    The document provides guidelines for strengthening concrete structures using externally bonded fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) systems. It specifies that FRP strengthening should resist tensile forces while maintaining strain compatibility with the concrete substrate and should not be used to resist compressive forces. Minimum requirements are a concrete compressive strength of 2500 psi and tensile strength of 200 psi. An assessment of a building found the columns had a compressive strength of 1487 psi and beams/slabs were 2350 psi, below the minimum, so other parameters did not need to be verified.

    Ref: ACI 440.

    2R-02
    Guide for the design and construction of externally bonded FRP systems for strengthening
    concrete structures
    Scopes: FRP strengthening systems should be designed to resist tensile forces while maintaining
    strain compatibility between the FRP and concrete substrate. FRP reinforcement should not be
    relied upon to resist compressive forces.
    Minimum requirements:
    Minimum concrete compressive strength, fc = 2500 psi
    Minimum concrete tensile strength 200 psi.

    Present Condition of the Subject Structure (Stitching building-01_Z&Z)


    Concrete Compressive strength,
    1. Columns, fc = 1487 psi
    2. Beams and slabs, fc = 2350 psi
    The structure does not meet the primary criterion (concrete compressive strength), therefore others
    required parameters are not required to verify.
    Note: If the structure meet the minimum requirement of concrete compressive strength, then
    additionally tensile strength of concrete needs to confirm. Also failure type needs to be accounted.
