Methods for in-situ reinforcing of concrete building structures with external reinforcement based on carbon fiber to restore their service able technical state

In this article, a method is proposed for calculating the reinforcement of concrete ceiling slabs with carbon composite materials based on the finite element model in the computer program SCAD Office PC. This method allows the most complete and accurate representation to be obtained of the structure stress-strain state before and after reinforcement with composite materials. Therefore, it allows high-quality designing and reduces the cost conducting calculations and tests on a large scale. The design values are taken from the initial data, and include conclusions based on the results of analysis of the technical state of the structuresand drawings from the calculation section of the CS (reinforced concrete structures).
