Refuerzo de elementos estructurales mediante bandas de acero adheridas con resinas epóxicas

Abstract

This paper presents the results of test carried out on reinforced concrete beams strengthened by epoxy-bonded steel plates in the Universidad Nacional de Colombia. The test shown the very good behavior of reinforced beams whit additional bonded plates when they have additional anchor plates that can overcome the problem of anchorage failure. When the reinforced beam does not have additional anchor plates, the beam present greater values of stiffness, but they have a non-ductile behavior.
