Abstract
The present paper deals with shear strengthening of reinforced concrete bea ms by means of thin fiber-reinforced composite plates. First, the theoretic al model is presented. It is then applied to the shear strengthening of a T -beam. This beam is also used to investigate the effects of some design par ameters on the ultimate shear strength. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.
