STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOUR OF REINFORCED CONCRETE (RC) SLABS WITH OPENING STRENGTHENED USING CARBON FIBRE REINFORCED POLYMER (CFRP)

Concrete slabs with opening are usually designed with the help of traditional rules of thumb proposed by building codes. Such methods however introduced limitations concerning size of opening and the location of applied loads. Furthermore, there is a lack of sufficient information about the load...
