Flexural Strengthening of RC Columns with Low Longitudinal Steel Ratio using GFRP Bars

Abstract This research describes the results of an experimental work that aimed to investigate the flexural capacity of RC columns with low longitudinal reinforcement ratio that was strengthened with near surface mounted GFRP bars. The experimental program consisted of four square reinforced concret...
