Numerical Simulations of Destructive Tests of Cast Iron Columns Strengthened with a CFRP Coating
In many cases, there is a need to reinforce the existing, sometimes very old, cast iron columns. The paper describes a proposed and completed reinforcement procedure using an external, thin coating (sleeve or jacket) made of composite (carbon fiber reinforced polymer—CFRP). The strengthening effect...
