The contrast tests of 1 reinforced concrete(RC) beams and 4 RC beams strengthened with near-surface mounted carbon fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) strips have been carried out, under conditions of different damage degree of RC beams. It is mainly conducted to investigate the effects of FRP strips reinforcement of flexural strength. The experimental results indicate that significant strength on the ultimate load and rigidity of reinforced concrete beams can be realized by mounting FRP strips to the beams, and propagation of cracks were reduced obviously.

In order to investigate the strengthen effect of different embedment lengths of the NSM strip on different damage levels. A series of tests were conducted on damaged reinforced concrete (RC) beams in flexure strengthened with near surface mounted (NSM) carbon- fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips, and initial cracking load, ultimate capacity, loading-deflection curves, and failure modes are examined and analyzed in the paper. The results showed that not only the initial cracking loads and ultimate capacities of the beams are significantly increased,but also the flexural stiffness of the beams in the yield and ultimate behavior stages are improved by using NSM-CFRP strips. The strengthen effect on lower damage level RC beams has no obvious difference with that on non-damaged RC beams. Anchoring of the strip end can increase the ultimate load capacities and decrease the ductility of RC beams. Debonding was found to be the primary failure mode in all cases.
