Additional information

Strengthening reinforced concrete structures is a relevant topic for much of the existing infrastructure. Applications include repairing structures degraded by aging or local damage and retrofitting structures to adapt them to increasing traffic or new conditions of loading. Strengthening using Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) sheets externally bonded has been used widely in practice. This paper summarizes the findings from an experimental programme on shear strengthening using CFRP which is considerably less researched and quantified, compared to flexural strengthening. The paper proposes a design approach based on Eurocode 2 which can be applied in practice.
