Strengthening of Reinforced Concrete Structures with Carbon ...
The strengthening of existing reinforced concrete structures (RC) with carbon reinforced concrete (CRC) has a high potential to save resources and to increase the lifespan of the whole strengthened structure immensely. However, when strengthening structures with CRC, in some cases, failure due to concrete cover separation is detected, leading to the fact that the potential of the carbon ...
Carbon reinforced concrete is a composite material used for strengthening , consisting of a fine-grained concrete matrix and a carbon grid, arranged load-oriented in the concrete cross section.

Carbon reduction and strength enhancement in functionally graded ...
This leads to inefficiencies in concrete utilisation and embodied carbon . This research addresses these inefficiencies and investigates a novel approach to the enhancement of the environmental and mechanical performance of reinforced concrete structures .
The possibility of premature de-bonding between the existing concrete structure and the externally added strengthening material, such as carbon fiber- reinforced polymers (CFRP), is one of the most crucial challenges for the external strengthening of concrete members.
