Abstract:Abstract:One of the most critical characteristics of concrete structures is the brittleness of the concrete and hence the concrete is vulnerable to tension force. To overcome this drawback, the use of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets and/or plates laminated on the surface of concrete structures has increased. However, the efficiency of the CFRP reinforcement to endure the tension force is reduced when the CFRP sheets and/or plates are delaminated from the concrete structures due to external loads … Show more
