Abstract: |
The research program presented here contains a short theoretical and experimental study upon the reinforced concrete columns retrofitted using composite materials. The aim is to clarify some of the aspects regarding the ductility of these types of elements. One part of the study is that it aims to establish the type of interaction between two methods of retrofitting, namely in bending and by confinement. The actual codes present only the computational methods for each individual situation, but not for the superposition of the two retrofitting methods. |
