  • Abstract:
  • The study evaluates on the nonlinear finite element analysis of shear deficient beams (SD) using Aramid Fiber reinforced polymer (AFRP). The shear deficient beam is strengthened with epoxy impregnated AFRP by varying thickness and orientation are modelled using ANSYS Software. The result obtained is then compared with control beam and shear deficient beam. Shear deficient beams externally strengthened with one layer of AFRP in Shear span and two layers of AFRP Strip of 50 mm width at the bottom of the beam are modeled and analysed. AFRP Fabric in the shear span is oriented at angles 450 and 600. The thickness of AFRP fabric is selected as 0.286. The analysis is done using ANSYS software. The parameters taken into account are the percentage increase in the maximum load carrying capacity and load deformation behaviour of epoxy-impregnated AFRP specimens.
