INTRODUCTION In recent years there has been much research on the use offiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) to strengthen existingconcrete structure

6、s. One popular application, used widely inpractice, is to bond FRP strips externally to the tension face ofreinforced concrete (RC) beams to increase flexural capacity. The FRP strips are typically bonded directly to theprepared concrete surface using an epoxy adhesive. Thestrips may be anchored mec

If the beam is subsequentlyloaded with sustained loads, creep in the epoxy adhesivecould take place and would allow the FRP strips to unload, leaving them ineffective against the susta

Hence, althoughthe FRP strips can still assist in supporting additional live load, the increased sustained loads may exce

Research into the time-dependent behavior (creep andshrinkage) of concrete beams strengthened with externallybonded FRPs is scarce. Analytical models were verified againstlimited experimental observations of RC2 and ti

Similar approaches wereused for a composite glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP)box girder with concrete in the compression flange and a carbonfiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strip bonded to the tensionface.4 In all of the aforementioned models, how

That is, perfect bond and straincompatibility was assumed between the substrate and the FRP. Recent experiments by Choi et al.5 demonstrated thatsignificant creep under shear stresses occurs

Herein, the results of an experimental investigation andaccompanying analytical predictions of immediate and timedependentbeam deflections are described. The construction ofthe RC beams and the exp

The measureddeflections are compared to deflection predictions usingthe ACI and CEB-FIP methods implemented according tothe recommendations of Hall and Ghali.6 The long-term deflection data show that the timedependent (cre

The creep of the beam with the FRP strips could notbe predicted from the creep measured on the plain beamwhen creep of concrete alone was consid

While models exist for predictinglong-term deformation of RC beams strengthened with FRP (for example, Charkas et al.9), these models do not accountexplicitly for creep of epoxy adhesives.

18、ICANCE The potential effects of creep on RC beams strengthenedwith externally applied FRP strips are considered. It wasthought that creep in the epoxy resin might relieve stress inthe FRP, making the FRP less effective from a serviceabilitypoint of view under sustained loads. Thus, FRP strips used t

The experimental and analytical work performedrevealed that the situation is more complex. Nevertheless, creep

The reported experimental program was designed to identify the existence of epoxy creep rather than replicate apractical retrofit scenario. The results highlight the potentialfor

Each beam was 3500 mm (137.8 in.) long, 280 mm (11.02 in.) wide, and 180 mm (7.09 in.) high, reinforced

Seven 10M stirrups were spaceduniformly in each shear span of each beam. The 28-daycompressive strength of the concrete, as dete

24、ips and GFRPwraps were applied. One beam (Beam 1) was designated asa control specimen. Two CFRP strips were bonded to thetension face of the second beam (Beam 2) using an epoxyadhesive. The strips are 100 mm (3.94 in.) wide, 1.2 mm (0.047 in.) thick, and 2970 mm (116.9 in.) long. Over theshear spans at each end of Beam 2, GFRP sheets werewrapped in a U-shape to cover the two side faces and thetension face of the beam. The CFRP strips are unidirectionalwith the fibers aligned along the length of the beam. Thestrips have a modulus of
