Rehabilitation of Concrete Structures with Fiber-Reinforced Polymer

Rehabilitation of Concrete Structures with Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) is a complete guide to the use of FRP in flexural, shear, and axial strengthening of Concrete Structures. Through worked design examples, the authors guide readers through the details of usage, including anchorage systems, different materials and methods of repairing concrete structures using these techniques. In the first chapter the authors introduce the usage of FRP in concrete structure repair. Chapter two discusses concrete structures deterioration and rehabilitation. Chapter three provides an overview of methods of structural rehabilitation and strengthening. Chapter four reviews the design basis for FRP systems including strengthening limits, fire endurance, and environmental considerations. Chapter five covers the strengthening of members under flexural stress including failure modes, design procedures, examples, and anchorage detailing. Chapter six cover strengthening members under shear and torsion stress. Chapter seven covers axial strengthening. Chapter eight discusses the installation of FRP systems. Chapter nine presents FRP strengthening against extreme loads such as earthquakes and fire, following the latest major design manuals. Chapter ten covers the inspection test, evaluation and monitoring of the repaired structure. Chapter eleven brings three complete case studies from around the world. Chapter twelve discusses the durability of externally bonded systems. Chapter thirteen cover advanced theoretical techniques. Chapter fourteen offers the authors conclusions and recommendations. This book provides researchers and practitioners in concrete repair a comprehensive reference on the usage of FRP. The worked design examples together with extensive coverage of the latest design manuals and codes are particularly helpful to those facing challenges in civil infrastructure rehabilitation projects.
