        abstract = {One of the challenges engineers are facing today is reinforcement of reinforced concrete beams. Although there are several ways of going about it, textile-reinforced concrete has gained momentum in engineering. In comparison to conventional methods of reinforcement, the benefits developed by TRC are immense and can therefore be used for various purposes. The reinforcing of textiles with glass or carbon fibers makes them a combination suitable for generating strong material superior to that of conventional concrete. This is because it enables the construction of structures such as foundations, bridges, and beams among others with high strength. This article looks at how TRC material can be used to reinforce existing beams and analyzes the performance gains using ANSYS.},
