This experimental study in on the strengthening effects of carbon fiber sheets on reinforced concrete beam and steel reinforced concrete beam. Total 4 beams of ordinary 2 beams and 2 beams strengthened by carbon fiber sheets were tested.
In case of reinforced concrete beam, ultimate moment capacity of strengthening beam of carbon fiber sheets is 170% of non-strengthening reinforced concrete beam. In case of steel reinforced concrete beam, ultimate moment capacity of strengthoning beam of carbon fiber sheets is 120% of non-strengthening one.
