FRP strengthening or steel plate reinforcement

In structural reinforcement, FRP composite strengthening and steel plate strengthening​ are two commonly used methods in concrete structures. In the selection of reinforcement schemes, the two methods often appear simultaneously. From the point of view of the mechanism of action, the two reinforcement methods are formed by structural adhesive and concrete base material as a whole, and the two methods are similar in construction technology, often causing certain obstacles to the choice of methods.

Why wrap carbon fiber fabric?

Carbon fiber wrapping, at present the main reason is "carbon fiber heat" or can be said to be "carbon fiber line heat", do not say how the performance of the first, simply coated words, mainly forced high. Secondly, the combination of carbon fiber fabric and resin has a certain strength and hardness, and has a certain significance of protection.

Problems of steel jacketing in concrete reinforcement

External bonding steel plate or steel jacketing reinforcement method is a kind of reinforcement method of wrapping steel around reinforced concrete beams and columns. Steel jacketing reinforcement method can greatly improve the bearing capacity of the original member on the basis of increasing the section size of few members.

Concrete column strengthening method with different stress

In fact, in addition to the different modes of stress, the selection of concrete column reinforcement scheme is related to multiple factors. The scheme selection should also take into account the specific characteristics, technical and economic conditions of the original structure.

Beams Strengthened with Prestressed CFRP Strip

Reinforcement of reinforced concrete members with embedded prestressed FRP plates can significantly improve the mechanical properties of reinforced concrete members, and its mechanism and effect are similar to that of external prestressed FRP plates.

Two layer CFRP reinforcement

Compared with single-layer CFRP, double-layer CFRP bears higher tensile stress, so it needs higher performance colloid to ensure the overall force.

Bearing capacity reinforcement and seismic strengthening

Structural strengthening can not only improve the bearing capacity and durability of the structure, but also improve the seismic capacity. So can it be considered that conventional structural strengthening can simultaneously enhance the bearing capacity and seismic capacity, the two can be treated the same?

Why use small PAN tow fiber for structural reinforcement?

The tensile strength of the tow is very stable, the dispersion is small, and the coefficient of variation is below 5%. It is easy to control the performance and quality of the tow effectively in the process of production and use.

Strengthening concrete beams with FRP composite

At present, it is very common to use carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite to reinforce bridges, especially when the structure is in corrosive environment, it is more suitable to use this kind of composite material to reinforce bridges.

Structural retrofitting using FRP laminates

Cut the precured FRP laminate according to the design size. When cutting, some carbon fiber laminate should be lengthened about 150 mm for normal tensile bond strength test, taking into account the need of field inspection.

The effect of bonding steel plate reinforcement

If the area of a single empty drum is less than 10,000 mm2, it can be repaired by filling glue with borehole injection method; if the area of a single empty drum is more than 10,000 mm2, it should be removed and re-pasted steel plate with structural bonding adhesive, and re-checked and accepted.

Key points of FRP composite strengthening​

​Before FRP composite strengthening, please reconfirm whether the concrete repair surface is clean and no foreign matter. After confirmation, make sure that the bottom glue is evenly applied on the top and bottom glue, otherwise there will be bubbles in the later carbon fiber composite materials.
