carbon fibres and epoxy resin, featuring various width, as well as non-strengthened bent beams, were analysed. The simply supported beams arranged in a free support scheme were subjected to two concentrated forces within full range of loading (until collapse). The numerical analysis was performed through application of the Finite Elements Method (FEM), and the calculation model applied took into account the geometric and physical nonlinearity. The problem was solved by application of the quasi-static strategy method of calculations using ABAQUS software. While analysing the results, we focused on the run of changes in structure displacement and development of material damage, up to the point of destruction of the beam
