Seismic strengthening scheme based on RC beam-column joints using CFRP sheets II: Mechanism analysis and verification

Pu Wang

Abstract

According to the pseudo-static tests of RC interior beam-column joints and frames,the strengthening mechanism and simplified design formulas are presented for RC joint upgraded by CFRP sheets.Based on the frames' anti-eismic requirement of Chinese building codes,the capacity spectrum analysis methods has been used to verify the seismic performance of strengthened frames under maximum earthquake response.
