Strengthening of reinforced concrete structures : using externally-bonded FRP composites in structural and civil engineering

This book presents a detailed study of the flexural strengthening of reinforced and prestressed concrete members using fibre reinforced polymer composite plates. The authors also discuss plate bonding onto other engineering materials such as steel and cast iron. The book has been designed for practi...
