Performance Of Fire-Damaged Reinforced Concrete Rectangular Columns Retrofitted With Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites

In this experimental study, a total of twenty-one rectangular RC columns have been prepared and tested under axial compression test in three groups: un-heated, heated, heated-and-repaired with FRP. The objectives of the study were firstly to study the effect of fire temperature at 500°C and 600°C...
