Experimental investigations on the flexural and shear behavior of RC beams strengthened using continuous GFRP sheets were carried out. Externally reinforced concrete beams with epoxy-bonded GFRP sheets were tested to failure using a symmetrical two point concentrated static loading system. Two sets of beams were casted for this experimental test program. In SET I three beams weak in flexure were casted, out of which one was controlled beam and other two beams were strengthened using continuous GFRP sheets in flexure. In SET II three beams weak in shear were casted, out of which one was the...
