Riassunto

Faserverstärkte Polymer-Kompositwerkstoffe werden verbreitet zur Steigerung der Festigkeit von Konstruktionen aus bewehrtem Beton eingesetzt. Messdaten und Erfahrungswerte, die zu diesem Thema bereits gesammelt wurden, waren bislang jedoch ausschließlich in der Originalliteratur zu finden. Jetzt endlich gibt es ein Buch, das Ihnen die aufwendige Recherche abnimmt, Ihnen hilft, auf vorhandene Arbeiten aufzubauen und neue Ziele festzulegen! Alle wichtigen Typen bewehrten Betons wurden berücksichtigt. Die Daten wurden so aufbereitet, dass Sie bei eigenen Entwürfen sofort darauf zurückgreifen können.

Informazioni sull?autore

J. G. Teng and J. F. Chen are the authors of FRP: Strengthened RC Structures, published by Wiley.

Dalla quarta di copertina

The strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) structures using advanced fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites, and in particular the behaviour of FRP-strengthened RC structures is a topic which has become very popular in recent years. This popularity has arisen due to the need to maintain and upgrade essential infrastructure in all parts of the world, combined with the well-known advantages of FRP composites, such as good corrosion resistance and ease for site handling due to their light weight. The continuous reduction in the material cost of FRP composites has also contributed to their popularity.

While a great amount of research now exists in the published literature on this topic, it is scattered in various journals and conference proceedings. This book therefore provides the first ever comprehensive, state-of-the-art summary of the existing research on FRP strengthening of RC structures, with the emphasis being on structural behaviour and strength models. The main topics covered include:
* bond behaviour

* flexural and shear strengthening of beams

* column strengthening

* flexural strengthening of slabs.
For each area, the methods of strengthening are discussed, followed by a description of behaviour and failure modes and then the presentation of rational design recommendations, for direct use in practical design of FRP strengthening measures.

Researchers, practicing engineers, code writers and postgraduate students in structural engineering and construction materials, as well as consulting firms, government departments, professional bodies, contracting firms and FRP material suppliers will find this an invaluable resource.
