ANALYTICAL STUDY ON STRENGTHENING OF RC CANTILEVER BEAMS WITH COMPOSITE MATERIALS BY ANSYS SOFTWARE
Keywords:
Ansys, Composite Element, FRP, Finite Element AnlysisAbstract
This paper deals with study of the behaviour of RC beam using different types of rebar materials such as steel and composite. RC beams can be retrofitted by FRP. FRP is one of effective technique for retrofit of beam, number of FRP available in current market namely CFRP, GFRP, KFRP, ARAMID, BORON. For analysis of steel and composite materials we are using CFRP&GFRP materials by ANSYS software for obtaining good results. In this paper we are showing solution for both steel reinforcement beam and FRP beam, and parameters calculated are displacement, shear stress, flexural strength and also graph is plotted between stress v/s strain.
