... studied the effects of HFRP on strengthening and repair of heated, damaged reinforced concrete (RC) beams. This paper investigates, both experimentally and analytically, the performance of externally strengthened and repaired RC beams, in flexure, with different FRP configurations of CFRP and GFRP...

..., the RC element is exposed to elevated temperatures. However, the primary differences between the fire and processed temperatures are the rate of temperature increase, mode of exposure and exposure durations. In order to determine the effect of two heating modalities, RC beams were exposed to processed...

... of this paper is to review and assess the application of an existing time-equivalent method in the performance-based design of reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Design/methodology/approach The assessment is established by computationally developing the moment-curvature response of RC beam sections during fire...

... are restricted, additional axial stresses will be induced. In this case the various support conditions can have a significant influence on fire resistance of reinforced concrete elements. In this paper three different support conditions as: pin-pin, pin-fixed and fully fixed were used to model RC beams...
