Seismic Performance of Reinforced Concrete Exterior Beam-Column Joints Strengthened with Different Anchorage Length of Embedded CFRP Rods
In this study, experimental research was carried out to improve and evaluate the seismic performance of reinforced exterior concrete beam-column joint strengthened with different anchorage length of embedded CFRP Rods in existing reinforced concrete building.
Test result shows that retrofitting specimen(RBCJ-SR2T1, SR2T2) designed by the improvement of seismic performance of reinforced concrete beam-column joints, maximum load-carrying capacities were increased 2.24 ~ 2.24 times in comparison with the standard specimen(RBCJC). Also, retrofitting specimens showed stable hysteretic behavior compared to the standard specimen(RBCJC).
