Behavior of GFRP Strengthened Reinforced Concrete Columns under Large Eccentric Compression Load

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper compares three standards of FRP strengthened concrete columns published by ACI committee, Concrete Society and China respectively. A test is designed according to the comparison. A total of five columns were cast and tested. The analysis of the load bearing capacity and ductility of the test result indicates that wrapping hoop GFRP can enhance load bearing capacity slightly and the ductility greatly, wrapping axial GFRP can enhance load bearing capacity greatly but the failure of column is brittle, wrapping axial GFRP over-wrapped with hoop GFRP can both enhance load bearing capacity and the ductility.
