Damaged RC beams strengthened with GFRP
Abstract In recent years one of the most important duty of civil engineers is to define methods of rehabilitation both for historic and modern structures. Reinforced concrete is a relatively modern material of construction and it is often damaged both with cracking due to loading or corrosion of reinforcement.

Shear capacity in concrete beams reinforced by stirrups with two different inclinations [PDF]
A model for the estimation of shear capacity in Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams with web reinforcement is provided by introducing a generalization of classical plastic Nielsen’s model, which is based on the variable-inclination stress-field approach.

Mechanical Properties of Fire-Damaged RC Beams Reinforced with Carbon Fiber Mesh
The bearing capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) beam will be weakened by fire. It is necessary to strengthen RC beams after fire. The carbon fiber mesh (CFM) can be used to reinforce RC beams. In this paper, RC beams were exposed to varying temperatures,

Long-Term Behavior of RC Beams Strengthened with Hybrid Composite Beam
This paper describes the results of long-term tests on reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with hybrid composite beam (HCB) under two different sustained loads. Test specimens were fabricated to reflect the most common RC beam size used in school
