ACI STRUCTURAL JOURNAL TECHNICAL PAPER Title no. 99-S71 Strengthening of Concrete Beams Using Innovative Ductile Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Fabric by Nabil F. Grace, George Abdel-Sayed, and Wael F. Ragheb An innovative, uniaxial ductile fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) to the flexural response of the strengthened beam. Unfortunately, fabric has been researched, developed, and manufactured (in the available FRP strengthening materials have a behavior that is Structural Testing Center at Lawrence Technological University) different from steel. Although FRP materials have high for strengthening structures. The fabric is a hybrid of two types of carbon fibers and one type of glass fiber, and has been designed to strengths, most of them stretch to relatively high strain provide a pseudo-ductile behavior with a low yield-equivalent values before providing their full strength. Because steel strain value in tension. The effectiveness and ductility of the has a relatively low yield strain value when compared with developed fabric has been investigated by strengthening and testing the ultimate strains of most of the FRP materials, the contri- eight concrete beams under flexural load. Similar beams strengthened bution of both the steel and the strengthening FRP materials with currently available uniaxial carbon fiber sheets, fabrics, and plates were also tested to compare their behavior with those differ with the deformation of the strengthened element. As strengthened with the developed fabric. The fabric has been a result, steel reinforcement may yield before the strengthened designed so that it has the potential to yield simultaneously with element gain
