From: Rapid Repair of Severely Damaged RC Columns with Different Damage Conditions: An Experimental Study
Repaired column | Failure mode | Â |
---|---|---|
Column 1-R (T/MÂ =Â 0) | Premature failure related to the detailing of the longitudinal CFRP anchorage system, followed by fracture of two additional longitudinal reinforcing steel bars | Flexure dominant |
Column 2-R (T/MÂ =Â 0.2) | Rupture of CFRP (flexure), crushing of concrete in the repaired region | |
Column 3-R (T/MÂ =Â 0.4) | Testing terminated due to limitations of the actuators | |
Column 4-R (T/MÂ =Â 0.6) | Crushing of concrete in the unrepaired region (torsion) followed by CFRP rupture next to the unrepaired region | Torsion dominant |
Column 5-R (T/M = ∞) | Rupture of CFRP, crushing of concrete (torsion) |
