dc.description.abstractCorrosion of steel reinforcements in concrete is one of the main causes of early deterioration and reduction of service loads of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. This paper reports the results of an experimental program that was carried out to evaluate the effect of reinforcement corrosion on the flexural performance of RC beams, and to investigate the efficiency of externally bonded carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets to repair the corrosion-damaged RC beams. Seven RC beams with the same cross section and reinforcement details were prepared, including the control beam (B0). First, tension reinforcements of six RC beams were corroded by using an accelerated impress-current process to obtain corrosion levels of 15%, 30%, and 50% of weight loss, according to Faraday’s law. Then, three beams were repaired using CFRP sheets attached to the bottom surface, leaving the other three unrepaired. All beams were subjected to the four-point bending load test. The experimental results show that the corrosion specimens demonstrated a significant deterioration on the structural performance and the integrity by decreasing in their ultimate load capacity, stiffness, and ductility. The deterioration by corrosion of tension reinforcements can be successfully overcome using CFRP sheets as the repair material. The technique can restore the beam strength to its original design strength, except specimen B50F2 having severe steel-corrosion damage of 50%. A conservative value of the ultimate bending capacity of the beams with low corrosions (15%-30%) can be predicted by using RC conventional models, as suggested in ACI 318. However, the opposite trend is obtained for the high corrosion beam (50%). Appling ACI 440.2R provision to predict the ultimate flexural capacity of corroded beams repaired with CFRP sheets shows rather fair values for low corrosions (15%-30%), but significantly overestimates the strength of the high corrosion beam (50%).en_US
