![]() Concrete member strengthening measures can take the form of, for example, flexural strengthening with externally bonded (surface-mounted) CFRP strips, CF sheets and steel plates, flexural strengthening with CFRP strips bonded in slits (near-surface-mounted reinforcement), shear strengthening with externally bonded CF sheets and steel plates, and column strengthening with CF sheets as confining reinforcement. This book explains the design rules, together with their background, and uses examples to illustrate their use, specifically for slabs, beams and columns. Existing concrete members can be strengthened by using adhesives to bond additional reinforcing elements onto or into those members. Design and construction in existing contexts is becoming increasingly important, and often the structures - sometimes of historical interest - can be preserved easily and at minimum cost by employing strengthening measures. ![]()
