Flexural and Shear Behavior of FRP Strengthened AASHTO Type Concrete Bridge Girders by Nur Yazdani, Farzia Haque, Istiaque Hasan

“…Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) are being increasingly used for the repair and strengthening of deteriorated or unsafe concrete structures, including structurally deficient concrete highway bridges. The behavior of FRP strengthened concrete bridge girders, including failure modes, failure loads, and deflections, can be determined using an analytical finite element modeling approach, as outlined in this paper. …”
