Numerical Simulation on Ultimate Bearing Capacity of FRP Reinforced Concrete Notched Beams

Article Preview

Abstract:

: In this research, some concrete three-point bending specimens (beams) reinforced by FRP are used in numerical simulation to study the influence of the reinforcement on fracture mechanism and the extreme load-bearing capacity of the specimens. The numerical simulation results show the propagation of the crack in concrete is controlled by using FRP. Meanwhile the load-bearing capacity is increased greatly and failure modes are changed.
