The stiffness of reinforced concrete simple beams strengthened with carbon fiber sheets is studied in this paper. The calculation formulas of it are discussed, for steel yielding and not yielding. The stiffness increases with the number of carbon fiber layer or reinforcement ratio increases.

In this paper, it makes a preliminary study on the material of carbon fiber sheet to reinforce rough sleeper beam in order to enhance the magnitude of ultimate flexural bearing capacity. Considering the actual construction technology and environment, four reinforced concrete sleeper beams are used to experiment simulation to study the influence of carbon fiber sheet to ultimate flexural bearing capacity of reinforced concrete structures. Experiment results show that pasting two layers of carbon fiber sheet under reinforced concrete beam can have about a 25% increase in flexural bearing capacity.

A new inorganic nonmetallic cementing material rather than epoxy resin was adopted in carbon fiber sheet (CFS) strengthened concrete beams and slabs in this paper. Firstly, the types of inorganic adhesive were introduced and double-shear tests and the compressive strength of specimens as a function of temperature were studied to prove the effectiveness of inorganic adhesive in CFS strengthened concrete beams and slabs was studied. The practice shows that MPB has good performance when applying at high temperature. RC beams and slabs strengthened with new inorganic adhesives sticked FRP sheets are feasible. The appearance of MPB renders an extensive prospect for carbon fiber sheet (CFS) application in building structure reinforcement.

Abstract In this study, the flexural bearing capacity and failure mechanism of carbon fiber-reinforced aluminum laminate (CARALL) beams with a double-channel cross-section and a 3/2 laminated configuration were experimentally and numerically studied. Two types of specimens using different carbon fiber layup configurations ([0°/90°/0°]3 and [45°/0°/−45°]3) were fabricated using the pressure molding thermal curing forming process. The double-channel CARALL beams were subjected to static three-point bending tests to determine their failure behaviors in terms of ultimate bearing capacity and failure modes. Owing to the shortcomings of the two-dimensional Hashin failure criterion, the user-defined FORTRAN subroutine VUMAT suitable for the ABAQUS/Explicit solver and an analysis algorithm were established to obtain a progressive damage prediction of the CFRP layer using the three-dimensional Hashin failure criterion. Various failure behaviors and mechanisms of the CARALL beams were numerically analyzed. The results indicated that the numerical simulation was consistent with the experimental results for the ultimate bearing capacity and final failure modes, and the failure process of the double-channel CARALL beams could be revealed. The ultimate failure modes of both types of double-channel CARALL beams were local buckling deformation at the intersection of the upper flange and web near the concentrated loading position, which was mainly caused by the delamination failure among different unidirectional plates, tension and compression failure of the matrix, and shear failure of the fiber layers. The ability of each fiber layer to resist damage decreased in the order of 90° fiber layer > 0° fiber layer > 45° fiber layer. Thus, it is suggested that 90°, 0°, and 45° fiber layers should be stacked for double-channel CARALL beams.

The shear resistant with SWR (steel wire rope) external prestressing is a kind of new type of reinforcement technique. The advantages of the method are ideal reinforcement effect, durability, and convenient construction. So the method has been paid attention by more and more scientists and technical workers. Through the experiment of 1 basic beam and 3 strengthened beams which are in different dead load levels, the influence of damage degree of original beams and the dead load level of strengthened beams are analyzed. The reduction coefficient values of shear capacity under different dead load level are researched. The research is shown that: with the dead load level increasing, the improve degree of shear capacity of strengthened concrete beams is smaller. The mathematical model is established, which is about dead load level and reduction coefficient of shear capacity of strengthened concrete beams. The result is to take 0.75 as the reduction coefficient of shear capacity. The value is reasonable in calculating the shear bearing capacity of strengthened beams under dead load.
