This book presents a detailed study of the flexural strengthening of reinforced and prestressed concrete members using fibre reinforced polymer composite plates. The authors also discuss plate bonding onto other engineering materials such as steel and cast iron. The book has been designed for practising civil and structural engineers seeking to understand the principles and design technology of plate bonding, and for final year undergraduates and postgraduate engineers studying the principles of highway and bridge engineering and structural engineering.

The in situ rehabilitation or upgrading of reinforced concrete members using bonded steel plates is an effective, convenient and economic method of improving structural performance. However, disadvantages inherent in the use of steel have stimulated research into the possibility of using fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) materials in its place, providing a non-corrosive, more versatile strengthening system.This book presents a detailed study of the flexural strengthening of reinforced and prestressed concrete members using fibre reinforces polymer composite plates. It is based to a large

Over the past three decades advanced polymer composites have emerged as an attractive construction material for new structures and the strengthening/rehabilitation of existing buildings and bridges. The techniques associated with the technology, analysis and design of polymer composites in construction are continually being researched and the progress made with this exciting material will continue at an ever- increasing rate to meet the demands of the construction industry. This volume of proceedings is from the Second ACIC 2004 International Conference, which focused on the application and fu
