| Abstract | In recent years, existing concrete structures in North America have reached a state where many of them can no longer safely resist the loads acting on them due to electo-chemical corrosion and to increased load requirements, among other factors. Fibre-reinforced polymers (FRP's) have demonstrated good performance in retrofitting and repairing these deteriorated concrete structures, through both research studies and field applications. However, because of a lack of available information and the perceived susceptibility of these systems in fire, an experimental and analytical study is being conducted on the fire performance of FRP's and FRP-strengthened concrete structural members. The ultimate goal of the study is to provide design recommendations and guidelines that can be suggested for these types of structural members. This paper presents the procedure used in developing a model for the heat transfer and structural analysis of rectangular FRP-strengthened reinforced concrete columns in numerical fire simulation models. Preliminary results and partial validation of the analytical model are presented. |
