Concrete Society TR 55 Design Guidance for Strengthening Concrete Structures using Fibre Composite Materials. 1st Edition
This Report provides authoritative guidance for structural designers on strengthening concrete buildings and bridges by bonding fibre composite to the surface. This relatively new technique is proving to be much quicker and more cost-effective than established techniques using steel plates, but guidance has been lacking until now. The Report explains the advantages and disadvantages of the technique and gives examples of applications. It explains the design approach in detail and discusses workmanship, installation, inspection and maintenance. The second edition of this Report reflects the fact that materials and techniques have developed rapidly along with their range of applications. Significant changes covered in the new edition include modification of the treatment of partial safety factors in the design process, and design of members in shear, to provide a less empirical approach, amongst others.
