Design and fatigue behavior of near-surface mounted CFRP bars for shear strengthening of RC bridge girders

Creator:

Johnson, Brandon Ang

Abstract:

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) materials are emerging as an effective means of strengthening and rehabilitating bridges. Near surface mounting (NSM) is a newer technique for application of CFRP for retrofitting of bridge members that provides advantages over conventional strengthening techniques. The technique is still new and uncertainties remain regarding...
