Abstract
In this study, continuous fiber ropes were applied for shear reinforcement of RC members such as beams and columns. The fixing and covering materials for the rope on concrete surface and the rope winding interval were examined. Shear loading tests were conducted to RC beams reinforced with a continuous fiber rope. In order to utilize the capacity of continuous fiber ropes for shear reinforcement of RC members, we proposed a method to fix ropes with acrylic resin and then to cover them with HPFRCC (High Performance Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composite) on concrete surface.
