Abstract
About the strength of beams of heavy concrete using steel, carbon fiber and combined reinforcement located in two rows
Incoming article date: 28.11.2013The article discusses issues related to the strength of the normal sections of reinforced concrete beams in which the steel reinforcement is completely or partially replaced by a carbon fiber rod arranged in two rows. Found that the strength of these beams is only 13% higher than that of the reference.
