Abstract

The paper established the calculation formulas on the average crack spacing and the maximum crack width of CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer)reinforced concrete beam under the secondary loading. Conversion of CFRP plate area into the reinforcement ratio of the reinforced beam, the calculation formula on the average crack spacing of CFRP reinforced concrete beam under the secondary loading was established. On basis of the calculation formula on the maximum crack width of concrete beam, the calculation formula on the maximum crack width of CFRP reinforced concrete beam under the secondary loading was established. The average crack spacing and the maximum crack width calculated by the formulas in the paper were compared with the test data, it was verified that the formula is correct.
