Analytical Study on the Determination of Shape for Connector of Seismic Reinforced Strip

Abstract

In this study, a shape of connector on seismic reinforced strip, which did not cause any physical damage to concrete column and can repair and reinforcement was decided by using nonlinear finite element analysis. Load displacement was applied on the concrete attached by strip. Stress distribution of connector by extension of concrete were checked. Through stress distribution of this analysis results, the most favorable shape was selected as a shape of the connector.
