Numerical investigation of the effectiveness of FRP and TRM in repairing corrosion damaged reinforced concrete beams
In steel reinforced concrete (RC) structures, corrosion reduces the reinforcement cross-sectional area and causes cracking and/or spalling of the concrete cover. This will reduce the strength of the structure and may cause collapse. A certain degree of structural strength can be preserved and/or inc...
