  • Abstract:
  • Corrosion of steel reinforcement from chloride exposure can compromise the strength of reinforced concrete structures. Rust formation expands, applying pressure on concrete, resulting in cracks and spalling. Prompt repair is crucial for severe cases of spalling. This research assessed the efficacy of repair strategies for reinforced concrete beams post-spalling, including grouting and different techniques involving Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) reinforcement. Fiber reinforced Polymer (FRP) composites are currently employed in the civil engineering industry as externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) of existing reinforced concrete (RC) and masonry structures and as internal reinforcement of concrete elements as an alternative to steel reinforcing bars. Carbon FRP (CFRP) composites are mainly used for EBR applications whereas glass.
