This study was conducted to investigate the confinement effect of circular specimens were confined to fiber composites (CF, GF, P·E·T, etc.). According to the test results, the cylinders strengthened with CFRP and GFRP showed improved strength and ductility when compared with the control cylinder. As the number of FRP sheets increased, load-carrying capacity increased, but ductility decreased. The specimen strengthened with PET indicated negligible strength improvement, but showed substantial ductility.
