Structural Performance of Reinforcement corrosion RC Beams Strengthened with Epoxy Mortar System

에폭시모르타르로 보강된 부식철근 RC보의 구조적 성능

The purpose of this study was to investigate the structural performance of reinforcement corrosion reinforced concrete beams strengthened with epoxy mortar system. Main test parameters are existence and the magnitude of the reinforcement corrosion and the reinforcing bar and the tensile reinforcement ratio of the specimens. eight beam specimens were tested to investigate the effectiveness of each test variables on maximum load capacity and failure mode. Test results showed that the ultimate moment of th specimens were higher tan the nominal moment and the flexural stiffness was increased about 2.5 times and the cracking moments occurred over 60% of the failure moment in comparison with same sized control beam. However, note that epoxy mortar may conduct member into brittle failure mode.
