Abstract:This research paper investigates the impact of wrapping thickness and type on reinforced bridge piers through a numerical study. The Incesu bridge, located in the Ardanuç district of Artvin province, was selected as the case study, as it was completed with low concrete strength. Initially, the bridge was examined, revealing that the piers were inadequate against dynamic, dead, pedestrian, and covering loads. The study concentrated on employing carbon fiber reinforced polymer to reinforce the bridge piers. Vari… Show more
