A Theoretical and Numerical Approach to Ensure Ductile Failure in Strengthened Reinforced Concrete Slabs with Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Sheets

While fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets effectively enhance the flexural strength of reinforced concrete (RC) slabs, excessive flexural strengthening can reduce ductility and lead to brittle failure. This study provides an overview of the failure limits for the end spans of continuous RC slabs,...
