Abstract

In this study, experimental investigations were conducted regarding shear reinforcing effect of reinforced concrete (RC) beams by means of continuous fiber reinforced plastics materials such as carbon fiber sheet, polyethylene fiber sheet and polyethylene fiber net. The experimental results on ultimate shear strength of the beams were compared with calculations based on design and construction guideline of continuous fiber reinforced concrete published by AIJ. As a result, it was shown that shear reinforcing effect were obtained regarding ultimate shear strength of the RC beams strengthened with continuous fiber reinforced plastics materials, and the design guideline gives reasonable accuracy for calculation of ultimate shear strength of the beams.
