Design Guidelines for Durability of Bonded CFRP Repair/Strengthening of Concrete Beams
TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Web-Only Document 155: Design Guidelines for Durability of Bonded CFRP Repair/Strengthening of Concrete Beams explores a methodology for the evaluation of durability-related strength loss of bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) systems applied to concrete beams.
The report also examines test methods to help establish a durability strength reduction factor, highlights corresponding field exposure conditions affecting durability, and includes suggestions for the application of the durability strength reduction factor for design of field applications.
