The paper discusses the results of an experimental investigation carried out on reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened in shear by externally bonded fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) sheets. The study is devoted to analyze the role that the transverse steel reinforcement and the beam slenderness ratio could play on the resistant mechanism of RC beams strengthened in shear by FRP composites. The results are summarized and analyzed in detail in the paper in terms of shear capacity, cracking pattern and shear resisting contribution of FRP.

Different methods are used for retrofitting RC members. One of the new methods in this field is using externally bonded fiber-reinforced Concrete (FRC) sheets in order to increase RC member’s shear and flexural strength. In this study, applicability of ultra-high performance fiber-reinforced concrete sheets in shear and flexural retrofitting of RC beams was investigated. In total, eight RC beams (dimensions 10×20×150 cm) with two different bending capacity and lack of shear strength were used and were tested in 3-points bending test. Of these, four were control beams and four were retrofitted with laterally bonded UHPFRC sheets. Dimensions of the sheets used for retrofitting were (3×15×126 cm). Also FEM analysis was used to model the effect of The method. the results show that this method can be well used for retrofitting RC beams. In this method the way of connecting sheets to beam’s surfaces has a fundamental role in behavior of retrofitted beams.

This paper present results and discussions on an experiment study on the impact of corrosion ratio to the RC beams under fatigue and monotonic loads. Seven reinforced beams with the same steel type, concrete cover, steel diameter and ratio were test. The effect of corrosion ratio on flexural stiffness of these RC beams was discussed. Based on fatigue and monotonic test for these beams, the most investigated parameters in this experimental study were distortion, stress distribution, ultimate load of corroded reinforced concrete beams. The results indicate that the effect of corrosion ratio on flexural stiffness of RC beams is very obviously, curvatures of corroded beams increase monotonically with degree of corrosion. Fatigue loading has great impact on the performance of corroded RC beams; it can reduce the ultimate strength and ductility of the beams significantly as corrosion ratio increase.
