Laboratory and Numerical Analysis of Steel Cold-Formed Sigma Beams Retrofitted by Bonded CFRP Tapes
In this paper, the retrofitting method of thin-walled, cold-formed sigma beams using bonded carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) tapes is proposed. The effectiveness of the presented strengthening method is investigated by the means of laboratory tests and numerical analysis conducted on simply su...
