    RC beam strengthening using precast RC plate bonding technique; [Ojačanje ab greda tehnikom povezivanja s predgotovljenom ab pločom]
    (Union of Croatian Civil Engineers and Technicians, 2015) Demir A.; Bagci M.; Tekin M.; Nuhoglu A.
    The behaviour of RC beams strengthened with precast RC plates of rectangular and U cross-section is studied in the paper. An experimental investigation was conducted to assess effectiveness of strengthening with precast plates. The investigation was supported with the 2-D nonlinear finite element analysis (NLFEA). The NLFEA results showed agood level of correlation with test results. The proposed technique is considered to be a good alternative to RC jacketing and the technique is practical, economical and reliable for buildings or bridges with a greater number sisof similar beams.
