Seismic Analysis on RC Frame Strengthened with CFRP

Article Preview

Abstract:

A nonlinear finite element method is used to analyze the dynamic property of a five-storey reinforced concrete (RC) frame structure with and without carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP). When the frame strengthened by CFRP, seismic performance of that is improved better than the frame without CFRP. The inter-story displacement angles of the frames with and without CFRP satisfy the seismic requirements from the results of earthquake transient analyses, when the frame is exposed to the frequent and rare earthquake.
