Comparative Experimental Investigation on Flexural Performance and Crack Evolution of RC Beams Strengthened with Varying Ply Numbers of GFRP and CFRP
Existing studies on FRP strengthening have largely focused on a single material, with limited systematic comparison of GFRP and CFRP systems at varying ply numbers under consistent conditions. This study comparatively investigates the bearing performance of full-span stirrup-reinforced RC beams externally bonded with G...
