Flexural performance

This paper investigates flexural behavior and analytical approach for predicting the load and deflection at critical performance points of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with prestressed carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. A finite element model is developed to simulate the interaction between the RC beam and the CFRP sheets, capturing key aspects such as failure modes, ultimate load, and mechanical behavior across the three phases of failure.

This paper presents an investigation into the flexural behaviour of basalt FRP reinforced concrete beams through experimental and analytical methods. To achieve the research objectives, four concrete beams reinforced with steel and four identical concrete beams reinforced with BFRP bars were tested under four-point bending.
