Abstract

The structural strengthening of the survive reinforced concrete(RC) infrastructure has become important. This is due to stagnation of these structure as a result of ageing, environmental induced degradation, lack of maintenance etc.As a result, fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) is used for retrofitting and buttress these structures.The composite material (FRP) build of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers Also FRP have excellent performance both in term of bonding and load carrying capacity.
