Abstract
The compressive strength of fiber reinforced polymer(FRP) confined concrete is an important parameter in the design of FRP strengthen concrete structure. Most existing compressive strength models of FRP-confined concrete column were obtained by regression analysis of experimental data, and only few models were established based on theoretical derivation method. Therefore, it is necessary to expand the compressive strength model, which is established based on theoretical derivation. In this paper, the existing models of compressive strength of FRP-confined concrete columns were summarized and evaluated with a large number of published experimental data. Then based on the Griffith failure criterion, a unified model that could predict the compressive strength of both FRP-confined undamaged and damaged concrete was proposed and evaluated. The evaluation results show that the new compressive strength model can accurately predict the compressive strength of FRP-confined undamaged and damaged concrete.
