PENGGUNAAN CARBON FIBER REINFORCED PLATE SEBAGAI BAHAN KOMPOSIT EKSTERNAL PADA STRUKTUR BALOK BETON BERTULANG

ABSTRACT: The flexural strengthening of reinforced concrete beam can be considered with applied externally bonded steel plate or carbon fiber composite. This external plate is bonded to the tension face of the concrete beam. Experimental study on reinforced  concrete  strengthening  with  Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plate  (CFRP)  has  been  conducted  to  estimate  the effectiveness  of  using CFRP  on  the  concrete  structure  as flexural  strengthening  material  and  external  reinforcement. Two  beams  were  provided  in  this  study  to  test  the  flexural  strengthening  effect  of  externally  bonded CFRP  composite. One  of  them  was  used  for  normal  condition (BT). The  other  specimen  is  the  reinforced concrete  beam  with  single  steel reinforcement  and  laminated CFRP  (BTF). On  the  second beam, CFRP  laminated  on  the  bottom  of  beam  with  epoxy. Dimension of the beams are 150/250 mm with effective length 1900 mm. All beams were tested using two-point loading to get pure bending in the middle span. The result of the experimental research showed that the ultimate load of the beam with externally bonded CFRP( BTF)  is 49% higher than BT; stiffness of the strengthened beam BTF is 68% higher than BT; and cracking moment of the strengthened beam BTF is 50% higher than BT. However, the deformation and ductility of the strengthened beam BTF  is lower than BT 77.6% and 73% respectively.. The failure phenomenon of the concrete beam with laminated CFRP is prior debonding CFRP that makes maximum performance of the CFRP not be reached.
Key words: Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plate (CFRP), flexural strengthening, reinforced concrete beam, debonding failure
