Abstract

In this paper analytical analysis has been carried out on Reinforced Concrete beam strengthen by Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) laminate using ANSYS software. Effect of width of the beam and thickness of Fiber Reinforced Polymer FRP laminate are the parameters used to study the behavior of the beam. Four full span 3D beam specimens were modeled. One among these models is Reinforced Concrete beam and other three are RCC beams with FRP laminate. Load versus deflection and variation of stress intensity has been studied in this paper.
