Overview:Overview:Overview:Laboratory Investigation:– Evaluated the feasibility of using CFRP plates in
strengthening steel-concrete composite beams
– Tested ten small-scale, steel-concrete composite beams» Two different arrangements of CFRP and two different
levels of damage were investigated
Field Investigation:– Used CFRP plates to strengthen an existing, structurally deficient
steel girder bridge– Investigating short- and long-term effectiveness– Identified changes in structural behavior due to the addition of the
strengthening system

Nonlinear Analysis:Nonlinear Analysis:Nonlinear Analysis:
Developed and validated an analytical model to investigate the impact of the following variables:
– Area of the tension flange removed– CFRP plate ultimate strain– Area of CFRP added – CFRP stiffness– Compressive strength of deck slab concrete– Yield strength of the steel section being strengthened

Concluding Remarks….Concluding RemarksConcluding Remarks……..
Strength of damaged steel girders can be fully restored with the use of CFRP plates
Stiffness of repaired steel girders is greater than that of the damaged girder, however not fully restored to that of the undamaged girder
