- Title
FRP Retrotitted Concrete under Fire Conditions.
- Authors
Kodur, Venkatesh; Bisby, Luke A.; Green, Mark F.
- Abstract
The article discusses the results of various fire tests and field applications of insulated concrete building elements retrofitted with fiber-reinforced polymers in the U.S. According to the authors, most fiber-reinforced polymer retrofitted members need adequate fire protection to achieve the required endurance ratings under increased service road levels. Due to the insulation system, the existing concrete members attained only mildly increased internal temperatures during fire.
