Experimental Study of Bending Properties of CFRP Bars Concrete Beam and Crack Analysis

Article Preview

Abstract:

A test of the flexural behavior of concrete beam strengthened with sand-coated screwed CFRP bars was carried out to analyze the bending performance and cracking development process under staged loading, and different stage of crack distribution was plotted. Based on the test results, this paper discussed the crack mechanism and cracking feature of CFRP bars concrete beam under the load, and influencing factors of crack width and crack spacing were analyzed. Finally, calculation method of crack width was presented.
