...Many studies [1–4,7–10] have been undertaken on the RC beams retrofitted in flexural by FRP sheets through experimental, finite element and analytical approaches....
[...]
...The studies have shown that the beams strengthened with FRP in flexural strengthening would avoid the debonding failure mode when a carefully designed anchorage is applied [1,7,10–13], which gives a good flexural performance in terms of strength and ductility....
