Near-Surface-Mounted CFRP Ropes as External Shear Reinforcement for the Rehabilitation of Substandard RC Joints

Near-Surface-Mounted CFRP Ropes as External Shear Reinforcement for the Rehabilitation of Substandard RC Joints

The effectiveness of an innovative retrofit scheme using near-surface-mounted (NSM) X-shaped CFRP ropes for the strengthening of substandard RC beam–column joints was investigated experimentally. Three large-scale beam–column joint subassemblages were constructed with poor reinforcement details. One...
