Strengthen shear capacity of an existing reinforced concrete shear wall
Strengthen shear capacity of an existing reinforced concrete shear wall
(OP)
Dear all,
I need to seismic rehabilitation for an existing reinforced concrete shear wall in the matter of shear capacity. Could you please suggest a a solution for that? Adding more shear wall is not possible in my case, so should I use steel sheet, fibre reinforced polymer...or ??
I am new in this issue, so could you please suggest me a textbook (paper...) that I can find some useful information?
Thank you
Lisu

I don't have a photo to show you.

You also need to consider access (2 sided or single sided application), development of the FRP at wall element ends, magnitude of the proposed shear capacity increase etc
